Hello, BlogClan! Today I’ll be explaining a new calendar feature.
As you can imagine, the calendar can get very full very fast, what with all of those birthdays and Clanniversaries. Some of these events are outdated, which is why the BlogTeam has decided to implement a calendar repost. 🙂
So, let’s see how this will work!
- On the 1st of every month, the birthdays and Clanniversaries for the next month will be deleted. So even though it’s only February, the title of this post is for March. After the events have been deleted, you have the rest of the month to resubmit them.
- This only applies to birthdays and Clanniversaries, not contests, other events, etc. So don’t worry about those!
- For members wanting to add their birthday or Clanniversary for the first time, you may want to wait until after the calendar is cleared, so you don’t have to submit it again. This only applies, however, if the event in question falls in the next month.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask! I’ll do my best to clear things up, but hopefully everything is explained here. 😀
When’s my Clanniversary?
May 30th, from what I can tell. 🙂 You don’t have to worry about reposting unless you have any events in March, though. 😀
So, my birthday is in November. Do I need to resubmit each month? For example: If I submit it during March, then do I need to resubmit during April?
No, not at all! 🙂 If your birthday is in November, you only need to repost in October. I’m clearing out the calendar a month ahead of time, so in October, I’ll clear out the November calendar, and you have all of October to repost for November. Make sense? 🙂
Man…
For those of us who don’t know hOW TO SUBMIT TO THE CALENDAR-
Hey, that’s okay! 🙂 I can walk you through it, or if you don’t have a WordPress account, I hear some of the mods can be bribed. Or simply asked. 😉
…are you one of the ones that can be asked? 😉
because WordPress is blocked on my iPad
and I don’t have a device I can access BlogClan on
so
if someone doesn’t add my birthday and clanniversary for me
I won’t be able to have one rip
My Clanniversary is on March 12th, I believe. I would try to submit it, but I cannot log in to my WordPress account, so you can add the event to the Calendar if you want to. Could someone add it, please? (sorry if I seem to sound rude and demanding)
maybe I’m just stupid but has this policy changed in any way? I was sure I added my birthday & Clanniversary after the first of the previous month but they’ve never been on the calendar. I could absolutely be wrong I just want to make sure I’m doing this right so I save myself the waiting for a post and it never getting put up and then getting upset over such a trivial thing 😛 it’s dumb
Actually, I’m not sure if we ever ended up implementing this 😛 It could just be that you’re setting the publish date as the same date as the event itself?
That’s a really good idea!! I’ll check but I don’t remember the specific dates when I published them 😛 good thing I have a lot of time on my hands these days!
I think this was abolished. Nobody understood the process, including me. 😛
oh ok well good to know 😛 the mystery continues then!!
