Using Event Page to Create Business Directory?

Events happening in the community are now at Drupal community events on www.drupal.org.

I'd like to modify the event page, with the ability to search year and month, for a business directory. Instead of a "year" drop-down I'd like "sector" and instead of "month" I'd like "category." How can this be accomplished?

what you aren't asking, although not too complicated, it pretty much a whole lesson in drupal.

First, I would suggest that you do not modify the existing event content type.

  1. Create a new content type following this read http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/cck

  2. Understand how drupal core taxonomy works, so you can add your "categories" http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/taxonomy

  3. The create a view with exposed filters to get your "drop-downs" http://drupal.org/node/109604
