applause   Preview of New Calendar Style
This has been a long time in coming, but it's just about ready...

Suppose you have a public calendar like:
http://www.localendar.com/public/spandemo

Kind of messy, right? Wouldn't it look nicer if multi-day events were merged together like this:
http://www.localendar.com/public/spandemo?style=M4

We think so smile

One of the reasons this was so complicated for us is because (unlike most of the other calendars out there) we support events that repeat multiple days, multiple times in the week. Like this simple example:

http://www.localendar.com/public/spandemo1?style=M4

Most of the other folks just let you take an event and have it repeat for a few days a single time. We realize though, that our "advanced repeating" functionality is more than many people need, so we'll be adding an easy way to do simple repeats also.

In the meantime, yes, you can try out the new format simply by adding ?style=M4 to your public calendar link. It only works for the full page style right now, but it will work everywhere in the next week or so.

Oh - one other quick thing: This will probably become the default month-view style in the near future.

Happy localendaring!
