Hello, I currently have a DataType called PDCalendar, 3 Macros installed for PDCalendar, 3 XSLT files for PDCalendar, and the code below in Templates>Homepage:
This has put the calendar on the Homepage of the internal site and works as far as scrolling back and forth from month to month, but that is it. I would like to place some events on the calendar but have no clue as how to do so. I have gone through the forum discussions and read Peter's instructions but since I have no website or Umbraco experience I really need some help in the form of layman's step by step instructions. Please, is there anyone willing to help me out there? Thank you very much. Marc

Hi Marc,
I must say I have no experience with PDCalendar, but maybe this can help you further.
If you look at the page for the project under the tab resources there is a link to a demonstration of the calendar. Inside this page there is a section called documentation.
http://calendar.dijksterhuis.nu/documentation.aspx
Maybe it can help you further I hope so?
