URL parameters

Template URL parameter

The template parameter is an optional parameter that can be:

  • Included in the url argument in the $Trumba.addSpud() method.
  • Appended to the trumbaEmbed parameter in a URL-encoded query string.

I'd like to see a complete list of URL parameters.

Application

Sets the main view of a published calendar to one of the 21 views listed on the Publish Settings page.

Tip To open the Publish Settings page, in the editing environment, click Publish Settings. If the calendar is already published, in the Publishing Control Panel, on the Publish Settings tab, click Edit Publish Settings.

Also sets the current view in the view chooser spud.

Tell me more about main calendar views and view chooser spuds.

Values

Each calendar view has its own parameter value as described in the following table.

Note The parameter values for calendar views are subject to change. Please use the parameters listed here with the understanding that, if they change, the outdated parameter will be ignored. The calendar will display in its default view.

Works with

  • Main calendar spud
  • View chooser spud

Examples

url argument, $Trumba.addSpud() method, Main calendar spud

Sets the main calendar view to List.

<script type="text/javascript">
$Trumba.addSpud(
{ webName: "calendarname",
  spudType: "main",
  url: {template:"list"}
});
</script>

url argument, $Trumba.addSpud() method, View chooser spud

Sets the current view in the view chooser spud to Photo Events.

<script type="text/javascript">
$Trumba.addSpud(
{ webName: "calendarname",
  spudType: "chooser",
  url: {template:"photoevents"}
});
</script>

Tip Using a url argument template parameter to set the current view in the view chooser does not automatically change the view in the main calendar. To set the current view in both spuds, add the url argument template parameter to the view chooser and main calendar spud embed code.

URL-encoded query string

In main calendar and view chooser spuds displayed at the base URL, sets the current view to Detail List - Date.

http://www.yoursite.com/calendar.html?trumbaEmbed=template%3Ddetaillistdate

Tip %3D is the URL-encoded equals sign (=). %26 is the URL encoded ampersand (&).
