Your calendar is at Calendar in the sidebar, headed My Events. It holds everything that makes you unavailable — confirmed bookings and time you've blocked out yourself.
Two kinds of block
| Type | Colour | Comes from | Can you edit it? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Event | Purple | A confirmed DJfindr booking | No |
| Busy | Amber | You, or a synced outside calendar | Yes |
Event blocks are created automatically when a booking is confirmed and removed if it's dropped or canceled. You can't edit or delete one directly — the booking controls it.
Busy blocks are yours. See Creating a Busy Block.
Views
Use the view dropdown to switch between Day, Week, Month, and Year. Month is the useful default for spotting free weekends; Day is worth switching to when you have two bookings in one day and need to see the gap between them.
Filtering
Above the calendar:
- Search events — find a booking by name
- Type — filter by occasion
- Status — filter by booking status
Opening a block
Select any block to see its Date & Time, Duration, Your Local Time with the timezone, Location, and the client or DJ involved. It also shows where it came from — Created via Google Calendar on 4 March, for example.
For an event block, View Event takes you to the booking. For a busy block, you can delete it from here.
Timezones
Blocks show both the event's local time and yours. This matters more than it sounds — a client booking you in another timezone sets the time in theirs, and the calendar shows you both so you don't turn up three hours out.
How this affects bookings
When a client picks a date on your profile, we check it against your calendar. If you're blocked, they see a warning that you're unavailable. Everything on this calendar — event blocks, your own busy blocks, and anything synced in from outside — counts. See How Your Availability Affects Incoming Requests.
