Close to perfect! Everything I want in one place. Any chance I might be able to sync with my Windows Phone (Outlook) Calendar?

Hello,
Great work on this widget! It is one of those rare gems that works well, looks good and is intuitive!

I have just one feature (request?) unless there is a proper way of doing it.
How do you add events to dates that are in the future (as in not this month)
For eg. Adding an event to a date this month is simple, just click on the day that appears in the agenda and type it in. However, if it's to add an event to a date in a month or two, the days do not appear in the agenda list.

(I see only one way - double clicking on the calendar date to open up Google calendar in a browser) I find myself avoiding inputting things into Google Calendar directly as it is not very intuitive. And I'm looking for a simple solution that I can check quickly at a glance on my desktop.

Proposition: By clicking on a date in the Calendar, it makes the day appear in the Agenda, which can then be clicked - to add an event :D

This takes care of inputting events for any dates (this month or in the future)

Thanks for reading!

Ah, good point. I should probably make a clickable button for every single day in the visible month. Forget why I didn't do this initially, probably because of a bug I fixed. Anyways, it's in v47.

It works well, thanks for your reactivity!

One thing I have stumbled upon as well, is when you click on a date in the Agenda: You have the Calendar dropdown box and Textbox. If you click on the Calendar dropdown and have it open for too long as you choose a Calendar, it actually selects the whole widget (changing it to a colour blue) and moves the position of the widget on the desktop. (Following the mouse cursor)

In order to resize a desktop widget, while widgets are unlocked, click and hold the widget till a "bar" along the right side shows up. You can then click and drag the top right.

I think I'll change a few things so the initial experience is better when used as a desktop widget.

Really like the plasmoid.
It works for me:
Create an event in the agenda on any future day. There is an event today. Example: 25 APR "Test." Enter.
Appears 20 April(today)
"2017-4-25 Test
21:58-22:58"
This is the correct behavior?

"25 APR Test" and "2017-4-25 Test 21:58-22:58" both work for me (placed on apr 25). The new event form is basically the same as the one on the website, except it adds "2017-6-30 " in front of your input (assuming the date you selected was june 30th). Google used the second date instead of the first.

Excuse me. Write and read through an interpreter.
My event is today. I thought it should be a day that is selected in the agenda that is on 25 April.

What county / language? Russian?
This? https://i.imgur.com/7jQnSyE.png

Huh, looks like the russian locale (Cyrillic?) doesn't have the button.

But the english locale does.

Ah, I've managed to reproduce it. I thought Српски was ru (Russian), but it's sr (Serbian). Changing it to Русский (which is ru) lets me reproduce the bug. I'm not 100% sure how to fix this though.

Changing it to sr does fix it, but can you read that?

* Fix "ConfigSerializedString.qml is missing" error when installed via a package manager that downloaded from GitHub by commiting the file.
