Hiding certain events in the Calendar
Kia ora, we are setting up a course in Brightspace and want to hide certain events in the calendar (it is getting quite cluttered). However, when using the Manage Dates tool, the option to hide these events in the calendar is greyed out:
Is there a way to fix this? It is worth noting that elsewhere in the Manage Dates tool we are able to hide things in the calendar — notably the dates associated with assignments.
Cheers,
Rhian

Hi Rhian,
Thank you for reaching out to us through the community!
From the screenshot you shared, I noticed that many events with dates have the Start/End dates option in the Calendar checked and greyed out.
To resolve this, please follow these steps:
- On the navbar, click Course Admin.
- Click Manage Dates.
- Select the check box of the items for which you want to bulk edit dates.
- Click Bulk Edit Dates.
- Now in the page, under the option Display in calendar, choose Remove from calendar
Kindly check if these steps solve your issue. You can also refer below community article to understand more on Manage dates tool
Thanks

Thanks you for this response, Sreelakshmi
Unfortunately, although I can follow this workflow, it does not affect the visibility of events in the calendar
Are there any other workflows you can suggest to solve this issue?

I just wanted to chime in on this one as well, and to add support for some kind of fix. Having every item that has release dates applied to them appear automatically in the calendar is extremely unhelpful. And not being able to choose if they do or do not appear is extremely frustrating. especially as it seems like there is a system there to do it. but it's greyed out or not working.
