Public Calendars not included in "Whats happening near you?'
When I create a new event and click it off as Public there is also a check box to include it in the "What's happening near you?" zipcode search.

It won't let me click it and says that I don't have enough information in the title or the description. I've got that information on all my events but it won't let me make it available. What gives?

I'm using Safari Version 2.0.4 (419.3) on Mac OS X 10.4.8.

Can you post the sample event title and description?
I believe the pop-up tells you the minimum # of words necessary in the title/description for an event to be "published"

Okay, here's a sample of a current event. The Title is:

Hands On Atlanta Service Days

Then the Description is:

Trail maintenance work sessions in partnership with Hands On Atlanta Volunteers provide much of the labor to keep our park safe and lovely.

Join Hands On Atlanta volunteers the third Saturday of every month, from 9 – 11 am, to groom and mulch trails, install plants, pull weeds, and evict the privet. All you need is long sleeves & jeans, work gloves, and willing hands.

Sign up through the HoA website: www.handsonatlanta.org. Thanks to Martha Moore for coordinating this effort!

Feb 17 • March 17 • April 21 • May 19 / From 9 – 11 am

Dunwoody Nature Center: 770-394-3322

But it gets rejected. Is that not enough info? There is only so much you can put into the title before it takes over the calendar.

Thanks.. Phil G
