This is probably easy for some of you, but it took me awhile so I decided to share in case it might help someone else...
I struggled for a couple days with the calendar portion of Squarespace - mobile formatting was the main issue, but there were other considerations as well. In searching for best overall option, I decided to see if I could use Google Calendar within a Squarespace website. It took awhile to figure some of the details out; but the things I learned are all easy to implement.
1. Embedding the calendar is simple enough; here's a tutorial: https://www.askquesty.com/post/how-to-embed-google-calendar-squarespace-tutorial.
2a. Once embedded, the next step is to wrap the code within the codeblock. Something like this works:
<div class="googleCalendar">
ENTER EMBED CODE FOR CALENDAR HERE
</div>
2b. Also, in the codeblock, change the width in the embedded code from width="800" to width="100%"
3. After the code is wrapped, head over to CSS and add something like this:
<style>
.calendar-container {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
padding-bottom: 75%;
overflow: hidden;
}
.calendar-container iframe {
position: absolute;
top: 0;
left: 0;
width: 100%;
height: 100%;
border: 0;
}
</style>
That's it. Now you have an embedded google calendar that adjusts based on the screen size and the height doesn't collapse.
It isn't perfect, but it's free, easy to use, incredibly feature-rich, and likely will be around for awhile.
Hopefully this helps someone.
Cheers
