jquery mobile - How to make FullCalendar work on touch devices?

Question

I was looking for a tablet friendly event calendar, but I did not find any suitable ones. But FullCalendar is one best jQuery calendar plugin that looks great on desktop and a tablet.

This calendar works perfectly on a desktop, but when it comes to tablet I am unable to select the start time and end time of an event, based on the touch and swipe. When i do this the calendar gets scrolled. Is there any solution for this? I have been looking around for a solution in vein.

Have anyone had this issue and did you solve it? Please share the method how you solved it. Any sort of help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Have you tried including the Jquery UI Touch Punch?

By default, Jquery UI doesn't support Touch Events because it wasn't optimized for mobile devices. Touch Punch solved my problems with the Jquery UI Drag&Drop functionalities, which seem to be used by FullCalendar as well.

Hope it helps!
