Which date fields work with the Calendar View?

Any date or datetime field in your entity schema works with the Calendar View. This includes built-in fields like createdAt and updatedAt, as well as custom date fields you define in the schema builder — publish date, due date, event date, or any other date field you create.

What happens if my entity type has no date field?

If no custom date field is configured, the Calendar View automatically falls back to the createdAt timestamp. Every entity has a createdAt field, so the calendar always has something to display. You can switch to a different date field at any time in the view settings.

How many items can a single day show?

Each day cell shows up to 3 colored dots as indicators. If a day has more than 3 items, a "+X" overflow badge appears. Clicking the day expands it to show all items with their titles and status badges — there is no limit on how many items a day can hold.

Can I use the Calendar View as an editorial calendar?

Yes, this is one of the most popular use cases. Set your blog posts or content entities to use the "publish date" field as the calendar driver. You will see exactly when each piece of content is scheduled, spot gaps in your publishing schedule, and click any item to edit it directly.

Do color-coded dots match my entity type colors?

Yes. The colored dots on each day cell use the color assigned to the entity type in your schema. If you have multiple entity types visible, each type gets its own color so you can tell them apart at a glance.

Can I change which date field drives the calendar?

Yes. Each entity type remembers which date field is used for the calendar. Open the view settings and select any date or datetime field from your schema. The calendar re-renders immediately with the new date field. This setting is saved per entity type, so blog posts can use "publish date" while tasks use "due date".

Does the Calendar View update in real-time?

Yes. Like all WISEROWS views, the Calendar View is powered by Convex reactive queries. When a teammate updates an entity — whether through the UI, AI chat, or API — the calendar reflects the change instantly. No manual refresh needed.

Can I navigate between months quickly?

Yes. The calendar has previous/next month navigation arrows and a "Today" button to jump back to the current month. When you navigate between months, any expanded day detail card is automatically collapsed to keep the view clean.
