Configuring a Public Calendar Page

The Calendar module can be configured on a public website page while the page is open in Edit mode.

These settings control which calendar events appear on that page and how the calendar list view behaves for visitors.

Calendar page in edit mode with module controls

When a Calendar page is open in Edit mode, module settings appear above the public calendar display.

The Calendar page module includes two main accordion sections:

  • Category Picker
  • List View

Category Picker

Use Category Picker to choose which event categories are included on the page.

Select All includes all available categories.

Turning off Select All lets you choose individual categories.

Only events assigned to the selected categories appear on that public calendar page.

Use this setting when different public calendar pages should show different groups of events.

  • Search: controls whether visitors can search events on the calendar page.
  • Disable Category Color: controls whether category colors are used in the public calendar display.
