You can disable Infinite Scroll. This will paginate your blog posts.
Here’s how to disable it:

Ok
And sorry another question. Honestly I don’t even use google calendar I just wanna embed the upcoming events link into my wordpress site. I know the url will start with https and end with ics but when i paste it into my site it doesn’t work, the events don’t show up
I know they give 3 different links
what is the exact link to use so i can embed it into my site

Hi @koolbeanz247,
While our guide references Google Calendar, you can use any online calendar with the Upcoming Events widget that provides a public iCalendar link ending in
.ics, as outlined here: https://wordpress.com/support/widgets/upcoming-events/#getting-a-calendar-linkWith the link that you’re trying to use, is it a calendar with any public events listed? If not, that might be the reason they’re not showing up.
-
I followed the instructions on this link already but the events are still not showing up. Not sure why I was able to do it before

-
Can you give a link to the post/page on your site where you’ve embedded the calendar? Then we can take a look.
-
Here is the link. Just scroll until you see upcoming events
I’m not able to send screenshots through here

Hi there,
How long ago did you add the Upcoming Events widget? Calendar .ics files aren’t updated immediately by providers such as Google Calendar, so there could be a delay because of that.
Also can you confirm your calendar is public in the “Share this Calendar” section in Google Calendar? If your calendar is not set to “public” then it can’t be shown on your WordPress.com site. Google has more info on how you can check that setting here: https://support.google.com/calendar/answer/37083
Thanks!

I just recently added all the widgets back to my site again. Yes my google calendar is public. I seen it was public when I was following the instructions how to add the events
Not sure why this is happening. I was able to do it before so not sure why it’s not working before
-
What is the date of the first event that should appear on your calendar? I tested your Google Calendar ICS link by importing it into my Google Calendar. I can see you have called this calendar “Events” but I don’t see any events on my end.
This is the view I see after I import it in Google Calendar.
Can you confirm when the first event is on your calendar? If there are none yet, can you add a few just as a test? I should be able to see them in my Google Calendar now that I am subscribed to it. Once I can see events in Google Calendar directly, they should also appear on the site.
Thanks!

I’m not sure what the first event is to be honest. How would I find out
I just thought if I added the link all the events would appear automatically. Or do I have to add them manually
I think it’s the holiday events one I wanna add
-
The events calendar widget can only show events that exist on the Google Calendar you have connected. If you don’t have any events on your Google Calendar, you’ll need to add those there manually.
For help with that, or for help getting a generic holiday calendar added to your own Google Calendar account, please contact Google support directly.
