Assign to a BLUEview Network Channel

For events to appear on your BLUEview Network channel, it must be tagged under “Assign to a BLUEview Network Channel” in the Localist events calendar.  

Your custom digital signage channel will show events generated from the Fredonia events calendar in the following formats:

18 General Campus Events appear on ALL channels, in every area, on all displays.
These general events only need to be tagged as “EVENTS @ FREDONIA” under “Assign to a BLUEview Network Channel” in Localist (events.fredonia.edu).

Events Calendar Listings Example

10 Area-Specific Events appear on the displays in your area.
These area-specific events must be tagged with your area under “Assign to a BLUEview Network Channel” in Localist (events.fredonia.edu).
