If the GravityCalendar tab is missing from Gravity Forms form settings, or the calendar creation screen shows a blank page, this is usually caused by missing capabilities on your WordPress role.

**What you might see:**

- The "Calendar Feeds" tab doesn't appear in Gravity Forms form settings
- Clicking "Create a Calendar" from GravityKit → All Calendars shows a blank/white screen
- The calendar settings were working before but suddenly disappeared

### How to fix it

Grant the GravityCalendar capabilities to your role using a role editor plugin like [Members](https://wordpress.org/plugins/members/).

- Go to **Members → Roles**
- Click on your role (e.g., Administrator)
- Click **"GF Add-Ons"** in the sidebar
- Check **"GravityCalendar: Form Settings"**
- Click **Update**
- Log out and back in

### GravityCalendar Capabilities

| **Capability** | **Members Plugin Label** | **Controls** |
|---|---|---|
| `gravityview_calendar` | GravityCalendar: Form Settings | Calendar tab in form settings, create/edit calendars |
| `gravityview_calendar_uninstall` | GravityCalendar: Uninstall | Uninstall GravityCalendar |

### Why this happens

GravityCalendar uses custom capabilities to control access. These can get removed if:

- A role editor plugin modifies your role without preserving GravityCalendar capabilities
- A custom role was created without the necessary capabilities
- The site was migrated from a backup that predates GravityCalendar

If you've added the capabilities and still can't access Calendar settings, [contact support](https://www.gravitykit.com/support/).
