All day events option - Sharepoint online
Hi all, Is there a way to enable an "All Day" option in a modern SharePoint calendar? If not, is it possible to create this option manually or use an alternative method, rather than setting the ...
The "All Day" option depends on how you're creating and displaying your calendar events in SharePoint Online.
If you're using the Events web part: The modern Events web part does include an "All Day" toggle when creating events. When you click "Add event," you'll see this option right below the start/end time fields.
If you're using a SharePoint list with Calendar view: Unfortunately, the Calendar view for SharePoint lists doesn't have a built-in "All Day" option. However, here are workarounds:
- Time-based approach: Set your event from 12:00 AM to 11:59 PM (though I understand this isn't ideal)
- Custom solution: Create a Yes/No column called "All Day Event" and use conditional formatting or Power Automate to handle the display logic
My recommendation: For modern SharePoint sites, I'd suggest using the Events web part instead of the Calendar view.
Can the event web part be used as a calendar view on a modern sharepoint site?
