Default Duration for calendar event

Posted By: Posted Date: September 20, 2010 Points: 0 Category :SharePoint

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a way to modify the default event duration for a user who adds items to a sharepoint calendar. I've found the examples on the internet that use jquery, but none of these appear to work for SP 2010. It changes the "end time" value, but sharepoint then changes it right back.

I'm fine modifying some values on the back end - I know that somewhere the default time is set in a file, but I have no idea where it is despite my looking. Apparently SP 2007 had a default duration of 30 minutes, but now 2010 has a default duration of 1 hour. I'd love to be able to change this.

I'm fine editing the aspx pages, but need some more guidance on what is possible with SP 2010. I tried adding a content editor webpart, but it kept saying that my code might have been changed (although it doesn't appear to have been).

Thanks for any help!

Can I change the default color of a calendar event?

I have a couple calendars that will be using the overlay functionality in 2010, and chosing colors for the overlays is no problem. However the main calendar defaults to green, and then when you open any of the overlay calendars their default color is green on their calendar but different on the main version. Is there a way I can change the default so that either the main calendar doesn't show green (then each overlay owner wouldn't be confused), or to change the seperate overlay calendars to have their default match the selected overlay color?

In a group calendar, can items be made visiable to all users by default without adding them as atten

Well the title says it all really. We have a functioning sp 2010 site, setup this weekend, that's working great so far. Primarily its being used for the company manual and procedures (a wiki site). Search is working well and so on. I added a calendar with the intention of showing key company activities, plus holiday information and who's out at meetings. We're a small company and this is unlikely to get ridiculously except on exceptional days. As it stands, when i create an item (for example someone out for a weeks holiday) unless another user adds one of the 'attendees' of the holiday event to the calendar it doesn't show up. If I add all users as attendees then they can all see it by default. However, if I show that our chairman is attending a meeting at a client, then I can't explicitly say that the chairman is an attendee because for everyone to see it, they have to be attendees as well. I nsoed around a little and thought target audiences might be the way to go. I configured all users and manager relationships, compiled the audience (it shows the right number of users). However, if I setup a meeting with the chairman as an attendee, and the whole company audience as the target audience, then people still can't see it. Back to square one. So, is there an actual answer to this? A different type of calendar, a query that

SharePoint 2007 Calendar - add an event to a recurring meeting workspace

Hello all,

I was wondering if someone can answer this problem I am having.ÃÂ

Simple Question: Are you able to add an additional event into a recurring event which is linked to a meeting workspace?

Long version:

I create an event in a calendar with the recurrence of every monday for the month. (4 dates lets say)ÃÂ We have a special meeting to add to the meeting workspace, so I add an additional event in the calendar and try to add this date (15th lets say) to that previous meeting workspace series.

My problem is that the ability to add the new date (15th) to the series doesn't show me any options to add to that previous meeting workspace, I can only create a new meeting workspace.

My colleague who has used SharePoint 2003 at another workplace is 100% sure she could do this, however I am at a loss where SharePoint 2007 allows this functionality.

In a new calendar, I tested this theory by creating 3 events with recurring dates and creating an associated meeting workspace with each of them.ÃÂ Not once did I get the option to add the event to another meeting workspace.ÃÂ I added an event with no recurrence with an associated meeting workspace, the very next event could add to that meeting workspace which is what I want except to a recurring meeting workspace.

From my analysis, any event that has a recurring series

Simplest way to get a month change event on WPF Calendar (.net 4.0)

Hi,

is there a simple way to receive some event as soon as someone turns the wpf calendar to the next or previous month?

The calendar is used as a user control part. (If this info is necessary)

At least i tried to handle this over some code via "DependencyProperty" to access the contend and the changed event of the "PART_Header...".

Unfortunately that won't solve my case.

Best regards,

Default Calendar modification, unable to delete fields

Hello. I'm new to Sharepoint Foundations 2010 (i've used Sharepoint Portal Server2007 and all the prior versions). I would like to use the default calendar as a template but cannot delete the fields I do not want to use. What are the steps to remove the fields (Something involving the Event Content Type) I do not wish to use? I've tried deleting the content type but cannot (I get the following error: The last content type on a list cannot be deleted.Troubleshoot issues with Microsoft SharePoint Foundation. Correlation ID: bcb50019-5830-42f3-bde6-9b0353b803e1 Date and Time: 10/4/2010 2:24:05 PM ). If I could create a new calendar with only the fields i need that has the current view in it that would be great. I cannot seem to get a new view to mimic the current view from the calendar webpart. any ideas could be greatly appreciated.

Calendar View: Unable filter Recurring Event by Start/End Time and Group by Recurring Event View

Hi All,
I have just found several issues with Calendar View from WSS 3.0:

Unable to filter by [Start Time] and [End Time]
I am not sure why these 2 columns doesn't appear in the Filtering column in the View Settings. The workaround found in the internet is to create calculated column for Start Time and and End Time. However, it doesn't work for Recurring Event, the calculated column will show only first recurring event Start Time.

Unable to use "Group By"
When I create new view in Calendar using format: "Standard View, with Expanding Recurring Events", there is no option to specify "Group By". Anyone knows how to show all recurring event in List view and grouped by Start Time (or any other column).

Thank you and apprecate for any idea.
