Calendar Events

All users can see the events in which they are listed as participants.
Administrators can see ALL events.

The graphical interface of the calendar gives us some information about the events, and even more information is displayed when looking at the calendar in 'list view'.

The event page

Clicking on any event opens the event page, where all users can find the following interactive elements:

• the event owner;
• details about the event type, including links to any course content where applicable;
• the list of people invited to register (for self-registration events only)
• the list of participants;
• the person(s) in charge;
• the list of rooms and equipment booked for the event;
• a link to the assignment page (if the event is an assignment reminder);
• the optional notes saved with the event, which may contain links or embedded media.

All the user names can be clicked to reveal their profile photos. User groups can be clicked to reveal the list of the group members (and within the list, each name can be clicked to reveal their user profile photo).

Below each room booked with the event users can also find a link to open a map with directions to the building, if available.

For self-registration events, students will also see a 'register' or 'cancel registration' button. Note that tutors do not see this button, because they do not need it.

The 'person-in-charge' for any event can also see a button to 'message participants' and 'message invitees' (for self-registration events) which acts as a shortcut to create a new message with all the recipients pre-filled in the form.

For events which requires attendance, any user who is marked as a 'person-in-charge' will see a button to open the 'attendance register'.

Finally - only visible to administrators and the event owner - at the bottom of the page we can also see the buttons to copy, delete, and edit the current event.
