Hi @Lisa , hope you are well. Regarding this calndr thing, love the idea as said, however, I’m having some issues with it, only occasionally, and I was wondering if you run into this too. Sometimes, when I click add to the calendar it opens the app in a new tab but doesn’t open the calendar, and sometimes it works fine…any ideas?  
This is the link I’m using [https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=START&end=END&title=TITLE&timezone=America%2FNew\_York](https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=START&end=END&title=TITLE&timezone=America%2FNew_York)  
I use the template column and replace the values END, START, TITLE and then link it to a button with the action open link.

Thanks in advance

Hi

I haven’t experienced any issues with links, not opening. I tried to compare your template and mine (below) looks the same to me. Maybe because you skipped the description and location, but I don’t see why that would matter. Maybe try that and see if it works.

**My Template**  
[https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=SXX&end=EXX&title=TXX&location=LXX&description=DXX&timezone=America%2FNew\_York](https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=SXX&end=EXX&title=TXX&location=LXX&description=DXX&timezone=America%2FNew_York)

**Your Template**  
[https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=START&end=END&title=TITLE&timezone=America%2FNew\_York](https://calndr.link/d/event/?service=google&start=START&end=END&title=TITLE&timezone=America%2FNew_York)

Another one I use all the time is [https://www.tablesgenerator.com/markdown\_tables#](https://www.tablesgenerator.com/markdown_tables#)

- to generate markdown tables (including with alignment)

Then I put my draft table into a rich text component on screen to test to see how it works, then once the recipe is perfected, move it into a template column or play in GSheets.

If you can host your own php page with mysql database yourls is your own url shortener. I will try it to shorten the app urls.

I used integromat to shorten the long deeplink: Result [https://visit.weeklystyle.de/3](https://visit.weeklystyle.de/3)

Looks nice in my tweets 🙂

In my case my provider did not support ipv6 so I can’t redirect the domain to my gliede app.

I hosted a index.html page with this content:

```
<!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>WeeklyStyle.de</title>
    <meta name="copyright" content="JackTools.Net">
</head>
<body>
	<iframe src="YOUR APP URL" style="top:0;left: 0;width:100%;height: 100%; position: absolute; border: none"></iframe>
</body>
</html>

```

Result with the Option “Start app in Desktop Mode”: [https://weeklystyle.de](https://weeklystyle.de)

P.S For a subdomain glide needs only ipv4 recods.
