confusion from the users and PMs of those teams, wondering why the data does not show up on their project profile page

Recommended Action Items

• Make 2 new issues
  • add the links for the issues to the bottom of this issue

Potential solutions [draft]

Issue 1 - Medium

• Currently the Events page has Day, Time, Name of Project, Name of Meeting
  • Add asterisk if it's not weekly
  • At the bottom of the Online Project Team Meetings card, add the following text

    *This meeting is not weekly, check project link for more details.
    

Issue 2 - medium

• Currently any Project Info page (e.g., TDM Calculator) has Day, Time, Name of Meeting
  • Add description

Special notes

• The data for all these pages should be coming from the JSON data stored on our repo, not from the VRMS API directly.
• an example of how to get all the meeting data required
  • Currently, the project-meetings](https://www.hackforla.org/project-meetings page has all the data, no change is necessary

@ExperimentsInHonesty

• I am working on issue 1. When it says *This meeting is not weekly, check project link for more details. . do you mean the Onboarding meeting or the meetings that don't happen 1-7 of each month? I checked a few of the project pages and didn't find any specific mention on meetings that are not weekly.
• Is that information/description added by the issue 2 in this ER?
• In Issue 2, What is the description to be added? Will the dev be making changes to _data/external/vrms-data.json?
• Is issue 1 dependent on issue 2?

[Thinking-Panda]

A few projects have a description already. For instance Home Unite US- PM/Org "alternating week", Civic Tech Jobs-All "3rd week". but the description is not displayed on the website.

@ExperimentsInHonesty Never mind, I understand the issues now.
