Connecting to CalDAV only show one calendar #42
Description
Before submitting
- I've searched existing issues and this isn't a duplicate.
- This is a reproducible bug in Calnode — not a configuration/setup question or a feature request.
What's the bug?
I'm using Calendar app with Synology. When I connect to it through Calnode it only show the "primary" calendar and none of the others. Also the Check/Book inputs are confusing and the "book" can't be unchecked.
With any other app using the exact same login it does show me all the calendars I have in my account.
I should be able to choose which calendar to use.
Steps to reproduce
Calendar -> Connect a calendar -> CalDAV (Apple iCloud, Fastmail, Nextcloud)
Provider: Nextcloud / other (cusom URL)
Server URL: https://caldav.example.com
User: X

Calnode version / commit

caldav: pin calendar listing to the connected calendar's origin
shockalotti commentedon Sep 17, 2026
All three parts of this are real bugs, and all three are fixed on branch
fix/mcp-bearer-archived:1. Only one calendar shown. Discovery walked your collections and kept just the first VEVENT one; the picker then reported only that. Now discovery returns every VEVENT collection (tasks/reminders-style ones still filtered out), seeds them with their server-side names, and the picker lists them all. The previously-picked calendar stays the bound default, so existing setups don't change behaviour.
2. Checking never worked beyond the first calendar. Even deeper: conflict checks only ever queried the one bound collection, so ticking another calendar would have silently done nothing. Free/busy now REPORTs every selected collection and unions the results.
3. Book can't be unchecked + confusing labels. The destination control was a radio with no empty state, and the backend already accepted a cleared destination - the UI just couldn't express it. It's now a toggle (select again to clear; writes fall back to the bound calendar), and the headers read Check / Destination with an explainer.
Two honest caveats: existing connections list only the previously-bound calendar until reconnected (the re-list needs the calendar-home URL, which is stored from now on), and I verified against a fake server plus the full test suite - not a real Synology box. If you reconnect your account and open Manage calendars, I'd love to hear whether all your collections show up.
fix(caldav): discover and check every calendar, not just the first (#42)

Thanks @shockalotti
I just tested your changes and it does work perfectly !
I've checked the calendar destination then created new bookings and it does show up well on the right agenda.

Fixed on main via #57 (commit c22fcc2 - CalDAV now discovers and checks every calendar, not just the first). Reopen if you still see it.
