Is it possible to display events on the calendar for the BACKEND. Right now, the calendar will only show appointments and this is not helpful to me (unless I'm doing something wrong).
I currently offer classes and workshops to the public and have been entering them in Amelia as "events" because "appointments" does not allow me to create time slots like Events do.
Anyway, the EVENTS LIST on the back end is SO difficult to get a full visual of the calendar month. Anytime I adjust or make changes and save it, the page scrolls to the top and then I have to make sure all of the dates are correct by going through PAGES of events. Currently I have a google calendar document set up so I can see all of the events I make, which is MORE work for me in the end. It would be so great to be able to see a full MONTHS worth of events scheduled in a CALENDAR view, not a list.
Another thing, the events booking list on the Front end.... Is there a way to make this new method into a calendar again or improve the out of date calendar booking? The Calendar booking is not really user friendly. A lot of my clients find it difficult to follow. It doesn't show the full event name and if there are multiple events on the same day, people don't realize they need to click on it to enlarge the options. Very frustrating. Also, can the calendar booking be adjusted to display the week with SUNDAY first? Right now the default is MONDAY first day of the week- not sure if I missed this in the settings/customization anywhere.
The events booking list is okay... but again, it seems to be confusing my customers. I'm not really sure what to do.
Regarding the back-end, we are actively working on redesigning the calendar page to improve its functionality. However, at this time, we don't have an estimated release date for when this update will be available.
As for the front-end, we will soon be releasing a 2.0 version of the calendar event booking form. This update aims to enhance the user experience and address some of the current issues you've mentioned.
To change the start of the week day, you need to change the following option on the WordPress/General page.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
