Tell us what you are trying to do?

I need to create a calendar view based on an created custom post type in combination with custom fields. The custom field includes the value for the date.

Similar to this view: hidden link

Do you have experience or any idea what extensions to use to accomplish this task?

Hello,

I assume we are talking about this demo:
hidden link

If it is, there isn't such exact feature within Toolset plugins, within Toolset side, you can
- setup a custom post type
- create a custom date field, register it to the custom post type
- create a post view, query posts of custom post type, and order/filter by the custom date field.

But no such an option to display the result as a calendar.

I have seen other users using some other similar calendar plugins, for example:
https://wordpress.org/plugins/search/calendar/

For your reference.
