Adding events

Events are configured as a submodule in git. When you edit this page events automatically get changed on the main website. To add an event, edit the events.csv.

When updating the csv of events:

• Use yyyy-mm-dd format for date. The year must be 4 digits (may need to adjust display settings in Microsoft Excel). Otherwise, 15 may be interpreted as 1915 instead of 2015.

new Date("9/15/15")
Date 1915-09-15T04:00:00.000Z
new Date("9/15/2015")
Date 2015-09-15T04:00:00.000Z

• Fields can be left blank if data does not exist or is TBD

• Strings need to be wrapped in these characters "Event title" not these “Event title”

• Include the two letter country code to include the correct flag

• Double quotes inside strings need to be typed twice (e.g ,"Congress Centre ""Le Manège"", Chambéry, France",)
