Best Practices

Please follow these best practices in order to create performant, web-standard, and reliable events for the University Events Calendar.

  1. Only apply the “uec” keyword to events that are available to the university community as a whole.
  2. Always add a Featured Image in your event. The Featured Image is the only image that gets imported during automatic imports. Please use web-optimized images in jpg or png format.
  3. Always include a description, date, time, and location. If you have ticketing or RSVPs for your event, be sure to create a call to action that links to the location where users can accomplish this.
  4. Do not edit your event’s title after it is created.
  5. Use APA formatting and follow the University Writing Style Guide when creating your event language to ensure it is conventional and meets university standards.
  6. Always make sure your event description and images meet Web Content Accessibility.
