==New year==


Update the school calendar—"Sagamore Hills Elementary School"—to include only the upcoming school year's events. Move old events to the "Historic" calendar for future reference. You don't want to delete the prior year calendar and start new because everyone would then need to update their calendars with new calendar locations (URLs).
Here's an example appropriate for the sidebar of the [[Sagamore Hills PTA website]] circa August, 2013.


It can be done a number of not-so-staight-forward ways. Here's one.

New year[edit]

Update the school calendar—"Sagamore Hills Elementary School"—to include only the upcoming school year's events. Move old events to the "Historic" calendar for future reference. You don't want to delete the prior year calendar and start new because everyone would then need to update their calendars with new calendar locations (URLs).

It can be done a number of not-so-staight-forward ways. Here's one.

  1. Export last years' calendars' ics files (Google Calendar on the web, calendar, Calendar settings, ics link) and upload to PTA Google Drive (for backup)
  2. Import last years' calendars' ics files into the "Historic" calendar (Google Calendar on the web, Other calendars, Import calendar) and update copy (revision) (of "Historic" Calendar) on PTA Google Drive (for bakcup)
  3. Connect to the school calendars that need bulk old event deleting, like "Sagamore Hills Elementary School", with a calendaring program that lets you connect read/write to a Google Calendar and do bulk deleting of old events (I've used Thunderbird or Evolution)
