Capable Sites
All three macros carry over when you publish a page to a static site. Calendar shows a working calendar grid plus a downloadable .ics file. Event shows its inline date pill plus an .ics button. Clock keeps ticking in the visitor's browser.
#Worth knowing
A static calendar shows up to 500 events. If there are more, the page says "Only the first 500 events are included on static sites."
If a calendar macro is linked to a saved calendar that can't be read when the site is built, the page says "Linked calendar asset could not be loaded for this static export."
An Event macro left on the default Time zone shows in UTC on a static site. Pick a time zone in the macro if you want it to show local time.
#Where you do it
Task | Where |
|---|---|
Show the dates already on a page as a calendar | Page editor → insert "Calendar (Capable)" (Suite) or "Calendar macro (Capable)" (standalone) |
Add a set of world clocks | Page editor → insert "Clock (Capable)" / "Clock macro (Capable)" |
Add an inline event date to a page | Page editor → insert "Event (Capable)" / "Event macro (Capable)" |
#Settings that affect this
Setting | Where | What it does |
|---|---|---|
Calendar subscriptions | Confluence settings → Capable (Capable Calendar in the standalone app) → Features | "Let users subscribe to Capable calendars from Google, Apple, or Outlook via a personal iCal feed. Turn off to disable subscriptions for all users." Only appears when the installed app includes the Calendar capability. |
Calendar (global settings tab) | Confluence settings → Capable → Calendar | The "Calendar subscriptions" card lists the personal iCal feed links your users have generated, with user, calendar, status and created date. Use Previous and Next to page through them. |
Calendar capability visibility | Space settings → Capable → capability list → Calendar | Auto shows the byline where it's relevant. In the Suite, that means only on pages Capable already knows contain dates. Always turns Calendar on for the space. Never hides it there. |
#Limits that apply here
Limit | Value | What happens |
|---|---|---|
Static site calendar export | 500 events | Beyond that the exported page prints "Only the first 500 events are included on static sites." |
