Best way to list upcoming events on homepage?

Right now, the widget we’re using doesn’t appear to have a limit on the number of events it displays, which causes the list to become overwhelmingly long. We’re interested in exploring alternative widgets that might present upcoming events in a more organized, user‑friendly way.

 

If you have recommendations for widgets that work well for event communication - especially those that include a calendar-style layout - we’d really appreciate your insight! Thanks! :-]

You can try

Build a custom Service Portal widget using FullCalendar.js (open source) backed by cmn_schedule / cmn_schedule_span (or a custom event table). It gives you a month/week/day calendar grid with built-in view toggles, eliminates the "endless list" problem since the grid itself bounds what's shown, and supports click-to-detail modals. For the lightest touch, pair it with a small "Next 5 upcoming" list beside the calendar so users get both at-a-glance scanning and immediate next-up visibility.

Thanks for the suggestion! Do you know if there are any out of the box solutions like this instead of customized widgets?
