Questions on App Connect Calendar

Wappler General Need Help
1

Hi,
I read both docs (Getting started with App Connect Event Calendar and App Connect Calendar dynamic events) and they were great to get me going with this widget.

Unfortunately, I have several questions that I could not find answers in the published material, so here they are, all conveniently packed :slight_smile:

  1. In the Calendar Properties, under the Field called Views
  • (this may be a bug, but I don’t know) If there a way to hide the “month” button shown in the top-right corner of the calendar when the only option selected in Views is “month”?
  • How is the “Now Indicator” option used?

  1. What is the purpose of the fields Event Order and Event Limit and how do I use them?

  2. What is the purpose of Views Specific Options > Calendar options and how do I use them?

  3. What is the purpose of the Constraints option and how do I use it?

  4. How do I use the Dynamic Attributes > Calendar options?

  5. How do I use the Dynamic Events > Calendar > Success/Failure options?

  6. How do I restrict a user from creating an event outside of a given date boundary? For example, I want users to be unable to create an event that starts say 2 weeks before Date X and that ends 1 week after today.

  7. I thought that if I selected the “No event overlap” option, that if there are other events in the middle of the one I’m creating, then the calendar will not allow me to create a new event. But it looks like I’m able to create such event. Am I missing something important?

Many thanks in advance!

@Teodor, @wappler_ambassadors
Any help you can provide here will be deeply appreciated. My priority is point 7: I thought it would be simple to restrict a user from only selecting event dates that fall inside a given min date and max date (like what I can do with the date picker), but can’t find how to do it.

Many thanks folks!

Hi @aschoijett. Regarding point 7, I would put validation into your Server Connect action file so it’s impossible to process dates outside the range you want to allow.

Hi Jon,
Thanks for your prompt answer.
What you’re suggesting would work but Users would find out that they made a bad choice only after we run the server action.

I was hoping to have a way of configuring the calendar to disable dates, both those before a minimum date and those after a maximum date, so Users cannot select them at all.
