GCalendar
The GCalendar component allows us to connect a Google calendar to Joomla!. We created a gmail account to manage 3 calendars for the Stroke Club: Adults (brown colour), All (blue) and Young (green). These calendars are presented in “Event Calendar” menu. In same page there is a list of 5 “Upcoming Events”. “Upcoming Events” are shown on the front page as well. The calendars are public, this means than any member of the stroke club can copy events in his/her Google Calendar. Members using Microsoft Outlook should read “Introduction to Google Calendar Synchronization”.
There are two calendar views: GCalendar and Google. GCalendar view is easy the read. Google view is more flexible and can be used for 24-hour and 12-hour clock without any additional setting.
We decide that we need a readable calendar for our members. By definition GCalendar use 24-hour clock. Here are your settings for 12-hour clock.

There is a small glitch with the tooltip time format for “Upcoming Events”. It seems that isn’t possible to setup the format “h:m tt” and we setup as “h:i”.
