Details
- Introduction to Calendar Visibility Issues: Common user inquiries regarding why certain items might not be visible on their calendar, explaining that these issues are frequently caused by active filter settings.
- Understanding "Sticky" Calendar Filters: Filters are designed to help users narrow down what they want to see on their calendar, but these settings are "sticky," meaning they will remain in their last configured state until they are manually changed. The primary filters—events, contests, and content—are tied to the specific types of PRFs present on the calendar.
- Visual Indicators and Filter Toggling: Contests are marked with an orange "C" and events are marked with a blue "E". When these filters are toggled off, the associated items are removed from the calendar, and the user must remember to turn them back on to restore their visibility.
- Advanced Filter Configuration: Utilize the blue funnel filter icon to access additional settings. To ensure the calendar shows the correct information, users should verify that all necessary stations are selected and that the "awaiting approval" status is checked if they are attempting to locate PRFs that have not yet been approved.
