A FullCalendar extension that adds support for multiple columns (/resources) per day. Tested with FullCalendar v2.3.1 but not compatible with FullCalendar >= 2.5. It is recommended that for these higher versions you use the "vertical resource view" of the official Scheduler plugin.

http://jsfiddle.net/jkmda709/25/

Include after fullcalendar.js:

<script type="text/javascript" src="fullcalendar.js">
<script type="text/javascript" src="fullcalendar-columns.js">

In your FullCalendar options dictionary, define a view of type multiColAgenda. Set numColumns to the number of columns you want displayed. You can optionally specify the columnHeaders parameter if you want a label to be displayed at the top of each column:

$("#calendar").fullCalendar({
    views: {
        multiColAgendaDay: {
            type: 'multiColAgenda',
            duration: { days: 1 },
            numColumns: 2,
            columnHeaders: ['First column', 'Second column']
        }
    },
    defaultView: 'multiColAgendaDay'
});

From then on, each FullCalendar Event Object can have a column attribute, which specifies which column of a day the event belongs to. For example, using FullCalendar's events option:

events: [{
    title: 'Some event',
    start: moment(), // now
    end: moment().add(1, 'hour'), // in 1 hour
    column: 1
}]

This defines an event in the second column of the current day.

Unlike other similar solutions, this is not a fork of FullCalendar. This has the advantage that you can use it with newer versions of FullCalendar, and do not have to depend on a probably unmaintained clone.

The implementation works by tricking FullCalendar into displaying columns as separate days. For example: A Friday with two columns is rendered behind the scenes by asking FullCalendar to draw two days, Friday and the coming Monday, where Monday corresponds to Friday's second column. Care is taken to make this trick transparent to the user (you), but in some cases this is not 100% possible. For example, some View Object properties such as end do not contain the "correct" value.

This repository captures the state of code which I use in production and currently does not include features which I do not need. However, I am open to feature or pull requests.
