Now that you are done creating events and sessions, you have the option to publish your timetable in HTML format. This is very useful if you want other staff members to view all, or a some part of the events, depending on what you want them to see. Publishing in HTML is one way of making the events or sessions you’ve created to be visible to others without having them logged into RAPLAsessions or events, without the need of getting them logged into Rapla. This knowledge article will guide you on how to publish an HTML Calendar View of the sessions or events depending on who and what you want them to seein Rapla.
NOTE
The HTML output, view, or display will depend on your current Main Calendar View. It is very important that you are already familiar with all the factors that will affect your main view before you use the Publish menu in
Rapla. You can revisit the
Rapla User Interfacepage if you have questions with the instructions of the Workflow below.
Once you publish or share the HTML link, it presents a live calendar view of Rapla such that when an admin or other users change or edit the sessions of that timetable, the users who view from the HTML link your provided will get an updated (spontaneous) view of the changes made.
