Hi,

Actually I think there is a misunderstanding about Google Embeddable Calendar. Embeddable Calendar does expects user to be logged in whenever a private calendar is requested. If you are interested in making your private calendar available in your homepage, you could try out our recently launched JavaScript version of Calendar Data API -

I think Google claims that I can privately embed your calendar on an external site. This means that I should be able to keep my calendar private, and use the private embed link generating by their configuration tool. However, this does not work...

The only time my calendar populates is when my Google Calendar account is logged in.

Does anybody know how to do this?

Basically, I do not want the public to be able to view my calendar when they search google, but I want to be able to embed it on an external page.

I have been trying tohackthis by using cURL in php to automate logging into google calendars when my calendar is being viewed, and then log out when the calendar is not being viewed. I have been able to automate the login (let me know if you want to see the code) but I cannot do it in the background so currently, the calendar viewer is taken to the actual google calendar page.

Thank you!
