You now have more options in how you manage events on your website. You can use the built-in calendar element tools to create events, or you could choose to use an external calendar software (like Google Calendar, .Mac, Zvents, 30 boxes ... etc.) to manage your events and then have your calendar display those events on your website. You could also subscribe to any public iCalendars and bring those events onto your website instantly.

Example Use:

If you would like more advanced recurring events on your website, this is the option to go with. Many people might be using Google calendars or other iCal based calendars already so this makes the transition very easy and convenient.

How to:

1. Login to your website.
   
2. Go the the page where your calendar is.
3. Click on Settings from the calendar element dropdown list.
   
4. Click on the ADVANCED tab.
5. You'll see a section for "Calendar Subscription" and a field to enter your external iCal feed URL (your external software like Google Calendar will provide you with the iCal URL)
6. Paste your iCal feed URL into that field.
7. Click the Update button.
   

One other nice feature is that once you've subscribed, you can override the title and description of the events by editing them within your calendar. Just edit an event like normal and you can add web-only content to an event for display purposes. The event still stays connected to your iCal source. Keep in mind that if you ever unsubscribe from the iCal source, all events related to the iCal source, even content added through your website, will be deleted.
