It only shows up on threads you have started yourself.HELP! OK would some one please tell me what I am doing wrong, or not doing correctly. No matter where I look, click on, hover over I can not bring up the "Thread Tools" link. The advise/instructions that it is " to the right of " your initial post" brings no success. So would some one send me a screen shot of what I am supposed to looking at/for. Thanks in advance.
Alright - but that little fact seems to have been omitted from the instructions. So if I want something posted on the Camino Calendar I have start a "new post"- seems like re-inventing the wheel when "tagging" would be a lot simpler/easier (at least from my point of view). CheersIt only shows up on threads you have started yourself.
I agree.. the instructions was a bit confusing... I updated it now.Alright - but that little fact seems to have been omitted from the instructions.

@Stephen Nicholls Just one tip, I would remove your email address from your signature, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address_harvesting
Buen Camino! SY
....er .... do you mean in my profile? But if I remove it, surely I can't log in, and Ivar won't be able to send me notifications etc?@Stephen Nicholls Just one tip, I would remove your email address from your signature, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address_harvesting Buen Camino! SY
Dear all,
Adding your date to this calendar is a two step process:
This will create a link in the Calendar (on your date) to the Thread you created about your camino plans.
- Start a new thread (maybe in the Camino Introduction section?) announcing your Camino with as much/little information that you feel comfortable with.
- Once the thread has been posted, click the "Threads Tools" drop down, just over (to the right) of your initial posts and select "Calendar Add".
View attachment 15493- You then enter the start date of your Camino and press "Submit" to add it to the Calendar.
If people thinks this is an easier way comparted to the old calendar, I will disconitnue the old calendar in a few weeks. If this happens, dates entered in the old calendar will be lost (there are not many).
Please let me know what you think.
Happy holidays and a happy new year!!
Ivar

Thank you for the instructions!Worked great , thanks Ivar .
This was actually a bit more difficult than I thought... instructions are here:@ivar Can you put the short version of the instructions also on top of the calendar board? Pretty please and many thanks! SY
This is much more difficult been trying for ages and just saw your thread And now I try to start one and it says new topic, is that the same? Also, maybe consider different calendar for Portuguese?Dear all,

Job done!@Stephen Nicholls Just one tip, I would remove your email address from your signature, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address_harvesting Buen Camino! SY
May 2018 is completely blank.
I totally agree. I find the Calendar very confusing now, because it's hard to know when someone is actually starting the Camino. Not to mention odd things like "injured toe". I think that the end date field should be removed.There are some entries for May now - not sure if yours is there or not.

The calendar is a great idea and it's easy to add something to it but a small issue I have is that when someone enters a start date and an end date, the link to their post appears every day in between. I think this will clog up the calendar a lot and doesn't really help people find other pilgrims starting around the same time and from the same place as them.
Where do I find the calendar?Just to say that Ivar has changed the instructions when you add your dates. When you see the “end date” option, you will be told not to enter your end date (older instructions just said it was optional). And the mods now have the ability to edit calendar dates, so that if someone inadvertently puts in their end date and we get that string, we can remove it and just put in the start date.
Hope that more people will now be using the calendar, knowing that only start dates are showing!
The calendar is here:Where do I find the calendar?
Where do I find the calendar?
I was just looking at the calendar to see if anyone is starting at the same time I am, and I noticed that a post that I made was on the calendar. I hadn't added it to the calendar myself. How did it get there?
Thanks, I thought that might have been the case.
Anytime I see a public announcement of a date of departure at the start of a thread, I assume the OP would not mind if the announcement also was posted on the calendar. If that is wrong, and if people object, I will stop doing that. But my sense has been that the calendar is not used because people don't know how to use it, or because they don't know about it, and not because they affirmatively don't want their thread to be linked to the calendar.
If it was easier to post on the calendar, more people would use it, I guess.

Yes, I know.. I need to figure out how to do that... the calendar is a separate plugin and not part of the stock forum software. Will look into this.Hi Ivar,
It might be helpful to include a link to instructions on the top of the calendar page itself.
Thanks,
Dave
Hi Mette, Another mod has added you, or else you have figured it out it seems!!I can’t figure it out
Yes I fightede it out, don’t remember howHi Mette, Another mod has added you, or else you have figured it out it seems!!
I followed the instructions, started a thread, but can't find the calendar.

Great! The wording might have changed in one of the updates to the plug-in . Happy planning!Worked!
However, for me, the three dots lead to a drop down menu that says "Calendar Menu," like this:View attachment 101194
You can find "Calendar" in the Menu at the top. On my phone it is under the icon of 3 lines. On my computer it is a band across the top, but you might need to click to the right.Just entered my date but how can I see the actual calendar and other pilgrims dates ?
Yes, I know it is not the easiest.. but it is the only thing I have right now.At the risk of being obtuse about this, is this still the process for putting my Camino dates on the calendar?
The Calendar is no more.I’m sorry and don’t want to be critical but I can’t work this out. I posted and now can’t find my post. I can’t find the way to add afterwards either.
