Calendar function ? Howto ?

**joicol** · 14 October 2017, 08:04 AM

Hi, would it be difficult to implement a calendar function into a xara template ? I guess this could be done by importing some widget, e.g. google calendar ? I tried it quickly but got an error message saying the URL was wrong ..
I also searched in the template catalogue, but no template seems to have a calendar function implemented out of the box? So I guess it should be done by importing some widget ?
I use XWD premium 12

Google calendar is probably the best.

Create your calendar on Google's site then copy the embed iframe code and paste it into a placeholder in the Replace with HTML Code (Body) section. You have to opt to share the calendar.

To be honest, I just tried this and it is about as convoluted as anything. But once I opted to share the calendar it works.

I configured my googlen calendar to display a list view by default. However in xara it always displays the grid view ?

What does it display when you publish?

The calendar grid/ matrix view. You can see it here btw:

It also does not fit exactly in the space of the page, no matter how I try to resize the window in XWD

Open the calendar Placeholder. Somewhere, its code will show 'width="100%"'. Change this to 85%.
