URL parameters

Events parameter (promotion spuds)

The events 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

Specifies the number of events to display in a promotion spud, such as an Upcoming Events, Photo Upcoming, or Upcoming Events Crawler spud.

For promotion spuds such as the Upcoming Events Crawler, Upcoming Fader, and Upcoming Vertical Crawler, specifies the number of events the spud cycles through before it refreshes. Typically, for scrolling spuds, you set a relatively large number (the default is 50).

Values

An integer greater than or equal to 1.

Works with

  • Promotion spuds

Examples

url argument, $Trumba.addSpud() method, Photo Upcoming spud

Sets the number of events that display in a Photo Upcoming promotion spud to 5.

<script type="text/javascript">
$Trumba.addSpud(
{ webName: "calendarname",
  spudType: "upcomingphoto",
  url: {events:"5"}
});
</script>

url argument, $Trumba.addSpud() method, Upcoming Vertical Crawler spud

Sets to 30 the number of events that the spud cycles through before it refreshes.

<script type="text/javascript">
$Trumba.addSpud(
{ webName: "calendarname",
  spudType: "upcomingvcrawler",
  url: {events:"30"}
});
</script>

URL-encoded query string

Sets the number of events in the promotion spud(s) embedded at the target webpage to 6.

Note If a main calendar spud is also embedded in the target webpage, the events parameter affects both the promotion and main calendar spuds.

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