Appointment Calendar for Joomla

Appointment Calendar for Joomla!^® , is a website calendar that can be used in Joomla CMS. Appointment Calendar gives you the possibility to create and edit appointments, like in a work organizer where daily tasks are scheduled. Timeframes and intervals can be managed for each day. This calendar allows you to add information to each appointment. It also has the capability to leave a specific time or specific intervals free so that you can add a new task or appointment later on.

This calendar is available both as a module, component and as a plugin for Joomla. You will be able to show the calendar content in full format on any of your website's pages. You can also show the calendar as a module on any assigned location within your website or as a plugin into an article/content.

Features

This calendar comes with several handy features: periodic list creation (i.e., events that repeat every 20 minutes or every hour), schedule changes, etc. You can define which days are available for appointment scheduling (Monday to Friday, etc), also which dates are non-working days (vacations, holidays, planned breaks, etc). For each activity or scheduled appointment you will be able to assign a title and add the information related to the task. You can also choose between a monthly calendar view and multiple months in a simultaneous view.

This product can be recommended for: Scheduling of meetings and appointments for a company; setting up work schedules, follow up on different activities during a specific event, academic calendar (for example: Class schedules), and others.

• Special Note 1: If you would like to add HTML formatting to appointments, such as color, backgrounds, etc. you can do so using the HTML editor integrated into the Calendar.
  
  
• Special Note 2: We have a similar product called "Daily Scheduler Calendar" that allows you to select time intervals for appointments, among other additional features and configuration options.

The extension has a very simple management interface, with a modern and interactive technology (demo available below).

You can display the calendar to your website visitors in different ways, depending on the intended use:

• As module. Show different days/hours activities using the minimum space available. A small calendar is added in such a way that it allows you to show the information related to a selected date by using Tooltips, which doesn't interfere with the rest of the webpage elements.

• As component. To show the activities in different hours, using the main webpage contents. It inserts a big calendar that can be used as the main content in the webpage to show, cell by cell, the titles of the activities scheduled for each interval. When moving the mouse over the desired hour a Tooltip menu will be displayed with the activity information. Click the link below for an example:
