What is the best way to setup a weekly schedule? For each start and end date period, add a new schedule with the appropriate office hours and classes for that date period. Then use the shortcode include attribute to have the appropriate schedule shown for the current date. ### I am a faculty advisor with set advising hours. How do I include the advising times in my schedule? Either add a separate office hours block with a different block title and background color for each advising time block or add a new schedule with the same start and end dates as the regular office hours and classes schedule with the advising time blocks. ### Is multisite supported?
