Hi, I’m creating a new topic for this question because I could not find the answer for this anywhere.
Is there a way of showing the location (maybe attendees as well) for calendar events?
I know the “atomic-calendar-revive” card from HACS can show this information, but I think it’s ugly and not customizable enough. I think the normal calendar card is pretty and functional if I could just click on an event and see WHERE it is happening.
Until now I barely used the calendar integration since it existed in HA. That changed today, when I configured the Web Untis integration for my son’s school timetable.
And guess what: I noticed right away, that the event popup is showing every attribute of an event, except the location. It feels, as if this has simply been forgotton, as I can’t think of a reason, why someone explicitly wouldn’t want to see the location for a calendar event, when it is availabe.
Unfortunatly I don’t have a quick solution, but wanted to reply anyways, so you know, you are at least not alone.
I wish I had a solution to this. It looks like the entity attribute Location is being retrieved from the google server, but isn’t being displayed on the standard Calendar tile.
I don’t know enough about how the tiles draw down their data to be able to set about fixing this (I know just enough about HA to be dangerous). I’m tempted to open an issue on the GitHub core but I’m worried it might be thought rather a distraction.
i had noticed this too… the attribute shows in the entity list but you cannot change it via the calendar… and i was going to use that for sporting event calendars myself… i supposed there could be a plethora of usages but it would be nice if they’re going to have it as a listed attribute be something editable via the calendar event itself
Hi, I’ve been looking at this too. I have the feeling the Local Calendar is only there for automation purposes. Not for regular use, like you propose.
This feeling is based also on the following. I managed to use the CalDav integration, but calendar information is only synced towards the Home Assistant Calendar. And indeed in the Home Assistant Calendar it is only possible to create items for the local calendar (not for the synced remote calendar).
It feels, as if this has simply been forgotton, as I can’t think of a reason, why someone explicitly wouldn’t want to see the location for a calendar event, when it is availabe.
