Multi-day View

The classic Sesami calendar experience with a multi-day horizontal scrolling layout.

What is Multi-day View?

The Multi-day View (also called "Sesami Classic Calendar" or "Weekly View") is Sesami's default calendar interface. It displays multiple days in a horizontal scrolling format, making it easy for customers to browse near-term availability.

Troubleshooting

Calendar not appearing on product page

Check:

• Product has duration variants (e.g., "30 Minutes", "1 Hour")

• Service is configured in Sesami with resources assigned

• Sesami app embed is enabled in Theme Settings

• You're viewing the published theme (not a draft)

See: Quickstart Troubleshooting

No time slots showing

Most common issue! Check:

• Resources are assigned to the service

• Availability is set for assigned resources

• Timezone is correct in Sesami Settings

• No block-offs covering all dates

See: Availability

Need to customize the calendar appearance

For basic styling, you can use custom CSS in your theme.

For more advanced customization:

• Use the Month/Day View which has more customization options

• Build a custom calendar with the Sesami SDK
