+Version: 0.85
+
+Requires: Elgg 1.8 or higher
+
+Should be installed in mod/event_calendar
+
+*Description*
+
+The event_calendar plugin adds a site-wide event calendar as well as
+an event calendar to each group. Various options related to the site and group
+calendars can be set using the event calendar settings on the tool
+administration page.
+
+Group members can view events by month, week and day using a jQuery date 
+picker widget, and submit event descriptions including the venue, start date,
+end date, tags, description, organiser, contact person, event access level, 
+and fees if any.
+
+Group events are aggregated into the site wide event calendar accessible from
+the Tools menu drop down.
+
+Site admins (or optionally any user) can also add non-group-specific events to 
+the site-wide calendar.
+
+Users can add group or site-wide events to a personal calendar to showcase
+events that they plan to attend or are interested in. They can optionally 
+display these events by dragging an Event calendar widget onto their profile
+or dashboard.
+
+The number of users who have added an event to their personal gallery is listed
+on each event page along with a link to a page that displays these users in a 
+gallery format. It is thus easy to find other people interested in the same
+event.
+
+*Admin settings*
+
+Numerous options for the event calendar can be set in the event_calendar settings 
+area under Tool Administration.
+
+These include:
+
+Add starting and ending times as well as dates to events (default: no)
+
+Automatically add events a user creates to his/her personal calendar (default: yes)
+
+Automatically add group events for all members to their personal calendars (default: no)
+
+(If activated, the autogroup function automatically adds all group events to a 
+user's calendar for all groups that the user is a member of. Group events are 
+also automatically removed if the user leaves the group.)
+
+Use Agenda view (default: no)
+
+Useful for conferences with multiple events on the same day.
+
+Display venue in event listings (default: no)
+
+Add region dropdown (default: no), plus a way to specify the allowable regions
+
+First date displayable on show events pages (default: no first date)
+
+Last date displayable on show events pages (default: no last date)
+
+As well, there are numerous options for configuring the site wide and group calendars.
+
+*Acknowledgment*
+
+The initial development of the event calendar plugin was funded by the Research
+& Development department at the Royal Institute of British Architects
+(RIBA). Several other clients have funded enhancements.
