Supported (date) field types

If your favorite field type is missing, let us know.

Installation

Install this module using the official Backdrop CMS instructions

Create a view with a supported date field type, select the "Fullcalendar NG" display type and configure.

Important note: if it's a multi-value field, make sure that the "Display all values in the same row" setting under "Multiple field settings" of that view field is not checked.

Some basic instructions are available in the Wiki

Additional event sources

FullCalendar can parse (external) json feeds for additional events. See the official documentation about EventSources for more information. One option to create such a resource is the Fullcalendar Feed (Fullcalendar JSON) views format provided by this module.

Dependencies

Bugs and feature requests should be reported in the Issue Queue.

Known issues

Important note: If you have the legacy Fullcalendar module beta version installed, it's essential to either update to the stable release (1.x-2.0) or to uninstall that one before you install Fullcalendar Views NG. Otherwise your site will break.

See this issue for details.

Similar modules

This module is inspired by, but in no way similar to Fullcalendar. It has pros and cons:

  • Pro: It utilizes a current FullCalendar library
  • Pro: It supports a lot more date (field) types
  • Pro: Simpler and more lightweight (OK, that's maybe only relevant for maintainers)
  • Con: It doesn't enable you to edit these field values via calendar, only display (that's by intention)
  • Con: It has less settings (but also an easier configuration form)
