Announcing soSIMPLE Web & iCal module.
We’re proud to announce the latest product in our soSIMPLE lineup. The soSIMPLE Calendar Web & iCal module plays an important part in our product line. We’ve taken all of the power of our venerable Server-powered soSIMPLE Calendar, added an new web-based configuration tool, and wrapped it up as a standalone web component.
As a result, you no longer need to have PHP installed on your FileMaker server or make special configuration changes for third-party hosting. All you need to do is drop our web folder on your public-facing web server and type the address into your browser. Up comes the configuration where you connect it to FileMaker Server, and you’re on your way.
We’re very proud of the efforts that went into building this calendar. We were able to successfully migrate nearly all of the features from our flagship product into a streamlined interface. This includes the powerful url filtering feature that allows you to filter the calendar from the URL based on fields in your database. You can also change many configuration options on-the-fly from the URL. And we’ve improved security to allow you to login to the calendar with your FileMaker account and password. All this without using up WebDirect licenses.
And those filters apply to the iCal feed as well. So your FileMaker events have a new beginning by showing up alongside the rest of your life in your Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Microsoft Outlook and so on.
In the premiere release of this module, we’ve bundled in the soSIMPLE Calendar Add-on, too. That way, one purchase gets you all the soSIMPLE Calendar features both inside the FileMaker product, on the web, and in iCal.
