Set a custom start date for your calendar

Teamup's default start date, or date which the calendar automatically shows when opened, is the current date. When people are managing a schedule for the current day or week, or making plans for the near future, it's the appropriate choice. 

In some scenarios, it might work better to open the calendar at a different start date than the current day: 

• A conference calendar can open on the first day of the conference so viewers instantly see the relevant agenda and timeline. 
• A booking calendar can open on the next available booking date range (e.g. 7 days in the future) to prevent confusion and discourage out-of-range bookings.
• A project calendar can open on the project kickoff, first day of current phase, or date of the last achieved milestone to provide a project-level overview and keep the focus on the relevant timeline.
• A special events calendar can open on the date of the last big event or on a date with many events to show viewers a good example of the events being shared. 

The calendar administrator can change the default start date in Settings > Date & Time.

1. Open Teamup in a calendar. 
2. Go to Settings > Date & Time. 
3. Scroll to the Start Date section. 
4. Set the start date as desired from the menu options.

If your calendar is embedded into a website, it's also possible to specify a link parameter to set the start date as you wish. See this article for more details.
