How to provide passworded access to several users	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote
	[Delete this Thread]

1. If I want a restricted set of several users to view my public web calendar (with no ability to change the calendar), can I do it through the following procedure: (1) set my public web calendar sharing to PRIVATE, (2) create a second member name (username and password), then (3) notify these other users of the same username and password? I'm trying to keep the setup and sign-on process as simple as possible.

2. If I do Item #1, will only one person be able to see the calendar at a time?

3. If each person sets up their own member name and password with Localendar, will they all be able to login and view my calendar at the same time?

Here's how I'd go about this:

1. Have each viewer create an account at localendar
2. Purchase a Premium Basic (9.95/yr) subscription smile

3. Add each of the viewers on the Security screen (button on the Premium menu tab)

Anyone visiting the calendar will have to supply a valid id/pass that you have authorized. And yes; they can all view it simultaneously.

My problem is that I would like to run my calendar publicly (for all to see) but still have a few secure names where a password would be needed to change or add details
Is this possible

When you say

have a few secure names where a password would be needed to change or add details

Do you mean a few secure events
Currently, you cannot protect individual events.

If you wanted, you could store these types of events on a separate calendar (which you merge into yours) and only share the password for that second calendar with authorized editors.
