Oh hi Mike! Forgotton your old password I take it?

There is a way for you to see every single calendar event, though it is not really advertised. You can try the 'feeds' we supply (usually restricted to one club or class). The particular links below will list everything:

Please can we have the old calendar back?

It actually had a useful calendar you could easily look at.

And it was so much more user friendly for clubs to edit the details of their open meetings.

Hi John, I hope my earlier email has alleviated your concerns and explained why we do things the way we do.

Yes Mags,

Your email responses have been very quick and clear.

Unfortunately, the new calendar is just much harder for clubs to administer than the old one and we have less control over how our events are displayed to competitors.

My vote is still to put the old calendar back.

I am sure the Y&Y Team changed the calendar for good reasons and good intentions but the fact is the old calendar as it was was much more user friendly,  probably not a good idea to call it the old calendar because normally something which is new is normally better !!! as an option would it be really that difficult to have both. 
 
Where there many negative comments regarding the calendar as it was which made someone decide to change it, I don`t remember seeing any threads about it.  A good rule of thumb is if its not broke don`t try to fix it. Wink
 
I am sure there will be many who will run in defence of the decision to change it but I just enjoyed the way it was.

Well Canon for my stlye of use the "old" was better because it listed the entire months events in one go as entered in by the clubs or class`s rather then pick & chose for you.
So my vote goe`s to the "old" stlye of calender over the "new".
 
Thank you
