    How to create a calendar topic Creating a calendar

    To embed a simple calendar, add the following to the first post of a topic (note the separate lines):

    [calendar]
    [/calendar]
    

    You can also include additional calendar options by adding these variables:

    Option Example Values
    Hide weekends weekends="false"
    Hide specific days hiddenDays="1,2" 0-6 for Sunday-Saturday, respectively
    Set the default view defaultView="basicWeek" month, basicWeek, listNextYear
    Ignore timezones fullDay="true"

    For example:

    [calendar weekends="false" hiddenDays="1,2" defaultView="basicWeek" fullDay="true"]
    [/calendar]
    

    And, et voila, that should be that. :slight_smile:

    You can view an example here, which also goes into a little more detail about how to add items to one - Category Calendar demo topic

    Poll: What's your preferred mobile OS? Wow, no love for Firefox OS. To be honest, I’m not that surprised. It does seem compelling, but I haven’t tried yet. Straight-up embracing the idea of writing apps in HTML/JS/CSS is a good move, but they’re a bit ahead of their time. The only way to make something like that work on iOS/Android is with Cordova, and that experience is terrible. I’m not even sure Cut the Rope runs on it, and that runs on everything.

    What is your favorite TED Video Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, but I unsubscribed from my TED Talks feed today. I just wasn’t watching them any longer. And I truly feel like I’ve lost nothing. In fact, I’ve gained some precious time back.

    As is always the case, I was able to find some people on the interwebs who agreed with me:

    When did TED lose its edge? When did TED stop trying to collect smart people and instead collect people trying to be smart?

    http://www.ashleymilnetyte.com/ashleymilne-tyte/2013/05/why-im-bored-of-ted-talks.html

    The problem is, TED talks are everywhere. They’ve become so common they’re no longer special in any way. Their impact has been massively diluted due to the sheer number of ideas discussed - there just aren’t that many ‘ideas worth spreading’.

    I feel like for every new 15 minute TED video, there are two 7 1/2 minute-read articles that are both more engrossing and insightful.

    Do you use a mobile device for ALL your work? Tell me how! I have yet to get a tablet.

    I use a Nexus 5 these days for email, hipchat, Trello, reviewing code on bitbucket and github, and staying on top of support issues and other discussions on our forum (we use discourse, of course).

    But day to day I use a dual boot Macbook Pro Retina with Windows 7 on the “other half”. For point and click stuff, half the time I use the touchpad, the other half I plug in a mouse.

    Hard to imagine living full time with no real keyboard, though this reply is coming via Nexus 5 right now.

    What's the coolest thing you have worked on? I can’t say that I’ve done much with wood working, but I’ve done quite a bit in gardening. So probably building my modular garden is the coolest thing I’ve worked on.

    From a technical standpoint, analyzing statistics. Number crunching is a lot of fun, and it is very interesting to see some of the connections you can build based on geographic location, to weather, to income, population, etc.

    What is a onebox? The name “onebox” comes from Google:

    On top of the organic results (and sometimes at the bottom), Google shows OneBox results for queries that can be answered instantly or when a direct link can be offered.

    There are several kinds of OneBox results:

    1. Music search. Enter the name of an artist or band, and you’ll get information, albums and reviews.
