How to add month and year dropdown to calendar month view I want to add a month and a year dropdown to the month view of calendar so a user can jump to any month from the dropdown and can jump to the year, if selected. (Users can pick month OR year and will get results). I can add an exposed filter that doesn't update the calendar display when I click apply.

Any suggestions of what terms to search for or how to start this. I cannot seem to find tutorials or posts on this other than people saying yeah, I want that but I have no idea how to do it without building a custom calendar or using jquery datepicker.
The Date module has a subproject called Date Views. Once that 
module is enabled, you can add exposed filters to your date fields. Setting the filter option Date selection form element to select will provide the dropdown selection widget for your date. 

Finally, under the Advanced > Exposed form > Exposed form style > Settings link there's an Autosubmit option that will submit the filter form upon date change.
