I'm sure I'm obtuse, but I can't see anything obvious, buttons etc. to add content to the Calendar... do I send you a note, Damon?

TIA, tami

I've seen it before, but i can't remember where it was, so i looked through a few event threads and came across Damon giving some a direct link to it.

There is an Add link at the top right of each calendar listing page. The easiest way is to go to the main calendar page.
http://www.thebeachcats.com/event/

Then navigate to the day you want your event to start.

Then Click on the Add link and the start date will already be correct.

Damon, I've looked again, and I don't see anything that says 'add.' It may be a Mac vs PC thing? Want me to take a screen shot and email it to you?

Should be a list of links like this, when you are logged in, on everything except the individual detail view.

Day - Week - Month - Year - List - Add - Search - Print

Yes, if you aren't seeing that please send a screenshot.

Ok, looks like I'm the only one who can see the link I'm talking about.

Like a server error message would say "something went wrong".

So I've added a link in the top navigation under Calendar for "Add New Event". Of course that link only works if you are logged in, but at least it's easier to find.
