    Data for events and church services can be downloaded by website users as an iCalendar file. This allows event data to be transferred to a personal calendar.

    iCalendar is a standardized data format for exchanging calendar content. The iCalendar format is accepted by almost all calendar programs that can integrate web-based calendar data, including Google Calendar/Android Calendar, Microsoft Outlook, and all macOS/iOS calendar applications.

    Please note: Currently, when creating a website, you have to decide which navigation to use for the header area by selecting the appropriate copy master. It is not possible to change the header area later without considerable manual effort.
