Okay. Now do you have a wee bit more information so we can understand your issue. A web site url where we can see the failure would be a great starting point.
sorry 🙂

Looking at your site it does not appear that the plugin is activated. Looking at resources loaded wp-content/plugins does not show the ibs-calendar resource as being loaded.
That is the reason the widget shortcode is not being resolved and is display as text.
it is activated. the only options on the plugin page are deactivate and edit. therefore it is activated
i think i will delete and reinstall. will that help?
Possibly. I am concerned that, for whatever reason, the plugin code is not getting loaded into WordPress. That I have no control over and am at a lost on how to proceed to fix the issue.
i did that and it still doesnt work. i deleted all files and downloaded and am now uploading a new copy. but i am seeing errors go by as the files are uploading. they seem to be looking for the ibs-calendar directory, but the files are ibs-calendar.1.1
I just deactivated and deleted the plugin and reinstalled all through the WordPress admin and it all is working.
i got it to work as a widget but not as a shortcode in a text box like it worked yesterday. As a widget the calendar is too wide for the sidebar. any suggestions?

Go here
And add;
.widget_ibs_calendar{width:90%}
I can not test this out as I don’t use WordPress.com.
I will see about adding the width as an option to the widget code.
I dont use wordpress.com either. this is self hosted. What is the file I edit?
You are using Jetpack which tosses in;
<style id=”custom-css-css”>/*
Welcome to Custom CSS!
To learn how this works, see http://wp.me/PEmnE-Bt
*/</style>
Which is where I got the link.
To activate that for a hosted site see http://jetpack.me/support/custom-css/
Using the jetpack custom css utility
add the following;
#ibs_wcalendar-3{
width:90%
}
90% is an overkill so you might want to try some greater values.
If you add or delete widgets the id could change and you’ll need to adjust.
Closing as resolved. Will consider adding a width or somehow adjusting the widget position in the sidebar on next release cycle.
