dayGridMonth not respecting event color

See original GitHub issue

Reduced Test Case

Bug Description

My JSON data includes the backgroundColor property on an event-by-event basis. On the timeGridWeek and timeGridDay views the background color is respected for the event. However on dayGridMonth the default FullCalendar background color is used.

@acerix I didn’t create this Issue but I’m seeing the same behavior and this shouldn’t be closed

Here’s a codepen as asked for, my json feed’s backgroundColor and borderColor do not seem to be respected on calendar

By default, timed-events are displayed as a dot so they don’t have a background color in the day grid view, you can set eventDisplay: 'block' to change that:

Hi @acerix,

I am seeing the same issue and would appreciate if you please could re-open this bug.

I think any dayGrid based view has this issues. Our other views are working fine and seem to respect the event colours on a per event basis.
