Creating an Events Calendar or Events List on Your Page

By creating a calendar or list, you can easily show all your upcoming events at a glance. For example, if you are a coach and you want to have a coaching call calendar. Or you want to show all the live events you are doing in the next couple of months. Or if you want your members to have a calendar with all the upcoming webinars that they can join. Any of this can be shown in a very visual and simple way!

This is what the Events Calendar looks like:

This is what the events list looks like:

Creating an Events Calendar

1. Create your Events (Check our Basic Events Guide if you want to know how!)

2. Go to the page where you want to add your calendar or create a new one

3. Add a new section and search for ‘Events calendar’

4. Once added, you will see some options to personalize it on the left-hand side:

• How many weeks should we show?

• Only show events with this label - This is very handy if you only want to show some events. For example, if you are a coach and you want to only show your public events. You will need to first label the events that you want to show (check how labels work in this manual) and choose that label on this setting. This allows you to have two different calendars that show different events depending on the label they have been given. It could be handy for academies that have more than one cohort or if you want to create a calendar on your public site different than the calendar on your membership site. 

• Don’t add a scrollbar when the calendar gets too long - If ticked, long calendars will show as many weeks as you selected without a scrollbar. If unticked, we will add a scrollbar so it doesn’t take up that much space on the page.

• Other appearance settings - Width, style, background image, background video, background overlay color, custom heading color

• Make calendar transparent - Not recommended but might be useful for some layouts

• Show Zoom events that don't have a fixed time

• Limit the number of events shown - This will give you three options:

  • Only show a fixed number of events - If selected, it will prompt you to select the number of events

  • Only show events in the duration I specify - If selected, it will prompt you to choose the duration

  • Show all events

• Other appearance settings - Width, padding, style, background image, background video, background overlay color, custom heading color

• Make the event box transparent
