html scrolling text box of public events from today to X-days out
I'm wondering if one of the premium packages offer a means or method to present, in a type of scrolling anchor; text box, public events from today to some number of days in the future. Where a mouse-over on the box would pause, to allow possible on-click for selection details to that event.

I like the Calendar merge feature, and can see this working well; especially for a church; where each ministry would have their own calendar, and the Merged-Calendar could depict on the website, all-event from today to some number of days out, making the website a living; calendar driven; website.

Re: html scrolling text box of public events from today to X-days out
The closest thing I can think of (and it's not restricted to paid calendars) is the Today+Happening Soon view (available under the Publish Wizard)

I think it shows events for today + the next 10 days (or maybe 7; I can't recall blushing )

It doesn't scroll however; it's a static list.

With a premium account, will the "Happening Soon" appear at the top of the scrollbox, rather than somewhere else?

Will the ad's be gone from both the event list and event detail?

Any chance in getting a changing the "Happening Soon" text to something else? What about key-value pair on the URL?

What about the number of days out from today, say via a key-value pair on the URL?

You could make it an enhancement to one of the premium packages.

Yes - all ads will be removed, and your other points are excellent suggestions.

We have a rather full plate of some exciting stuff in the works right now, so we'll need to work/test through those first smile
