Calendar that doesn't group entries into a "2+"

The last part of my app that is clearly missing is a calendar. We currently use an online calendar, but id like to have it run within our app.

The issue is that the user needs to be able to have a view of all activities going on for the month at the same time. This means that some days have 5+ events (all events are all day, we don’t use hours or times for anything), but the calendar auto groups them after a certain amount.

This is such a common feature in calendars, but it really causes us problems. Do i need to come up with some creative way of building a calendar into a table? Suggestions?

Have you tried using Default Mode > Agenda for the calendar component? Or do you prefer viewing multiple days at once?

I need not only multiple days, but the entire month laid out on the screen ideally. Could get by with 2 weeks at a time I guess

The only calender I’ve found that does this is brownbearsw.com

Playing around more with the calendar and it seems to be quite generally lacking, or I am missing the ability or understanding to us it properly. A few examples…

  • Selecting a month/year appears to be only doable using the arrow buttons to scroll month by month
  • If your in month mode, with “Hide Mode Selector” turned on, and you click on the date number it will bring you into day mode with no way to return to month mode without switching tabs and returning to the page?
  • Cant turn off the ability to click on the above mentioned date number in month mode?

I get the sense it is not commonly used, possibly forgotten.

Yes, that’s correct.

Also correct.

I guess the only way is to use CSS.

I don’t use it often, and yeah there are many shortcomings.
