Nov 17 temporary (easy) embed display fix

Here’s a fix for your display while we move the plugin to using the new API later this week.

These are instructions on how to embed GCal displays on your sites. Though it’s from wordpress.com, I’ve tested and it will work on self-hosted WP sites as well.

http://en.support.wordpress.com/google-calendar/

Two more things…

1) We’ll push an interim update here soon so your existing GCal Events error display will be hidden until we fix them.

2) If you’d like to use shortcodes with the temporary embeddable option described, we suggest using the Post Snippets plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-snippets/).

Thank you.

Is there anyway to glean the embed code from the current feed code I’ve got in place? I have displays of over 20 calendars that aren’t mine/no access from within google.

Hey Lazykins, if your feed was;
https://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/YOURNAME%40gmail.com/public/basic

to get an iframe change it to;
<iframe src=”https://www.google.com/calendar/embed?showTitle=0&showPrint=0&showTabs=0&showCalendars=0&showTz=0&mode=AGENDA&height=600&wkst=1&bgcolor=%23FFFFFF&src=YOURNAME%40gmail.com&color=%23711616&ctz=America%2FNew_York” style=” border-width:0 ” width=”800″ height=”600″ frameborder=”0″ scrolling=”no”>

Created a new blank calendar in Google Calendar, went to its Settings,
Clicked on “Customize the color, size, and other options” and included all my feeds at that level. Embedded that one compilation calendar with an explanation of the issue. It will work for now! Thank you for your fine plug-in work.

You all using the Text tab (not Visual tab) in the post editor when pasting the embed code from Google?
