Be more productive with Google Calendar thanks to extra functionality provided by GCalPlus.

GETTING STARTED:

To enable GCalPlus options after installation go to Google Calendar online and check the boxes in the pop-out that opens when you click the GCal Plus Icon in the Chrome navigation bar, next to your User Icon, top right. If you don't see the Icon click the "Extensions" icon (jigsaw piece) and click the pin for GCalPlus. You may need to reload the page for some settings to take effect, and you need to "Authorise" for some options for which GCalPlus needs access to your calendar and some settings.

MAJOR UPDATE (Manifest v3)

Version 2.x is a major update with significant changes under the hood that will allow GCalPlus to remain on the Chrome WebStore when all Manifest v2 Extensions are removed by Google.

There will probably be bugs, but overall performance should be much improved. If you have problems with "Authorize" you might need to "Disconnect" (if possible) then revoke permissions for GCalPlus at https://myaccount.google.com/connections, then "Authorize" again.

If you have problems please get in touch directly using one of these methods:

Love how versatile it is but asa I authorise the extension the menu disappears when I click on it. It's there when I have not authorised it. Any chance to solve this issue?

The extension has been working wonderfully, but just recently the arrow keys stopped scrolling through my days/weeks/months/etc. I'm not entirely sure if it's an issue with the extension or something else, but it looks like the Google Calendar UI changes have been messing up some features. I'm writing this review to bring awareness of my issue!

I also love this extension but the "Multiply copy" button disappeared. Can you give a projected date on when this might be solved by? Otherwise I unfortunately have to look for a different solution. Thanks so much Neil!
