This morning I was researching a variety of plugins to integrate a Google Calendar to display on a WordPress page. I came across WPNG Calendar, a very easy solution for adding a calendar to any page within WordPress.
All smooth until I went to go preview my page. I had entered the:
- Google GDATA API Key
- Google Calendar Feed URL
And the page drew a JavaScript error and kept spinning the loading animation. Did some digging and I found the solution.
The Fix
By default the Google Calendar Feed URL will give you (XML Format):
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/CALENDARID/public/basic
This URL is valid for a XML feed, but for this plugin that doesnt work, if you use the “full” URL. Your problem will be solved!. Use this format below:
http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/CALENDARID/public/full
Hopefully that will work for you as well and save the headache of debugging and hoping.
If you have any issues feel free to contact us.
