A calendar may be included in a course or the site Front page by adding a Calendar block or an Upcoming Events block.

Preference settings

Both the daily detail screen and the monthly detail screen have the Preferences button in the upper right. Here you can set the time format, first day of the week, number of events to show in the calendar block, days to look forward for events and if the filters on this calendar should be saved as the default for all calendars.

The following settings can be changed by a site administrator in Administration > Appearance > Calendar
