On the 'to-do' List

An event search by keyword or date will show a sample of u3a activities across the country. How extensive that sample is depends upon the willingness of u3a site editors to register date-related information (details of forthcoming meetings, visits, social occasions, etc.) using the relevant software features.

The option to register events has been carried over from the Site Builder to SiteWorks, although the SiteWorks event is more highly structured with several extra attibutes. It will be possible to extract event entries from SiteWorks-based sites with an API ilike the one for group data, and combine with Site Builder records for subsequent searches. That is the next area for investigation but at present the only search results we can demonstrate come from the Site Builder database.

The example below shows all events planned for the following day across all the sites, arranged geographically as usual. You can do another search by entering either a word or phrase or a date (in format yyyy-mm-dd) in the search box above and pressing Return or 'Go'. Very long event descriptions in the hitlist are truncated - click the link to see the full record.
