Half of this article is adding actually adding events as a list not even a calendar – why on earth has it not been possible for MS to develop a responsive calendar web part for modern sites?!

When adding a calendar from another site onto a site page using the Events web part, is it possible to post new events to that other calendar using this web part? When I click the `+ Add event` button from the web part and create an event, it doesn’t get saved to the calendar on display – rather it gets saved into different Event list within the site. Is this working as expected or should I be able to add to the external calendar?

In reply to Erika. At the end of the URL, make it like this: /calendar.aspx?IsDlg=1

In reply to Roch. What would the revised embedded URL look like? Where is the parameter added? Thanks!

Hi there,

About the embed web part, note that it is possible to hide the page header by adding the parameter IdDlg=1 into the URL:

Good article, but I can’t believe (well actually i can because SP Online is painful) that MS now don’t have a web part to show a calendar as a proper calendar!

I have many business users who have site homepage and portal pages with this and the move to SPO is really making them all hate SP even more than before.

Dumping it in an iFrame and having the whole page displayed is ancient tech – pathetic and nothing ‘modern’ about it.

Thanks MS.

In reply to Theo. This is available now. Go to custom list, create new view, select calendar.

Article says how to create a SharePoint Modern Calendar list, then never does so. Only picks an already existing list without showing us how it got created.
