The currently installed EventCalendar module alloes to specify a calendar-feed that will be merged with manually entered entries. So if it is just about displaying basic info, this can be used. > I've prepared an unpublished website page and was wondering if using > <iframe> attributes are OK?

And IIRC google's embed-this-calendar tool also creates iframe code, so this is also the easiest way to add it. > I am also wondering about the > width of the calendar, is 800x600 OK or should it be larger?

The LO theme on the website has a maximum width of 900px - it should not be larger than that. > I know there is a calendar plugin for SilverStripe, but using a Google > Calendar adds a little more flexibility and the learning curve for admin > help is zero as many people are familiar with Google Calendar. See above - enter the goolge-calendar ical-URL to the event-Calendar page. If you need more fancy stuff than iframe, it is also easy to add a dedicated template that would allow you to use any html without any restriction. > Note that you have to be logged into SilverStripe to see the unpublished > page (unless someone knows of a way to see the unpublished page). That is the point of having unpublished pages... While it would be possible to change the security permissions to allow all users to view the draft content, this would just complicate things. If you want to make it public, but not "visible" - just uncheck "show in menu" (and set google-sitemap index to not indexed) and publish it - that way people can access the page when they know the URL, but it won't show up in the navigation and hence regular visitors will not stumble over it.
