UND’s new calendar preparing for launch

The new calendar will officially launch Monday, Dec. 18, but we are asking current calendar users to start entering events for 2018 and beyond to begin populating content.

Current calendar embeds in OmniUpdate will be replaced with new embeds on Dec. 18. We are still formatting the design to fit the spaces allotted and are working directly with site owners to get this task accomplished.

It is important to categorize your events properly and similarly each time you add ‘like’ events. This not only makes your events easier to find, but widgets are also populated according to filter, therefore you must categorize your events the same way to ensure your widget catches the events it’s designed to.

To submit a UND event, go to calendar.UND.edu and click the green “Submit an Event” button in the upper right corner. Use your NDUS account (NDUS.Identifier) to log in to submit events. Events must have broad relevance to members of the UND community and all events will be reviewed before they are visible.

Additional details about the new calendar launch can be found on the Website Redevelopment Blog. For more information about calendar usage and best practices, please review the Calendar Guidelines.

All other questions should be directed to Layne Pfliiger, UND Social Media Manager, at layne.m.pfliiger@UND.edu.
