How to Create a Custom Public Calendar Link

In Mazévo, you can create one or more custom calendar links that can be integrated into your public website. The custom calendars can have filtering and viewing options preset for the end-user.

Overview

Mazévo includes a built-in public calendar that can be displayed on a public website. All confirmed events in Mazévo are displayed, except those marked as private. You can find the default calendar link under Account Settings.  

In addition to the default public calendar, you can create additional prefiltered calendars (links).  Each public calendar can be filtered by location, status, and event type. In addition to filtering, you define which views are available to the end-user (Daily list, Weekly list, Monthly list, and Monthly calendar).

Defining a new public calendar link

  1. Navigate to Settings > Calendars.
  2. Press Add Calendar.
  3. Enter a Name for the filter. The name will be displayed to the end user.
  4. Select one or more Event Types from the dropdown box to filter the results by Event Type.
  5. Select one or more Statuses from the dropdown box to filter the results by Status.  If you don't specify any statuses, the calendar will only display bookings in statuses marked to Display on Public Calendar.
  6. Select one or more organizations from the dropdown box to filter the results by Organizations.
  7. Select one or more organization types from the dropdown box to filter the results by Organization Types.
  8. Select the Views that will be available on the calendar. The options are
    1. Day
    2. Week
    3. Month
    4. Calendar
  9. If you want to hide Special Dates from showing on the calendar, check Hide Special Dates.
  10. If you want to remove the logo and tenant name from the top of the page, check the Hide Header option.
  11. Enter a value for the Number of days to display in the future to limit how far into the future events can be displayed.  For example, setting the value to 60 will only show the next 60 days of events.  Set the value to 0 to remove the limitation.
  12. Enter a value for the Number of days to include in the iCal feed. This is used to limit the data returned in the 'feed' data.  
  13. On the Location tab, select the Buildings or Room Tags to be included on the calendar.
  14. Press Save.

After saving a new calendar, its link appears in the grid.  Clicking the link displays a pop-up box with the full link and a convenient copy button. A URL link to the iCal feed is also displayed.

iCal Feed Updates

When you add the iCal URL to your Google or Outlook calendar, the update frequency is controlled by Google or Outlook. The data is 'pulled' into the calendar, not 'pushed' in by Mazevo.  The timing of the data refresh is at the discretion of your calendar application.  Google refreshes approximately every 12 to 24 hours, while Outlook refreshes approximately every 3 hours.
