Proper permalink settings are essential for the Calendar Addon to function correctly on your website. Follow these steps to configure them:

• Go to Permalink Settings: From the WordPress dashboard, navigate to the “Settings” menu and select “Permalinks.”
• Set the Permalink Structure: Ensure the “Post name” option is selected from the available permalink structure choices. This setting optimizes URL readability and functionality for the add-on.

Using the Calendar Add-on on the Student Frontend Dashboard #

Once the Calendar Add-on is enabled and permalink settings are configured, students can access and utilize the calendar feature as follows:

• Access the Event Calendar: Students should log in to their frontend dashboard. They will find a dedicated “Event Calendar” menu item, which provides a clear overview of all scheduled meetings and events.
• View Meetings and Events: Within the Event Calendar, students can explore a comprehensive list of upcoming meetings, live sessions, and other significant dates related to their enrolled courses. This feature allows them to plan their learning activities effectively and stay informed about important deadlines or instructor-led sessions.
• View Expired Events: Students can also see a record of expired events, enabling them to review past sessions or deadlines for reference and personal tracking.
• View Live Events: The calendar displays live events currently in progress, allowing students to join ongoing sessions or activities in real-time as they happen.
