Date Pages have been a part of Mahalo Since the earliest version, they have endured many updates but the format changes between Mahalo 1.0 and 3.0 have taken a toll on the aesthetic look of the page. With Mahalo 3.0 this is the goal for how a Mahalo Date page can look.
The Key factors with date pages is that the long lists that currently occupy the Guide Note section need to be copied and moved into the sidebar.
The Guide note for these pages will include two elements, 1st the traditional explanation to what the date is. For Example - "March 12 is the 71st day of the year (72nd day in leap year) on the Gregorian Calendar. The Zodiac sign for individuals born on this day is Pisces." Followed by a 200-300 word paragraph explaining the major Holidays and celebrations that occur on that day all over the planet. Avoid simply listing significant historical events because they will be listed already in the timeline.
Once the Guide note is complete, just double check that the timeline is in order, feel free to add any missed events and Featured Videos.
The AP Video should be added directly at the top, and you can see how the "more days" section wraps perfectly around it. I suggest the 4 days before and the 4 days after as well as a link to the "Today in History" category.
At the bottom, there is likely a Daily Show "Moment of Zen" section, if the date page you are working on does not have this section, do not try to create one, they were added during a previous Mahalo era and those embed codes can't be added any more.
