 * When I open page in Chrome browser: I got the following error (thanks for any
   help!)
 * While trying to retrieve events, Google returned an error:
    The stream IO handler
   requires the allow_url_fopen runtime configuration to be enabled Please ensure
   that both your Google Calendar ID and API Key are valid and that the Google Calendar
   you want to display is public. Only you can see this notice.

 * Calendar ID is correct, and the API has been recreated and using a fresh one.

 * Hi the first thing I would have you do is double check this to make sure everything
   is setup correctly:
 * [http://docs.simplecalendar.io/system-requirements/](http://docs.simplecalendar.io/system-requirements/)
 * If it is then you might want to contact your host about that error ( allow_url_fopen)
   and see if it is something they can enable to see if it helps.
