Error with Calendar overlays

Question

I have created a calendar view which is a calendar overlay of Client Review Dates and Policy Valuation Dates.

It works perfectly, however when I then add that calendar into my home page as an app part there is no information on it.

How do I resolve this issue? I made the calendar overlays by following these steps:

Answer 1

Calendar overlays only work from the Calendars themselves not list views (which is what you are adding to your home page). If you want to keep that - then use a link that points to the calendar view where you have configured the overlays.
