    Hi

    We’re working on a customer’s site, where we need to show a public calendar (for the customers own events) and a private one (for the customer’s customer’s event ;-)).

    All would work like a charm so far, except the event details of the private calendar are fully visible on the site.

    We tried with different scenarios in the Google Workspace calendar settings ant the plugin config, but the only thing we could achieve was «showing no event» (private: off) or «showing everything».

    Since it’s about the booking availability only, we should only see, that the venue is booked, but not, what the booking is about.

    (How) can we achieve this?

    thank you so much.

    Hi,

    You can enable or disable the event details popup for each calendar. Isn’t that what you are looking for? In that case you only see the event but you won’t see the popup with details when you click on it.

    Hello Michiel

    Thank you very much for your quick reply.

    You mean in Google calendar setting the event to “private”? Or are there any settings in the component that we are overlooking?

    We have made 3 Screenshots (See link). There you will see our settings:

    1. We set the event in Google Calendar to private
    2. The event details are nevertheless showing on the frontend
    3. In the component we activated “show private events”. If we disable this checkbox the event is not showing at all

    Do you have any further hints for us?

    Thanks a lot and best regards.

    Hi Miryam,

    In the first screenshot I can see the popup that appears after clicking on an event. This popup can be disabled so that no event details are displayed at all. It seems that this is what you are looking for.

    See for more details:

    Hello Michiel

    Thanks a lot for the link to the Plugin-Blog.

    Ok we could try to hide the pop-up but the title of the event will be still shown – correct? If it so, the customers team that works with the calendar can not set the title, for example “Wedding of Mr. + Mrs. X” but needs to find a workaround for the title – this unfortunately is not really practicable because the Names of Persons or Companies should not appear in the frontend.

    In Google calendar we have the additional option to say that an event is completely private and the persons that have access to this calendar will only see that at this time this person is occupied. He will not see any details and also not the title even if the calendar is shared.

    Is this option not applied also to your Plugin? We tried to make the event completely private, but is still shown in the frontend.

    Sorry for bothering you again with this, but I hope that we will find a good solution. 😉

    Thanks again and regards.

    Hi Michiel

    Did you had a chance to have a look at our Calendar Problem?

    Would be great if we could solve this because we need to go Live soon with our page.

    Hi,

    So if I’m correct you want to be able to set some predefined text, for example “Occupied”, that will then be displayed for all private events instead of the real titel that has been set in Google Calendar?

    Hello,

    Yes exactly like this. 1:1 the same behavior we have in Google Calendar if an Event is set as “private”.

    Happy reading from you soon.

    Okay,

    This looks like a useful addition to the plugin. I’l look into this when I have time. Hopefully this weekend but I cannot promise anything.

    Hi,
    A new version has been released (20220910) where you can set the “Private events title” in the settings section of this plugin. This will display this title for all private events.
    Hopefully this will solve your issue.
