A way to link to an event?

Scheduler ASP.NET MVC
#1

We have an email notification system -

We have users subscribe to a particular event user, when that user posts a new event - all of the users who subscribe to him receive an email notification that he has posted a new event.

Is there a way to email a link to go directly to the day or directly to the even in the scheduler?

Hi,
there are two possible approaches

  1. You can do it using a client side extension:

var scheduler = new DHXScheduler(this); scheduler.Extensions.Add(SchedulerExtensions.Extension.Url);

And then generate links like following: “/calendar/index#event=eventId”
Please check the demo: s3.amazonaws.com/uploads.hipcha … ension.zip

  1. or you can do it on server. If you add an id of target event to url query string - “/calendar/index?eventId=eventId”

Then during initialization of a scheduler you could get that event from the db and use it start date as InitialDate of scheduler, i.e.

[code]public ActionResult Index(string eventId)
{

var scheduler = new DHXScheduler(this);

var initialDate = DateTime.Today;
if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(eventId))
{
    var activeEvent = ...get event from db;
    initialDate = activeEvent.start_date;
}
scheduler.InitialDate = initialDate;[/code]
