why it is called "google calendar"?

  • This calendar events plugin has nothing with your google account by default! I do not know if you can link to your google account if you specify your own API key; If this is true, i do not know why the author did not give an option for you to link your google accout by simply filling in your google account information. You can neither input your google events, nor link this to your google calendar. i really do not understand why it is called “google calendar”.

    Setup an event is horribly complex. you are facing a long “text-only” code (like operating MS-DOS 20 years ago). you have to input everything including time. Why some basic event elements including time, date, etc. were not designed as something like buttons, drop-down menus, or fill-in blanks?

    Sorry you had a tough experience getting set up. We realize connecting to your Google calendar isn’t super easy, but we did the best we knew how so far.

    That being said, we’re looking into improving the user experience for future versions.

    If you need a calendar plugin that is entirely hosted in your WordPress install, there are other plugins that do that. This one is intended to work with Google calendar only.

    Do the author a favor and change or delete the review. He’s operating with the technology available. And if you’re already spending time using WordPress, the little bit of time this plugin takes to use in nothing. Not worthy of a 1 star review.
