Posting Events on the GSC Calendar

[Chris Kluesener]

Hi All - this is a how-to guide for posting to the GSC calendar (and the club calendars too). Vin, Pat, and Rach we'll want to talk more about this process, let me know what questions you have. 

If anyone in the Group doesn't care about posting events this year, disregard this note. 

You should all have access, so please follow the below directions to test it out. 

Here's the calendar: http://smgworld.bu.edu/smgmba/clubs-events/

Note: It takes 20 minutes to show up once you post, so be patient. 

Note 2: this seems to be the calendar they're using for first year pre-term (so only post public info)

How to post:

1. Go to smgworld.bu.edu

2. Look at top navigation, far right side - click LOGIN, then click "More SMG Applications"

3. Click Guest

4. Enter your kerberos username and password (don't include @bu.edu)

5. Upon successful login, click SMG Calendar in the middle

6. Click Submit event on the left side

7. Enter the event and details 

- if you're a GSC member - use "GS Council | SMG GS Council:: GPO Event" as your calendar selection 

-if you're posting for a club, cohort cup, or anything else really - choose your specific calendar

** IMPORTANT - if you want to post to only the corresponding club calendar and NOT the entire school, you must check the box that says "Post this event only to club calendar ". 

8. finally, click submit, and then go to "submitted events" on the left to confirm the event went through

9. Wait 20 minutes, then click on the link at the top of this page to see if your test event appears on the google calendar

10. Once you see it successfully appear, save this email and delete the test event you just made. 

**This calendar shows up all over BU so it must stay clean and relevant. 

This is a long and confusing email - message me back off the google group for a personal consultation.

Best,

Chris

Hey all, can anyone help me with calendar posting?  

I tried following the instructions Chris sent out way back but I don't have any "Submit event" link when I log in to smgworld.  Has the process changed since Aug.?

Thanks,

Ji
