Since we do not have the resources to create a custom API interface between Populi and our website, we'd love to have an easy to use publication of certain Populi data that could easily integrate with our website (similar to how the online application works). To have the school calendar, course catalogue, and course schedules in a public format would be great. If was an iframe we could simply wrap the Populi publication in our site's skin.

Andrew Sears I agree. This would be very helpful. Right now we have to manage public webpages for our courses as well as those that require a login. It would be nice to be able to do both from Populi.

Adam Sentz We added the ability to publish your course schedule online a couple months ago.

Andrew Sears Adam,
Thanks. We would also need links to public course descriptions. Here is an example of what we would like to replace with something more dynamic.

Lee Richards Andrew, I agree. I really like the ability to publish the course schedule online so it is visible without a login, but a few enhancements would make it much more useful.
1) Ability to disable some columns (i.e., campus and add/drop date).
2) Ability to display course descriptions and required textbooks (or make the course titles links to view those).
3) Ability to click on instructors to either email them or see a bio page.
4) Column to show location (building and room number).

Stephen Sellers It would be a great addition if we were able to generate an embedded code to put the school calendar and main dates on a website. This way, important public information could be available on a website.
