Our team uses sharepoint calendars pretty heavily, and there are typically 4 or more items per day that folks need to see on the calendar. This means one of two things:

  1. Everyone has to hit "expand all" every single time they view the calendar OR
  2. Folks see the default view and miss an important meeting

I've been wracking my brain trying to figure out a solution, and have dug extensively through the sharepoint menus and poked through sharepont designer and can't seem to find a solution to this.

Hopefully you fine folks will know an answer.

Thanks,

Luke



Re: SharePoint - Development and Programming Is there a way to have "expand all" on by default in Sharepoint Calendar?

You could write a simple web-part that displays the next, 5 days of meetings, or something like this, calendar items are just list items. There might be some limits as to what you can show, say one webpart, for each calendar, or you could rollup all of the calendars into one big list. I am not sure on your development level or if you even thought about going this route, but hope it helped.

maybe this link help you:

http://www.eggheadcafe.com/software/aspnet/30653991/calendar--expand-all-and.aspx

or you can change :

<Sharepoint:MonthlyCalendarView runat="server"

SelectedDate='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container,"SelectedDate","") %>'

ExpandedWeeks='<%# SPHttpUtility.HtmlEncode( DataBinder.Eval(Container,"ExpandedWeeks","")) %>'

ItemTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemTemplate"

ItemAllDayTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemAllDayTemplate"

ItemMultiDayTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemMultiDayTemplate"

TabIndex=2>

</Sharepoint:MonthlyCalendarView>

to :

<Sharepoint:MonthlyCalendarView runat="server"

SelectedDate='<%# DataBinder.Eval(Container,"SelectedDate","") %>'

ExpandedWeeks='1111111'

ItemTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemTemplate"

ItemAllDayTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemAllDayTemplate"

ItemMultiDayTemplateName="CalendarViewMonthItemMultiDayTemplate"

TabIndex=2>

</Sharepoint:MonthlyCalendarView>
