[ARCHIVED] View More Than 10 Class Calendars at Once?

[tb2386]

I can only see 10 class calendars at a time but am enrolled in 13 courses. This is troubling, as my weekly schedule does not accurately reflect all lectures, homework assignments, and obligations entered by my professors. Can I toggle settings to see all class calendars at once?

Hi  @tb2386 ‌ ~

Unfortunately, only 10 calendars are able to be viewed at a single time on either the browser/desktop version of Canvas and in the mobile app.

From https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-10710-67952724400 :

To help manage user calendars, courses customized in the courses drop-down menu as a favorite course will always be listed at the top of the user’s calendar list in the calendar sidebar.

Sounds like this could be a great Feature Idea in https://community.canvaslms.com/community/ideas?sr=search&searchId=918d254e-fb40-49c6-b465-750a6e233...‌! (https://community.canvaslms.com/docs/DOC-2109-how-does-the-voting-process-work-for-feature-ideas?sr=...‌)

To Kristin's advice, I wanted to add that a few institutions have been testing an option which allows the Canvas administrators to arrange with their Customer Success Manager‌ to increase the calendar limit.  We have it at Penn, set to a maximum of 15 calendars, and it has been working well.

 @tb2386 ‌, if you can ask for this through Columbia's Canvas support, feel free to mention my name and the "CSM calendar limit increase" feature option. I believe some of the folks at Columbia Business School are aware of this little-known feature option.

 @RobDitto ‌, how crazy! I had no idea this existed! Could you add it to this discussion - "Hidden" Feature Options?

Done. Thanks for the suggestion!

Thanks to everyone who has participated in this now very old conversation. Admins can now contact their CSMs to request an increase to the 10-calendar default as described in  What is the Calendar?.
