Customized event lists 

Events listing page

The main listing page for events  can be reached by adding /events to the url. Communico uses <keyword>.libnet.info as a default url for library clients.

For example, for Seasons Library who's keyword is 'seasons', their events listing page would be seasons.libnet.info/events

By default, the events listing page displays a list of all events at all locations for the current day.

Prefiltered events list options 

You can create customized, pre-filtered listings by using the following options based on this url format:
<keyword>.libnet.info/events?

a= Age
l= Location
t= Event Type
v= View (list or grid)
r= Date Range (today, tomorrow, thismonth, nextmonth, thisweek, nextweek)
term= Keyword or Search Tag
start= Start Date (2020-01-01)
end= End Date (2020-02-01)

Filter by Age group

For example if you have an age group 'Adults' and just want to display events for that age group, add the age group after a=

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?a=Adults

Filter by Location

Add the location, for example, 'Wintertown' after l=

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?l=Wintertown

Filter by Event type

Add the event type, for example, 'Games' after t=

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?t=Games

Filter by View

The default view  by 'List' but you can also view as calendar or 'Grid'.
Add the view type, after v=

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?v=grid

Filter by Date Range

The default range is 'today' but you can also view as tomorrow, thismonth, nextmonth, thisweek, nextweek.
Add the Date Range, after r=

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?r=thismonth

Note: date range option does not work for the grid view.

Combining filters

You can combine filters by adding '&' between the filters.

For example Event type 'Games' at 'Wintertown' branch next month would be:

<keyword>.libnet.info/events?t=Games&l=Wintertown&r=nextmonth

URL encoding

URLs can only be sent over the Internet using the ASCII character-set.

Since URLs often contain characters outside the ASCII set, the URL has to be converted into a valid ASCII format.

URL encoding replaces unsafe ASCII characters with a "%" followed by two hexadecimal digits.

URLs cannot contain spaces. URL encoding normally replaces a space with a plus (+) sign or with %20.

For example, Story Time would be encoded as Story%20Time.

After creating your text string, use an online encoder to ensure it is valid.
