I have a situation where the customer requirements call for three calendars within each of 5 sections of a site. One calendar is nothing more than a list view of the top 3-5 items of the main events calendar. The other two are for events and their speaking team.

For each of the two calendars within the 5 sections, the section editor will be able to add items. However each speaking team calendar needs to have the speaking team calendars from the other 4 sections added as sub-calendars. For example, if the calendar names are SP[1-5]. I navigate to page where SP1 is located and add these sub-calendars (SP2, SP3, SP4, SP5). I navigate to page where SP2 is located and add SP1, SP3, SP4, SP5 and so forth until I have the effect of the same calendar info on all 5 pages.

ISSUE: Once I add the other 4 speaking team calendars to the first one (SP1), that calendar is no longer available in the drop-down list for SP2. I move to SP2 to add (SP1, SP3, SP4, SP5), but I only see SP3, SP4, SP5. It's like this as I go down the line.

I thought perhaps it was due to 3.3.8, so i rolled back a version, but it's the same thing there too. So I'm not sure if this is a function of the calendar or what. I'm pretty sure I had another calendar on a page that I added as subcalendar to several pages prior to this and didnt' have an issue w/a calendar not appearing in sub-calendar dropdown after it was added to another one.

Any insight or help is very much appreciated.

Thx,
Tj

Tj.  The Event module no longer supports "unlimited recursion"...so what this means to you, Calendar1 can be added to Calendar2.  However, if Calendar2 is added to Calendar3, Calendar1' s events will not show in Calendar3.  Does this answer the question?

Yes it does. Thanks. that also explains why I am able to take one calendar and place it on multiple calendars' sub-calendar and why my initial tests seemed to work until i attempted multiple ones in my example above.

It appers that my best alternative is to create an "admin" page for all Speaker Team editors to add their events to and then place a calendar in each section and add that one central calendar.

Thanks for the quick response.
