What you are seeing

A signed-out visitor sees a calendar that looks complete but is missing events.


#Why it happens

Saved calendar events are never loaded for signed-out readers; only dates on the page itself are shown. The "Recently viewed" and "Pages where mentioned" sources also produce nothing for them, and "assigned to me" is unavailable.


#What to do

The product shows a banner. "Showing dates from this page. Saved calendar events are visible to signed-in readers.". Or a "Sign in to view this calendar" empty state. Sign in to see the full calendar.

Large calendars are drained page by page, so they issue many round trips and show a load progress bar.
