Manage events on the calendar¶
In addition to clicking on events to edit them directly, you can click-and-drag on events to change their characteristics as well.
Moving events¶
Move an event around on a day or between days. This works just as well with all-day events.
Drag to change duration¶
Drag the endpoint of event to change ending time
Creating and editing: validations and duplicates¶
When using the modal to create or edit an event, the plugin validates inputs in real time:
- Duplicate detection: If an event with the same date and final title would collide in its target calendar:
- Full Note calendars: creation is blocked because the underlying filename would be identical (see below).
- Daily Note calendars: duplicates are not allowed; another list item with the same visible title on that date under the configured heading will be flagged.
- Note: Duplicate checks in Daily Notes compare the visible title (category prefix is ignored if Advanced Categories are enabled).
- Category-aware titles: If Advanced Categories are enabled, the Title field accepts "SubCategory - Title" and the Category is selected separately. The plugin reconstructs the full title when writing.
Limitations applied by calendar type during editing:
- Daily Note calendars do not support recurring events or multi-day single events.
- Recurring instance overrides inherit some properties (e.g., title/category) from the parent; attempting to edit those fields prompts to open the parent.
Moving between calendars¶
- Currently, moving events is supported between Full Note calendars only. Moving to or from a Daily Note calendar is not supported.
