I’m working on an education management app and I need some help understanding how to best replicate a feature that was available in WeWeb’s deprecated calendar object.
In the old version, I could define multiple calendars and categories, which was super helpful. For example, I could create one calendar per classroom and categorize events by course type. This allowed me to view, on a single day, all the lessons across different rooms, each clearly distinguished.
Now with the new FullCalendar integration, it seems that the calendar structure has changed. I’d like to know:
How can I create a calendar per classroom (room) using FullCalendar?
Is it possible to filter or group events by course type or category (e.g., theory, lab, workshop)?
What’s the best approach to visualize all rooms in one calendar, or alternatively, switch between rooms while keeping course types visually distinct?
Any suggestions or examples would be greatly appreciated!
I’d suggest asking WeWeb AI to add the feature to the calendar element.
On one of my projects, I selected the calendar on the page and prompted:
Please configure this calendar to show the events of two people, it’s for a demo, generate fake events for two people. Don’t use groupId to do this. Create a new property if needed
It worked like a charm. By default, the AI used groupId to separate the two calendars but it’s a property that lets you move all the events of a group at the same time so not what we want here which is why I had to specify it shouldn’t use it but could create a new one if needed.
Hi @Joyce,
thank you so much for your kind and detailed response — I truly appreciated it!
Your explanation was super clear and helpful. I’ll definitely try following your suggestion and use WeWeb AI with a custom prompt, avoiding groupId as you recommended. It’s great to know that creating new properties works so smoothly in this context.
Thanks again for your precious advice and support!
I tried this for fun and learned (from the calendar the AI edited) that you can pass an array of values to filterbykey in the formula builder. Perhaps thats obvious to coders? But I had never tried it before. Made a note in my docs so I don’t forget this useful tip!
Very cool! Thanks for taking the time to share this @dhew, really appreciate it! The filterByKey formula is one of my favorites! It’s so powerful it makes me feel like I’m super smart and doing something super complex
Hi @BenGiordano did you succeed in making the new calendar able to manage « sub calendars » per rooms. I need the same to be able to replace the deprecated calendar element.
But so far, Weweb AI didn’t provide me useful output
