Re: [CalendarServer-users] Changing/disabling default calendars
Greg, You can just re-name these collections in your CalDAV client(s). Alternately, you can create a new calendar called whatever you like, and then delete the default 'calendars' or 'tasks' collection. The reason they come back immediately is that it is invalid to have a calendar home with no default collection in it for the supported component types (VEVENT and VTODO). If you first create a new collection called whatever you like, then delete the original collection, it should stay gone (until you delete the last calendar or task collection, at which point it will come back). -glyph On Jul 2, 2012, at 2:17 PM, Greg Day <gregday@airwaterunix.org> wrote:

What I am talking about is that when I start the server, on my Calendaring clients I have a default calendar named "calendar" and in Reminder/ToDo clients I have a default list called "tasks" Deleting these causes them to come back within a few seconds. I just happen to not want to use a calendar or task list with those names. Maybe there is a far simpler (configuration) way to change them.

There's no config option right now; the strings "calendar" and "tasks" are hard-coded in a few places. If you were to add an option though, changing these names isn't really interesting; the only place you'll see them is in URLs, which CalDAV clients shouldn't even really be displaying to you.
If you did want an option you'd probably want an option for a default on the display-name DAV property, which is what agents should present to the user to say what the calendar's called. Really, you shouldn't even want to do that, as user agents should just give the user a nice, localized name appropriate to their locale for their default calendar upon noticing it doesn't have a display-name property.
Any particular reason you want to do this? Maybe there's a better answer that's more specific to your use-case.

That is not what happens though. I do have 3 other lists and 1 other calendar with several events and todos on them, and when I delete "calendar" or "tasks" they each come back within a few seconds. I feel stupid for not having thought of renaming it though. That seems to be working. Thank you. On 7/3/2012 2:53 AM, Glyph wrote:
