Calendars
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
Creating a calendar
|
|
-------------------
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
If you use the calendar the first time, there will be already a calendar called
|
|
"Default calendar". You can manage your calendars with a click on the "Calendar"
|
|
button in the top right corner. In the dialog, which will appear, you can add,
|
|
edit, export, enable, disable and delete your calendars. There will be also a
|
|
link for CalDav access.
|
|
|
|
Synchronising Calendars with CalDav
|
|
-----------------------------------
|
|
|
|
You can access your calendars with CalDAV-compatible programs like
|
|
Kontact, Evolution, Thunderbird using the following URL::
|
|
|
|
http://ADDRESS/apps/calendar/caldav.php
|
|
|
|
To use the ownCloud calendar with Apple iCal you will need to use the following
|
|
URL, including the trailing slash::
|
|
|
|
http://ADDRESS/apps/calendar/caldav.php/principals/username/
|
|
|
|
Mozilla Lightning users need to this URL scheme::
|
|
|
|
https://ADDRESS/remote.php/caldav/calendars/USERNAME/CALENDARNAME
|
|
|
|
.. note:: The calendar name must alway be specified in URL-encoding_.
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/calendar_caldav.png
|
|
|
|
Example for a simple calendar: The default calendar is always
|
|
called "defaultcalendar", and the users' name here is "oc".
|
|
|
|
.. _URL-encoding: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding
|
|
|
|
Creating events
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
To create an event just click on the date in the month view or choose the
|
|
timeframe in the weekview. In the dialog which will appear you can enter your
|
|
information like title, category, etc.
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/calendar_createevent.png
|
|

|
|
|
|
With the advanced options you can set the
|
|
description, the location and the repetition rate of an event. If the repeating
|
|
should end you can choose between setting the end by date or by occurrences. If
|
|
you choose in the weekview all days from Monday to Friday it will automatically
|
|
set the repeat rule to "every weekday". If the interval of the weekview can be
|
|
devided by two it automatically set the repeat rule to "Bi-Weekly".
|
|
|
|
Exporting / Importing events
|
|
----------------------------
|
|
|
|
Export
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/calendar_export.png
|
|
:scale: 50
|
|
|
|
You can export either a single event or a whole calendar. If you want to export
|
|
a single event click on it and press the export button in the bottom right
|
|
corner. If you want to export a whole calendar use the "Calendar" button as
|
|
described in the chapter "Creating a calendar".
|
|
|
|
Import
|
|
~~~~~~
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/calendar_import.png
|
|
:scale: 50
|
|
|
|
Import your calendar as ical file using the files app. Just click on the
|
|
calendar file to open the import dialog. You can import the calendar into a new
|
|
calendar or into an already existing calendar.
|
|
|
|
.. note:: If the progressbar does not work properly, the folder
|
|
``apps/calendar/import_tmp/`` has probably no write permission.
|
|
|
|
Why is the calendar app asking for my current location?
|
|
-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
.. figure:: images/calendar_newtimezone1.png
|
|

|
|
|
|
The calendar needs your current position in order to detect your timezone.
|
|
Without the correct timezone there will be a time offset between the events in
|
|
ownCloud and your desktop calendar you synchronise with ownCloud. You can also
|
|
set the timezone manually in the personal settings.
