Event Calendar / Scheduler
An easy to implement event calendar plugin built on top of dhtmlxScheduler, which provides Ajax-based scheduling solution similar to Microsoft Outlook Calendar, Apple’s iCal or Google Calendar. The plugin allows you to manage single or multiple user events through easy and intuitive dynamic interface. Users can add/modify/delete events on the fly and easily change events dates and time by simply dragging the event boxes. You can set up different levels of permissions to people who will use the calendar.

The scheduler can be configured to display events in Day, Week, or Month view, as well as in any custom view. If there is a need to display recurring events, users can create events which will be repeated on daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis.

You can use the scheduler as an ordinary calendar on a web page to visualize some events/appointments, or as a calendar to display your blog posts archive (in this case it works in read-only mode).

The main features include:

• Day/Week/Month view + ability to create custom view
• Drag-n-drop support to configure event date and time
• Customizable appearance
• Single/multi-days events (daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis)
• Customizable time scale
