This screen contains global options that affect all calendars in the installation.
Set this to the base URL that people use to access the calendar, e.g., http://www.yourdomain.com/calendar/. This value feeds into the various EMail messages that reference the site.
This is the URL to the page on your site that displays the calendar. If this value is present, and an inbound-link is detected from a social networking site (from_social=1 is a URL parameter), then the view event details page will display a link to the calendar with this URL. If this value is not present, the Base URL is used.
If a user is logged into Connect Daily but does not make a request (change pages, view a calendar, etc), after a certain period their session is expired. When the session is expired, the user will be required to login again. This setting controls how long a session may be inactive before it is timed out. Allowed values are from 1-4 hours. Because each session consumes resources on the server it is not possible to set sessions to never timeout.
If this option is set to Yes, then preferences selected by Guest Users will be retained between browser sessions. If the option is set to No, then Guest User preferences will not be retained. Preferences affected by this include:
If you will have many Users sharing computers, then you will want to turn this option on.
Enabling this option will cause Connect Daily to send web pages to the browser compressed in the GZIP format. This can result in a compression factor of six (6) times. This can make your calendar noticeably faster to end Users. Our testing indicates requests serviced per minute were reduced by 2.3% when GZIP compression is enabled. The program will automatically detect if this is supported by the browser. This feature may not work on certain servlet engines and connectors. If it works with your installation, we recommend that you enable it.
If this option is set, then a User will be required to use SSL to login to the calendar and all internal pages will require SSL. If the browser is not using SSL, then it will be re-directed to the page using SSL.
