“Other” Calendar Features
We have some other Calendar features you might want to know about! If you would like to see a general tour of our Calendar, you can watch a screencast here. To edit or delete an event, hover your mouse over the desired event. If you want to edit the event, click on the pencil icon. If you would like to delete the event, click on the trash can icon.
To add an Anniversary for someone not on Spokt, simply click on the Anniversary tab, and when you are prompted to select a user, go to the bottom of the list, and click “other.” You will then be able to manually type in the name(s) you need.
To add a Birthday for someone not on Spokt, you follow the same instructions for adding an Anniversary, but click on the Birthday tab instead!
Thank you for the calendar and especially feature to add events and add “other” names for birthdays and anniversaries! Love it!!!
Hi, Eve! We’re very glad that you are enjoying these features. Have a great day!
cool
Glad the calendar is not active .. is there any automation for those of us that were mayflowered over with all our contacts, taking their birthdays from their profiles? or do we have to key them all in?
Hi, William! Contact us, and we will be happy to take a look.
glad the calendar is NOW active … my typo error .. sorry
Can you add an event while viewing the calendar or do you always have to keep going back to home to access “add event”?
Hi Julie! If you are viewing the calendar, you can add an event from there by hovering over the date you would like to add an event to, and clicking “add event”.
Is there a feature we can select to notify us of an event about to come up in the Calendar? Often, forget to click on colored day (indicating an event, birthday, etc.). Email notifications would be extremely helpful and keep everyone more apprised of what is going on in the family and/or send out best wishes, happy birthdays, etc.
Hi, Kim! Thanks for the suggestion 🙂 I have sent your request over to our Developers.
Dear SPOKT,
I like to record the anniversaries of the death of family members. Is there any way to do that other than filling in details under “Other”?
Dear SPOKT,
Do you have an issue with the Calendar in that the entries are not appearing in the days (date) chosen for the birthdays etc. They appear usually in the previous day to the date chosen. Is it just me or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks
Hi Eamon,
I’ll contact support on your behalf about this.
