Thank you for promoting business school events via this campus-wide calendar. The Daniels School’s website is coded such that university calendar events automatically feed onto many website pages.
Below are step-by-step instructions. Before you begin, please note these important points:
All events have a thumbnail/banner image. You can either upload your own photo, choose from the library of existing photos on Localist, or leave the space blank and a pre-determined, generic image will be applied to the entry by the system (not ideal).
If uploading your own image, please make sure the images are landscape, PNG, JPG, or GIF. They need to be 72 dpi, and no larger than 1920px wide. Anything larger will delay the image loading for viewers. Recommended size is 1080px (pixels) wide.
Avoid having text on the image if possible. Many images will have titles and other text superimposed over the image on the calendar. It is recommended that any text in the image be placed at the center with ample padding to prevent it from being cut off or obscured by calendar text in the top left.
The filters you want to make sure you use are for the Event Type, Audience, and most importantly, Department. The Group and the Topic filters may not apply to a school event. Leave those blank if the choices do not apply.
You can select multiple departments for a given event, but it is imperative that “Business” be selected for any school event. Without this, the Daniels School’s calendar administrators will not be able to find your event to approve it.
If tickets are required, add a link to the “Ticket Link” field, as indicated on the form. If a ticket link is added, but there is no cost, the button on the event page will say “register.” If you require a ticket for your event, the button on the event page will say “buy tickets.”
Click the “Submit Event” button. Once submitted, the event will be held in a queue for review and publishing by a school calendar administrator. If they have questions, you will be contacted via email.
Thank you for promoting Daniels School of Business events!
