The Edlio CMS calendar system organizes school events into distinct, manageable calendars that aggregate seamlessly on your public website and sync to parent personal devices.
Calendar types in the Edlio CMS
School Calendars: Sitewide calendars created by administrators (such as Athletics, Academic Dates, Board Meetings, and Campus Events) that appear on the public calendar and in homepage Event blocks.
Personal Calendars: Individual calendars attached to faculty profile pages, allowing teachers to post assignment due dates, quiz schedules, and classroom reminders.
Section Calendars: Department-specific or activity-specific calendars attached to page sections, grouping events for specific clubs, grade levels, or committees.
Public calendar display and family subscriptions
On your public website (/apps/events/), visitors can view events in monthly grid, agenda list, or year overview views. Families can filter by specific calendar categories and click Subscribe to link live iCal/Webcal feeds directly to Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, or Microsoft Outlook.
đĄ Best-Practice Adoption Tip: Set up distinct calendar categories for high-volume schedules (e.g. Varsity Athletics, Fine Arts, District Holidays). Color-coded tags help families instantly distinguish campus events without cluttering general academic dates.
