Create a Link to the Current Calendar Month

These steps will help you create a link in your Navigation website menu that will go to whatever the current calendar month is and display the full calendar grid. Please note that you will not need to update the link from month to month; it is fully automated and will take the visitor directly to the calendar grid for whatever month is current. After logging into your system as an administrator, please do the following steps:

  1. Click Website > Navigation.
  2. If your Calendar link will be at the top level, click the blue +New Navigation Item button, OR if your Calendar link will be in a drop list under one of your existing pages, click the small black arrow next to that page's title and in the drop-list area, click the white +New Navigation Item button.  |
