Planner - Less chaos to attend furry conventions

 Your personal calendar of all furry conventions you plan to go

Picture this!

You have too many conventions now. Then you mark "I plan to go!" and soon enough you realize you are attending more cons than you can remember.

And each has their own dates to register, some is first come first serve, then hotel blocks open. Aaah!

Introducing: Planner

All conventions you Plan to Attend will show in a neat calendar in our https://consurf.net/planner page.

You must start by hitting "I plan to go!" button on each event to start seeing it automagically populate!

And not only that, Important Dates contributed by users (like Reg Close dates, DJ Application Deadlines) are all meshed into it.


Oh... didn't like our choice of colors?

Sync with your calendar app via iCal

Don't keep the tabs open. You can add Consurf directly to your favourite calendar app like Google, Proton or Apple, any app that supports iCal can sync with Consurf.
  1. Go to your Planner (you must have an account)
  2. Select "Generate Calendar Link"
  3. Copy the address
  4. Add as a Live Calendar in your favourite app

That's right, it will sync up! When you "Plan to go" a con, it will show in your calendar app automatically!

Timezones are hard: Let us help!

If you are attending events in a different time zone, Consurf can help calculate important dates in your own time zone, so you don't lose reg opening, or hotel block going up because you are 3 hours behind having your peaceful dinner, and all rooms are going fast!
Blame trains for timezones.

Recap: Here is how you take full advantage

Make sure you are already logged in.

1 - Click on "I plan to go!"


Event dates will now make into your calendar. But there is more:

2 - Know any "Important Date"? Collaborate!

Important dates inside an event page gives everyone crucial info on important deadlines or milestones of that convention.

Those dates will appear as Yellow Circles in your Consurf calendar, and are also exported in the iCal calendar as "30min appointments" so you don't miss any important notice!

And of course, if someone collaborate and you already subscribe to the calendar, it will auto update!
Do not add your own private dates there, always add official convention dates and milestones. All data is public.

3- Add to your preferred calendar app

Optionally, you can leverage your own calendar app.

After you grab the iCal link, each service has it's own way to add a live calendar, they usually use the term "Subscribe" to external:
Each calendar app pools refreshed data from external calendars in their own schedule.

Most services check every 8h - so it may take a while before new updates are reflected in your calendar after changes are made.
