Vivaldi’s webmail service contains a full fledged solution to display your events and synchronize your calendar.

To view your Vivaldi calendar:

  1. Log in to your Vivaldi account on webmail.vivaldi.net;
  2. On the left side of the window, click Calendar on the menu.

When you log in with an existing account for the first time since CalDAV support was implemented, it will ask you to import your calendars to CalDAV so you can synchronize them with your phone and other calendar clients. Click Import to view your existing events and make them available for syncing.

In case you clicked Don’t Import, but have changed your mind and want to import the events:

  1. Go to Settings > Preferences > Calendar > Import events from older calendar;
  2. Disable the option Don’t ask me again if I want to import old calendar data;
  3. Click Save.
  4. Go back to Calendar, where you’ll be asked whether you want to import events.
  5. Click Import.

Create a new event

To create a new event:

  1. Click on Create on the menu above the calendar or click anywhere in the calendar;
  2. In the event editor, add a summary (i.e. a title) and a start and end time. Additionally, you can add a description, reminders, participants, attachments and much more.

Save emails as calendar events

Emails can be saved to the calendar as events from More > Save as event.
Save as event menu option

Events shared with you via email can be saved to your Calendar by clicking on the small downward arrow next to the attached event file and selecting Save to Calendar.

  3. Click Save.

Delete events

To delete an event:

  1. Click on the event and then on Delete in the modal window;
  2. Confirm your decision by clicking OK.
    If you’re deleting a recurring event, select whether you want to delete just the current event, only upcoming events or all events.

Sync your calendars using CalDAV

To add one or all of your calendars to a calendar client or app:

  1. Select the calendar;
  2. Click on the 3 dot menu  menu button above the list of calendars and select Show calendar URL;
  3. Copy the second URL to your calendar client.
    It looks like the link below:
    https://calendar.vivaldi.net/calendars/[email protected]/CALENDAR-NAME/;
    Some calendar clients allow you to synchronize all your calendars in one go using the following link:
    https://calendar.vivaldi.net/calendars/;
  4. Add your username (make sure to include @vivaldi.net at the end), login password and other information that the client requires.

Do this for every calendar you want to sync.

Important

Some clients’ settings are case sensitive. If your username includes uppercase letters and calendar sync doesn’t work, try writing your username identically or only with lowercase letters anywhere it’s mentioned.


Calendar Settings

You can customize the calendar in Settings > Preferences > Calendar. There you can change settings like:

  • Default view (day/week/month/agenda),
  • First weekday,
  • Event colouring,
  • Reminder settings,
  • Categories,
  • and more.

Don’t forget to save any changes you make.
