not in wp.org repository any longer ?

It’s there, but it’s not accessible to the public at the moment. I’m following up some issues in this regard with the plugins team here at www.ads-software.com and will post an update to this thread when I have further details.

A further update; while this issue is being resolved, the latest Calendar files can be downloaded from the following SVN link

https://plugins.svn.www.ads-software.com/calendar/tags/1.3.3/

ok, thanks for this quick reply.

Do you have details of the issue ?

I have received a communication from the plugins team. A policy related issue has been brought to my attention, which is the cause of their making the plugin unavailable at this time via www.ads-software.com

The policies referred to in this communication are here: https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/about/guidelines/

While I take time to respond to this I’d like to clarify the following for yourself and all other Calendar users

• The unavailability is not security related. There are no outstanding security related bug reports concerning Calendar lodged with me, nor have I been made aware of any other reasons why Calendar is not safe to use.
• Users can continue to use Calendar on their websites as normal despite www.ads-software.com not carrying a current download link. Installs can be carried out manually using files obtained via the SVN link previously posted if required
• Support will be available as normal either here, or via my own forums, whichever the user prefers

I will post further updates as and when I have them.

thanks for this reassuring reply !

Any word on the issues yet? I am a huge fan.

Still safe to use, no resolution to the plugin being MIA from the repo

Thanks for letting me know I use it in 70 sites. It’s going to be a ton of work for me to remove ??

Hi Kieran
I have the smartest looking date plugins in WP on just one of my blogs; it’s called “Calendar” ??
Any further word of its availability? I don’t think I can do the SVN link thingo without messing up … wouldn’t even know where to start … ??
Thank you once again for the ideal plugin

(the blog with Calendar)

UPDATE: I surprise myself sometimes so I went to the SVN link and managed to zip up those files and even activated the plugin BUT… first, it wasn’t what I expected. It resulted in a complete month calendar and not just the one day date I was expecting, with the blue background and the gold and white text color.
Second,I am using a plugin called “Display Widgets” that is working fine with no widget ads on the homepage. My problem here is I don’t seem to have an option to change the page settings as I do on the other widgets. I am wanting the Calendar on the homepage Something I’m missing or it just can’t be done. I welcome your input on both my queries,thankyou, Kieran. Below is the link to the disputed Calendar:

Another UPDATE: All is well! I somehow doubled up and had the Calander plugin I was hoping for on the very bottom of the widget list whilst the calendar I didn’t want was at the top. Yet I still struck problems and solved it by copying the code from the other blog … and there it was, nicely sitting on the homepage only, just the way I wanted it. Great stuff! Thank you,Kieran.

Just to give everyone a long awaited update on this. Hopefully the plugin should soon be making a return to the repository soon – I’m just waiting to hear back from the WordPress plugins team. When I do I’ll post another update here.

Further to my last post, the plugin is now back online in the repository
