The new communities feature needs an in-game scheduler and MOTD.

I think its pretty good as is but I do wish it came packaged with an in-game scheduler to organize events. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a method to leave a message of the day or of the week either. The social tab on the battle.net launcher has an MOTD feature, but that's a non-starter since you have to go outside the game to use it, which people just won't do.

However, I'm sure someone will develop an addon to handle the issues.

Look I will be honest... this feature was in the game since launch with custom channels it just wasn't a part of the launcher. Very few people are going to use this they just needs a bullet point for the box.

Pretty sure Communities have MOTD (called Broadcast in blizzard terms).

function CommunitiesChatMixin:AddBroadcastMessage(clubId)
	local clubInfo = C_Club.GetClubInfo(clubId);
	if clubInfo and clubInfo.broadcast ~= "" then
		if self.broadcastSent[clubId] == clubInfo.broadcast then
			return;
		end
		
		self.MessageFrame:AddMessage(" ");
		self.MessageFrame:AddMessage(COMMUNITIES_MESSAGE_OF_THE_DAY_FORMAT:format(clubInfo.broadcast), YELLOW_FONT_COLOR:GetRGB());
		self.broadcastSent[clubId] = clubInfo.broadcast;
	end
end

And in game calendar has been a thing for a years, which should work with communities.

That's exactly what they've done though? See links below.

Good! I relied on Bellular's review of the communities feature and he never mentioned this stuff and made it sound very bare bones.

Oh its gonna get used because its cross realm. Custom channels aren't cross realm. I'm gonna use it a LOT.
