Request for Bulk Deletion/Management of "Imported" Events in Proton Calendar
I recently imported a calendar file from WebCal.Guru, which added a large number of entries (approximately a year’s worth) to my Proton Calendar. After realizing that I no longer need these entries, I tried to delete or move them in bulk but encountered the following issues:
- Identifying the Events:
- I can search for these events using a common string included in each entry: “This calendar is provided by WebCal.Guru.”
- However, after listing them via search, Proton Calendar does not allow selecting or managing multiple events simultaneously.
- Desired Action:
- I would like to either delete or move all events that match this search term at once, to avoid manually handling each event individually..
- Suggested Solutions:
- Adding a feature to allow multi-select and bulk action (delete/move) for events would be incredibly helpful, especially for handling imported or recurring events.
- Capture the event of appending a calendar file to an existing calendar, and allow the option, at a future date, to remove those imported events.
This would greatly improve the user experience and save significant time when managing calendar data. Thank you for considering this request, and I appreciate your work in making Proton Calendar a privacy-focused and user-friendly platform.

That's a great suggestion for improving event management! Having the ability to delete multiple events at once would definitely be a useful enhancement. By the way, if you’re into discovering new apps, you might like this one:

I need this too! This should be a standard function: First search (search string) within all events in 1 or more calendars and then be able to delete the result.
E.g.: I just imported an ics file in the wrong calendar and had to delete 150 events. And I needed 3 clicks per event to delete! Really ...????

Give the ability to delete more than one event at a time.
This does overlap with the existing request [Bulk editing of events to new/existing calendars](https://protonmail.uservoice.com/forums/932842-proton-calendar/suggestions/46701688-bulk-editing-of-events-to-new-existing-calendars), but I'm creating it as a new request as a more specific, simplified request that would be a big quality-of-use improvement from my perspective.
