Finalsite’s New Calendars module allows school admins to create calendars and events that can be displayed on their websites, dynamically flowing into newsletters through the Messages module, and on mobile apps for your community.
Ready to get started with New Calendars?
We're excited to share our updated plan and timeline for transitioning to the New Calendars module. Thank you for your patience and support as we work to make this migration smooth. Although our original timeline has shifted, we're confident this revised plan will ensure a successful rollout.
- Now – June 2025: Seeking 100 clients for early migration. Due to the large volume of requests received, the form has been disabled. If you are selected, expect us to reach out before the end of June with next steps.
- July 2025 - December 2025: Clients not selected for early migration can initiate their own fully automated migration. We'll reach out with more details.
- January 2026: All clients can initiate their automated migration.
- July 1, 2026: End of Life for Calendar Manager. Remaining clients will be migrated.
Learn more about New Calendars:
Calendars module can be found in the module menu in the left navigation bar in Composer.
This is where events can be added to display on your site. You might have a feature on your homepage, for instance, that shows upcoming events in a slideshow. A campus calendar page could have a traditional ‘grid’-format calendar, with events displayed on each day. A “News” page could show a list of upcoming events with details opening on a pop-up. All of these scenarios (and others!) can be achieved by inserting a Calendar Element onto a Composer page.

Create calendars and add events
Events can be easily added into Calendars module. Plus, events that are saved in Calendars can be shared from other calendar systems. Pull events from another system (such as Google Calendars) into Calendars, and display them on your site as if they’d been created in Calendars.
