Hmm, my calendar categories is showing the calendar above the category topic list, but without any events. Can anyone reproduce this?

[image] MarcP: I am using the basic config + defaultView=listNextYear I have given that a run-through as well, and it seems to be working okay for me. Just to confirm I’m doing it right… :slight_smile: Create topic for calender with this code in the OP: [calendar] [/calendar] Add reply to the calendar topic with an event. eg: It's my birthday! [date-range from=2022-08-27 to=2022-08-27 timezone="Europe/London"] In Calendar settings, set eg categoryId=37;postId=1084;defaultView=listNextYear in calendar categories Which gives this above the category I selected to home it: [image]

Yes that is exactly what I’m doing. Strange it is not working for me, it did work in the past tho.

Hi @JammyDodger, I’m running into the same problem on our company’s staging site. I followed your steps and nothing show up. However, when I used the Event plugin and had the events calendar categories option turned on, and created an event within that category, it showed up just fine.

This is interesting. I’m not sure what I’m doing differently that makes mine show up. :thinking: Did you get yours working in the end @MarcP?

I don’t think calendar (category) is supposed to show events, but dates (official plugin)

Nope it’s still not working! Ended up not using it anymore. @Benjamin_D it is. It used to work in the past. The calendar widget should be able to be displayed above a category.

I think my run-through was too simple after all. I’ll have a deeper dive and see if I can pin down what I’m missing (and hopefully land on a fix of some sort :slight_smile: :crossed_fingers:)

You did exactly how it’s supposed to be (and worked for me in the past). That’s why I’m confused about it.

:thinking: I think categorization of events does work with the pavilion plugin: Events Plugin 📅 I’ve never seen it work with the official calendar plugin, which had some event functionality added a few years ago. [calendar] is meant to display the [date] s of its topic, that’s why the option category calendar asks for a postId. [event] s of the whole site are only displayed in the calendar of the route upcoming-events (which is also make with the js lib fullcalendar, as the calendar ones ) edit: my bad, never seen this one: config/settings.yml 5a9ae9110 events_calendar_categories: type: category_list client: true default: ""

So if I understand correctly, you’re trying to display the events of a particular category in a calendar with a defaultView parameter leveraging the fact that this parameter is accepted in the calendar categories option (but not in the events calendar categories though) and FEATURE: add events calendar on the category page (#248) · discourse/discourse-calendar@b900276 · GitHub If a category is present in both events calendar categories and calendar categories then priority is given to calendar categories hum, can’t make that work, but would be nice indeed :sweat_smile:
