How could I modify the fullcalendar plugin so that this saves the different click methods dayClick etc in a cookie? The next time this calendar is opened if would default to the user preference.

Already using the cookie plugin: .cookie.js

Update of working cookie code following answer:

var calendarView = (!$.cookie('calendarDefaultView')) ? 'month' : $.cookie('calendarDefaultView');  
$calendar.fullCalendar({
    defaultView: calendarView,
    viewDisplay: function(view){
        $.cookie('calendarDefaultView', view.name, {expires:7, path: '/'});
    },

• javascript

• In version 2 I had to change viewDisplay to viewRender for this to work. ie. viewRender: function( view , element) { .... – PhoebeB Commented Nov 24, 2015 at 9:46

The two fullcalendar methods you need are:

//pull viewName from the cookie or set as default
var viewName='month'; //or basicWeek, basicDay, agendaWeek, agendaDay
$("#fullcalendar").fullCalendar( 'changeView', viewName );

and

$('#fullcalendar').fullCalendar({
        viewDisplay: function( view )
        {
           //save your cookie here, it's triggered each time the view changes
        }
});

This should put you on the right path. I didn't look at saving the cookie b/c I think you have that under control.
