mojoPortalAdvanced Web Sites Made Easy

Event Calendar Pro provides a feature rich solution for publishing event calendars. Once installed in your mojoPortal site, you can add instances of Event Calendar Pro to as many pages in your site as you like, so you can have multiple Calendars with different events. For example, if your organization has monthly member meetings you can list them in one Event Calendar, but if you have sub committees or special interest groups that have their own events not available to the general membership, you could create other pages with Event Calendars for these committees or groups. A nightclub or a band could use this feature to list their concerts and even sell tickets to concerts. For a guided tour of Event Calendar Pro, please see this demo/training video. You can also try it out yourself on our demo site demo.mojoportal.com. Available licenses:  Single Installation License, Server License or Enterprise License.

After purchasing Event Calendar Pro, download the .zip file to your local machine and using an FTP Client like FileZilla, copy the contents of the wwwroot folder into the root folder of your mojoPortal web site. Then visit http://yoursiteroot/Setup/Default.aspx to complete the installation of Event Calendar Pro.

http://developer.novell.com/wiki/index.php/Mojoportal
This is released free under the GPL in order to comply with the GPL license of the MySql Connector for .NET
Source Code for the MySql Data Layer for Event Calendar Pro is avilable from our Subversion Repository at this url:
