Add a calendar to a Confluence page

To add a calendar to a Confluence page, type /calendar in the editor and choose Calendar (Capable). Leave Source unset to show the dates already on the page, or pick a saved calendar to show its events. Choose the View it opens in, such as Month or Agenda, then publish the page.


#Before you start

  • You need permission to edit the page.

  • In the standalone app the macro is called Calendar macro (Capable).

  • To show a shared calendar, it must already exist, or you can create it from the Source picker.


#Steps

  1. Open the page in the editor, type /calendar and choose Calendar (Capable).

  2. On the Content tab, set Source: leave it unset for this page's dates, pick a space or global calendar, or choose Create new calendar.

  3. If you picked a saved calendar, turn on Event editing to let readers add and edit events from the page.

  4. Choose a View (Day, Week, Month, Year or Agenda) and where it should Start on.

  5. Optionally frame it on the Style tab with a border, shadow or highlight colour.

  6. Close the panel and publish the page.


#What happens next

The calendar shows on the page in the view you chose. Readers cannot switch views inside the macro; they press Maximize for a full calendar with a view switcher. On a busy day the extras collapse into a +N more link, whose popover now opens above the calendar and closes itself when you click an event.



The dates were already there. Now people can see them.
