The discussion addresses a bug where searching for “calendar enabled” in the admin panel leads to an empty holiday calendar section instead of the expected settings. opcourdis reports the issue, and sam notes it was recently fixed but may not be fully resolved in all environments. nat provides a video demonstrating the behavior, and martin clarifies that the issue stems from the Calendar plugin lacking a unified UI like other plugins. The team acknowledges the need to overhaul the plugin’s admin interface to match standards, with updates expected as part of ongoing work. Moin confirms the settings tab has been added, referencing a merged pull request.
Hi,
If you search in admin for the term calendar enabled and click on it then you land in the holiday calendar section which is empty of options.
Same happens if you click from the vertical list of plugins. The only way to reach the options are to go to installed plugins>calendar otherwise you always land on this page
We fixed this recently, can you try updating to latest?
Not planning any update before a few weeks but I will report here if the update has no impact but I’m sure it will. Thank you for your reply.
Came here because of the solved tag but I assume this should be #calendar-and-event instead.
I just pulled and this is the behaviour.
Very weird, this is not reproing on the admin screen on meta.
@martin fixed here:
https://github.com/discourse/discourse/pull/34349
But somehow there is a case (that can only be reproed on dev envs) that we missed.
I’m not seeing any issue here? In Nat’s video she chooses Plugins > Calendar from the list which takes you to the right place. Calendar > Calendar enabled takes you to the site settings.
It is weird cause you probably want to enable/disable and can not from that screen
Maybe @nat can clarify ?
Yes, the plugin UI for Calendar needs to be overhauled like we have for others like Gamification, Automation, and Chat, the staff-experience team just hasn’t gotten around to it yet.
I could be wrong, but the OP mentions:
So if they’re trying to get to the site settings[1], they’d have to go to “Installed plugins > Calendar”.
When using ⌘ + / then “Footnotes” it goes to Settings, so perhaps the assumption is a similar behaviour.
That’s because Footnotes does not have its own custom admin plugin UI page like Calendar does:
Really the fix here is to make Calendar match plugins like AI and Gamification that have the new plugin UI and have the Settings tab in the same place. From our internal topic (t/122601), these are the plugins that still aren’t done:
Oh that’s great – looks like this is just a matter of time then.
We’ll add an update in this topic when this is merged.
The calendar and events plugin has a settings tab now
