calendar web part on modern pages
Any chance we can get an ordinary calendar web part on our modern pages?
Events web part is not enough and the group calendar is only for, well, groups :-) We have the need for a modern page with ...
Event web part is what we get for the time being, at least in Modern experience. If the Classic web part is what suits your needs, you can make a Classic style page by making a Web Part Page in your Site Pages library and set that up according to your needs.
I doubt the Events web part is the last word from SharePoint on Modern-izing the Calendar app (Microsoft's been slowly updating SharePoint site apps to the Modern experience), so at some point in the future I expect we'll see something more suitable to your needs.
"I doubt the Events web part is the last word from SharePoint on Modern-izing the Calendar app (Microsoft's been slowly updating SharePoint site apps to the Modern experience)"
Slowly? that's an understatement. Probably about 2 years in and yet still no Calendar update. They've probably moved on to the next big shiny thing, like they do and will leave "modern" half finished.
Have we had any update on when SharePoint Online is going to provide a decent Calendar web Part? I'm pretty sure most smaller companies using SharePoint are wanting to have a Leave Calendar on the landing page and not have it broken down in to teams or have to do convoluted Web coding to get it working.
We are also in the process of trying to migrate from classic to modern, but we use the monthly calendars heavily. I can't believe they did not put out a webpart that does this from the beginning. Any idea if/when Microsoft will make it a priority to create this webpart? Seems pretty basic, and there appears to be a lot of interest in it.
