Show events in calendar view

The calendar view is great but it would be more valuable if it were used for the event campaigns by date. Currently the list of events lists them in order of the dates they were created, not the date they actually are scheduled to take place. This makes it very difficult to locate a specific even as it approaches. Will Constant Contact figure out a way to allow us to view them in the order they will occur?

 

Would save so much time and frustration.

What is the status of this request? If we can't view our events on Constant Contact calendar. Would you be able to recommend another calendar viewing tool that integrates with Constant Contact?

What is Constant Contact's recommended solution to view all Constant Contact campaign events on a calendar?

Campaign Calendar View only shows emails and holidays. Can I have it show the actual events as well (scheduled and completed)?

When scheduling event emails, it would be ideal to see other scheduled email campaigns and event emails already scheduled so not send email at the same time/day as another email. Furthermore, we need access to a list or calendar showing all scheduled email campaigns including event emails.

To space out email campaigns (as not to flood contacts' inboxes), it would be helpful to include scheduled campaigns and event emails on the Calendar.

Hi @PeterT4965

 

Thanks for sharing this feedback with us! The good news is scheduled email campaigns do show on the campaign Calendar View. On the other hand, event campaigns showing on this page is a feature request we are collecting feedback on. We have merged your post into a larger thread focused on this request.

It would be easier for me if I could just have the calendar appear and then be able to add events without creating campaigns. The campaigns ask for too much unnecessary information. I just need to add event titles and times and then be able to print or send in an email.

Let's improve the calendar by including the scheduled event emails as well.
