Event rendering cannot be cancelled from eventContent

Reported in https://fullcalendar.freshdesk.com/a/tickets/1936

The v5 migration doc mentions a replacement for returning false from eventRender is to “attach a display:‘none’ property on the Event Input” from eventContent but that seems to have no effect.

apologies, that won’t work either because an array event source is not considered ‘refetchable’ because it’s a static source.

Move our filtering logic “up a level” to an events function will work. Please see what I did here: https://codepen.io/arshaw/pen/KKVmVKa?editors=0010

Does that work for you?

I’ll clear up the docs. What I meant from the docs is that if you already have a display property on your event object set to 'none', before eventContent is called, then it won’t display.

When eventContent is executing, it’s already too late.

You’ll need to do it imperatively at the time the user indicates what they wan’t filtered out. Here’s an example:

event.setProp('display', 'none')
