Calendar View Enhancements in Sparkforge

The enhanced Calendar View in Sparkforge separates scheduling by type, swaps in only the relevant filters, and gives you more screen space for events. The interface adapts based on which scheduling types your agency has enabled.

Scheduling types

• Meetings: covers all legacy calendars including Personal, Round Robin, Collective, Class, Service Menu, and Service Calendars (v1).
• Services (v2): built for service businesses with variations, add-ons, and per-staff pricing.
• Rentals: coming soon, designed for studios, venues, and equipment rentals.

Smart Dropdown navigation

When more than one scheduling type is enabled in Agency Settings, a dropdown appears at the top of the calendar to switch between them. With only one type active the dropdown stays hidden.

Contextual filters

The right-hand filter panel updates based on the active scheduling type so you only see filters that apply.

Meetings filters

• Users
• Calendars
• Groups

Services filters

• Staff
• Services
• Categories
• Location (when Unified Service View is on)

Unified Service View

Toggle this on to group all service-based bookings across staff into a single timeline. Useful for spotting overlaps, coverage gaps, and open slots across multiple locations.

More space for events

Padding is reduced and the filter panel can be hidden.

1. Click Manage View in the top right.
2. Hide or unhide the right-side panel.
3. Adjust zoom or screen size to fit more events.

The Manage View setting is per-user, so hiding the panel doesn't affect anyone else.

Mini month calendar

The mini month picker now sits directly under the main date. Click the date to expand or collapse it for fast month jumps without leaving the current week or day view.

Availability and setup

The enhanced view turns on automatically once Meetings, Services (v2), or both are enabled in Agency Settings. To enable Services across many sub-accounts at once, use Agency Settings → Subaccount → Bulk Actions → Setup Calendars.
