Ads appear as events in embeded calendar	Reply to this Post Reply with Quote

I'm not subscribed to premium services but I embeded the calendar on my website and until today there were no problems. But now, the adds from google show inside the calendar's days as events. It distorts the calendar size and you can not see the entire calendar when this happens. It's very annoying. I don't mind ads as long as they are not inside calendar! Will this be corrected too?

On all non-premium calendars there have always been ads.

In the past, they would get a giant banner add to the right of the month-view on their calendar. Now, they will get anywhere from zero to three smaller ads inside the calendar. In general, this has the benefit of giving the member more room for their calendar to display (since the big space on the right isn't reserved). Plus, ads will not be shown on any days where there are calendar events.

For only 9.95 (or $.83 a month), users can purchase a Premium Basic subscription that will remove all ads from all calendar views.
If Google offers an add size smaller than 125x125, we will most likely incorporate it.

Our intention is not to distort the calendar size, so we are also working to insure no more than 2 ads are ever shown in a single week of the month view.

I too have encountered problems with this new system, so I found a free calendar (without ads) that I already had access to thru my server, Hostmonster. There are free calendars out there if you look hard enough.

So you're actually already paying for the calendar; it's just part of your subscription to Hostmonster.

I have noticed ads on our calendar and I do not want them there. How do I get them off?
