Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library Webdeveloper

I think this is a small bug I’m planning on fixing soon. Can you try the times without the leading 0? Just 1:00 pm and 3:00pm. The new error checking doesn’t like that zero and I have to fix it so it thinks that those times are valid. Can you let me know if that helps?

If you go to the search page and build a search, it will give you a URL that you can use made from your choices. You can also add a title= to get a specific title only. (I’m making a slight change to that so it’s verbatim and not a wildcard).

So, for only Children’s category events for the next month at only Noble Neighborhood, I would set up the search and hit submit. I then also his Name sort in this example. This gives me the following link in the URL bar:

http://events.heightslibrary.org/eventcalendar/?searchTerms=&branchID=3&startDate=08%2F18%2F2016&endDate=09%2F17%2F2016&ageGroup%5B%5D=2&action=searchReturn&button=Submit&sortOrder=name

You can see the variables:
searchTerms=
(Blank, none used)

branchID=3
(Noble)

startDate=08%2F18%2F2016
endDate=09%2F17%2F2016
(Dates with the / made HTML safe by the browser, automatically)

ageGroup[]=2
(This is Children. You can have more than one ageGroup or Category listed)

sortOrder=name
(How to sort)

action=searchReturn
(This is important and tells the app what to do)

Please let me know if this is still giving you issues.

Unfortunately, there isn’t any import feature that works with any paid systems. I’m not sure if any paid products even offer an export, and it would have to be in an open format that could be converted to something Book a Room could read.

Even with 4 branches and multiple room configurations, our library was able to switch over by hand pretty quickly and the time we save now is well worth it!

The Event Calendar shows staff scheduled events. These would be events you schedule in the admin area under Create Events.

The Meeting Rooms are where the public reserves meeting rooms. You can view the meeting room list from the admin area. You can see a daily list, and even print room signs.

There is a difference between an event, which the public does NOT schedule but can attend, and meeting room requests, which are personal, public uses of a room.

I’m not sure I understand the question. Have you installed the Event Calendar plugin? https://wordpress.org/plugins/book-a-room-event-calendar/

New version going up. Please try it and see it that works. Thanks!
