Getting started

This guide takes you from zero to a live events calendar on a page. It should take about five minutes.

Before you start

  • An account on the platform with access to a sub-account (location) you can edit.
  • At least one calendar already set up in that sub-account, with some events on it.
  • A funnel or website page to put the widget on (or create a new one).

1. Install the app

  1. Install Calendar Events from the App Marketplace.
  2. Choose the sub-account to install it into.

Once installed, Calendar Events appears in that sub-account’s left sidebar.

2. Connect your calendars

Open Calendar Events from the sidebar and create a new widget:

  1. Pick the calendars the widget should pull events from. You can choose individual calendars, or filter by group or user.
  2. Give the widget a title and description, and set how many events to show and how far ahead to look (the lookahead window).
  3. Optionally set a No Events Message — the text shown when there are no upcoming events (defaults to “No upcoming events are available.”).
  4. Optionally set a Date Format — choose between medium (Jan 5th, 2025), long, full, or numeric formats including day-first (05/01/2025) for non-US audiences.

3. Pick a display mode and theme

Choose between List, Agenda, Week, or Calendar view, and pick a theme (or override individual colors to match your brand). See Display modes and Themes.

Turn on Add to Calendar and Subscribe to Calendar buttons here too — both default to on.

4. Add the widget to a page

  1. Open the funnel or website page in the platform’s page builder.
  2. Drag in the Calendar Events element.
  3. In the element settings, select the widget you just saved.
  4. Save and publish the page.

That’s it — your events calendar is live.

5. Edit any time

Because the page only references which widget to show, you can keep editing calendars, the display mode, or theme inside the app and your changes appear on every page it’s on — no need to touch or re-publish the page.

Next steps

  • Set up subscriptions so regulars don’t have to keep checking back.
  • Browse the display modes to find the layout that fits your page.
