Include drop down menus when using Calendar View

The old version of campaign calendar allowed you to enter month and date you were searching. New version requires you to click the back arrow. To search for campaigns in 2015 I must click 48 times. Not much fun!!! Please return the ability to enter the month and date you are searching for.

Hi @DaveR7 thank you for sharing your feedback with us on this calendar view experience! Where on the page would you expect to see a date search like this? Would you want this option to be a drop-down menu to select the month/year or a space you can type in the date?

Hi Frankie,

With the previous version you just clicked on the month or year to enter the time period you were looking for. I believe it was a drop down when clicking the year. Cant say for sure on the month drop down.
I quite often search the same month between 2 and 4 years back. It was easy to jump between multiple years with the previous version.

The updated calendar view for searching past campaigns is very good. However, the ability to search the calendar by year appears to be missing. This is an important function. Was is discontinued? We would love to see it reinstated or made more clearly accessible. It was easily done in the previous version. Please bring it back. Thank you!

Hi @AwakenedHeart are you looking to view your campaign calendar by year or to select a specific month and year?

Here is an update to the problem of going back in time on the new and improved calendar. I have discovered that when you click the year drop down menu if you only see a couple of years and not a full range, reduce your screen size using the zoom control until the full year options appear. I have to reduce my screen to around 65% before I can select a year other 2022 and higher. Took some messing around with CC support to figures this one out. Hope the engineers get this annoying glitch corrected soon.

The Calendar View now shows dropdown menus to easily navigate between dates.
