The calendar that fits in a sidebar

Mini Calendar pairs a month grid with an upcoming-events list in a compact footprint built for one-third columns, aggregating up to five calendar sources with per-source color coding, without taking over the page.

Sources

Up to five, color-coded

Aggregate up to five calendar or event lists, each in its own color: the compact version of the suite’s multi-source overlay.

Detail

Details on tap

Selecting an event opens its details (date, location, description) without leaving the page.

Recurrence

Shared recurrence engine

Classic SharePoint recurrence is supported through the same engine Full Calendar uses. The standalone edition ships on Microsoft Marketplace.

Tuning

Appearance settings

Highlight colors for today, the selected date and event indicators; list theme; first day of the week: all configurable.

Mini Calendar shows what’s next before anyone clicks

Mini Calendar is built for glance-first event awareness. On initial page load, its Upcoming Events list immediately surfaces forward-looking events from today using the configured lookahead window and event limit. Readers do not have to select a date first to see what is coming up.

Once a reader selects a date, the list switches from the forward-looking view to events for that specific date. Choose Mini Calendar when upcoming events need to stay visible in a sidebar or narrow column; choose Full Calendar when readers need to browse the schedule itself through full-size month, week and agenda views. Both can read the same SharePoint calendar or event sources.

What to know before you choose

Setup and configuration guides live at help.zenpo.com. Common questions before you choose this web part:

Can it show events from more than one list?

Yes. Mini Calendar can combine up to five SharePoint calendar or event sources, each with its own color, into one month grid and one Upcoming Events list.

Does it handle classic SharePoint recurring events?

Yes. Classic SharePoint recurring events are expanded through the same recurrence engine used by Full Calendar.

What does Upcoming Events show when the page first loads?

It shows forward-looking events from today immediately, using the configured lookahead window and event limit. No date selection is required. This is the main difference between Mini Calendar’s glance-first experience and a calendar that waits for the reader to start browsing.

What happens after someone clicks a date?

The list switches to events for the selected date. Clicking today therefore means “show me today’s events,” rather than keeping the broader forward-looking Upcoming Events view.

When should I use Full Calendar instead?

Use Full Calendar when the schedule itself is the destination and readers need full-size month, week and agenda views. Use Mini Calendar when the page needs a compact month grid plus an immediate view of what is coming next. Both can use the same SharePoint event sources.

Does it read Outlook or personal calendars?

No. Mini Calendar reads SharePoint calendar and event sources using the signed-in user’s SharePoint access. It does not require Microsoft Graph or read personal Outlook calendars.
