Purpose

The Important Dates component pulls from a pre-existing Ingeniux folder containing dates and event pages, or it can use an RSS feed.

Make sure you are in the editing mode, and then click on the Important Dates component on your page.

Write in your desired heading in the “Heading” field. “Important Dates” is standard, but not a required title.
Choose a source.
1. Feed—Use the pasted in RSS feed.
2. Navigation—Use the xID to a folder that holds event pages, or the xID of a single event page.

Unless you need to edit the source fields, skip down to the orientation field.
Select a visual orientation for the Important Dates component, either vertical or horizontal.

Select the number of lines, or events, that you wish for the Important Dates component to hold.

If you’re editing the component in the “Design” option, select the “Apply Changes” button. If you’re editing the component in the “Edit” option, changes will happen automatically.
Save your work.

You can only choose to have one source selected at a time, but you can keep the sources fields filled out and saved to specific preferences.

Select the type of page you wish to pull from. Typically the selection “Children” is used.
Insert the xID for the starting page. Usually, this will contain the xID of the folder used to contain all of the Children event pages.
Max Nodes is usually left alone—but the number you specify here will control how many items the Important Dates component will return. Specifying a number can be useful when there are dozens, and hundreds, of events kept in an event folder.
Max depth is also usually left alone—but the number you specify here will control how far the component will pull dates. Specifying a number can be useful when there are dozens, and hundreds, of events kept in an event folder.
