Event Presets

Save reusable event templates with pre-filled values for quick event creation.

Creating Presets​

  1. Open the Create or Edit Event modal
  2. Fill in the fields you want to save (title, dates, categories, location, participants, recurring settings, custom properties)
  3. Click Save as preset
  4. Enter a name for the preset (e.g., "Weekly Team Meeting")
  5. Choose to create a new preset or override an existing one

Using Presets​

  • Apply: Select a preset from the dropdown in the modal header to populate all fields instantly
  • Clear: Click the clear button to reset all fields to an empty state
  • Default preset: Configure a default preset in Settings → General → Event Presets that auto-applies when creating new events

What Presets Save​

FieldSavedNotes
Title✅Pre-fill event name
All-day✅Timed vs all-day mode
Date/Start/End✅Date and time values
Categories✅Category assignment
Location✅Event location (single string)
Icon✅Event icon override (emoji or text)
Participants✅Event participants (comma-separated)

Default Preset​

Set a default preset to auto-fill fields every time you create a new event:

  1. Go to Settings → General → Event Presets
  2. Select a preset from the Default preset dropdown
  3. New events will now open with the selected preset's values pre-filled

To stop auto-filling, set the default preset back to "None".

Managing Presets​

  • Override: When saving a preset with the same name as an existing one, you can choose to override it with the new values
  • Per-calendar: Presets are stored per calendar, so each calendar can have its own set of templates
