Calendar Events - Synced vs Manually added
It would greatly improve user experience if events synchronized from external calendars were secured to prevent editing within the website calendar. Editing such events on the website can lead to inconsistencies and issues, and ideally, they should be managed centrally within their respective external calendars.
Additionally, it would be useful if synchronised events were clearly distinguished from manually added ones in the calendar. For instance, when logged into the website synced events could be marked with a padlock icon when viewed on the website calendar, so that users are able to identify how certain events have been added.
This would also streamline support processes, as currently only users with database access can identify whether events are created manually or synchronised from an external calendar. This information is sometimes necessary when identifying the root cause of an issue.
