Add the Widget
💡
If you have multiple Google Calendars in Wavebox, create the widget in a dashboard that shares the same space.
- Add Widget
- In any dashboard, click Add Widget button top-right.
- In the Widget Library, select Google Calendar.
- Embed Helper & Code.
- In the widget, click on the 'Embed Helper' link to launch Google Calendar in a pop-up window.
- At the top of the window, copy the embed code and close the window.
- Paste the embed code into the widget text field.
- Click on the Save (disc) icon.
- Position & Resize
- Click and drag the widget to move it around.
- Drag an edge or corner to resize.
- Pop-Out View
- Hover over the widget, click the settings icon, and choose Pop Out. Keep your schedule visible in a small floating window.
Troubleshooting
- Blank or Error Message
- Double-check you’re signed into the correct Google account.
- Ensure the calendar is shareable or embedded correctly.
- No Notifications
- The widget provides a view-only calendar.
- Enable event reminders in the full Google Calendar app, and allow Wavebox notifications in your system settings.
- Can’t Edit Events
- Embedded calendars are usually read-only.
- For adding or modifying events, open Google Calendar in a full tab or as a dedicated Wavebox app.
- Multiple Accounts
- Use separate workspaces or containers for different Google accounts.
- If the widget shows the wrong calendar, re-add it while signed into the correct account.
