[edit] Synchronizing Multiple Calendars With Devices That Have One Calendar

The Problem My phone has one calendar but I want to sync my work, home and wife's calendars - and I want any event added/updated/removed on my phone to sync to the correct calendar on ScheduleWorld.

Solution: ScheduleWorld will always do the right thing for updates and deletes.

There is only one question: If you create an event on your phone, which calendar does ScheduleWorld save it in after a sync?

Answer: You have two options:

  1. Configure ScheduleWorld to put received new items into a calendar with a matching category. If no matching category is found it will fall back to the next option.
  2. Configure ScheduleWorld to put received new items into a specific calendar.

[edit] Matching Category

  • These instructions assume you have clicked the button New Calendar on the day view and have the calendars 'Work' and 'Home'. Use any names you like, of course.
  • Configure your device to use the Matching Category method by going to the HTML preferences page and clicking 'Edit Settings' for your phone.
  • Select the Calendars tab.
  • Enable the option Send new events to the first calendar matching the event category.
  • Enable the calendars you want to sync to your phone (For example, Work and Home).
  • Click 'Save'.
  • Assign a category (or comma separated categories) to each calendar.
For example, on the HTML preferences page assign the category 'Work' to the calendar 'Work' and something similar for the 'Home' calendar. Image:Work.png
  • 'Save' must be clicked to save your category change.
  • On your phone, create a calendar event with the category 'Work' and sync. No matter how many ScheduleWorld calendars you have this new event will be saved in the 'Work' calendar.

[edit] Specific Calendar

  • Configure your device to use the Matching Category method by going to the HTML preferences page and clicking 'Edit Settings' for your phone.
  • Select the Calendars tab.
  • Disable the option Send new events to the first calendar matching the event category and below that select which calendar you want to receive new items.
  • All events you create on your phone will wind up in the calendar you selected.
