When we launched a new site look and feel in October, the mini-calendar took a mini-vacation. But when your feedback started pouring in, we realized it was time to call mini-cal and plead for its safe retun home.

We’re happy to announce that, as of January 26, the mini-calendar is back! Showing up as soon as you log into BigTent, and on every group buzz page after that, the mini-calendar bolds the dates when your groups have activities planned.

There’s also a text preview of two of the day’s events, and a link to view your full monthly calendar:

Mini-cal has had a few makeovers in its day. Here’s a gallery of how the feature has changed over time:

Oh those features, they grow up so fast! Got questions or comments? Just let us know.

We’re excited to share a whole new Big Tent site with you today!

We’ve been working hard the past several months to bring you even better ways to support your groups.
