Rolf, never mind. I found it by going to Site Admin>System Maintenance>Cache and Content>Cache Status>Clear Cache.

Okay, cleared cache, brought up website in browser, reloaded a couple times, but calendar is still small.

...er... I may be barking at the wrong tree here, but I'm willing to bet that you don't have the stylesheet correctly attached to the template. IIRC it's a pretty straightforward process on a CGCalendar fresh install. Then all you have to do is to use a copy and customize it at will.

You were absolutely correct. Sort of.... Let me explain what I missed.

What had happened was that I had installed and removed Calendar. And when I installed CGCalendar, I attached its style sheet to the correct template.

What I did not notice was that the Calendar style sheet was still left behind and still attached to the same template. All I had to do was unassociate that old one, and delete it.

Reloading the pages a couple times and all is well.

You are a life saver! Thanks so much!

Clear the Content Cache under the System Maintenance of Site Admin menu.
There was a style sheet that was installed with CGCalendar. I manually attached it to the correct template, as it failed to attach to the default one. That it appears in the correct layout seems to indicate that it is correctly done. However, the calendar just isn't the format and size it should be.
The stylesheet is there as an example only. It must be attached by you as it is not meant to be attached automatically. This is the same with any smaple CSS provided by a module.

The sample will give you a starting point, but you will need to work on the calendar's template file to tweak the HTML to do what you want it to do. And, the CSS will need to be customized to the layout that meets your needs. At this point, it is HTML and CSS skills.

There are a lot of resources online to help shape up a grid based calendar uses tables, divs, and lists.

Thanks, JohnnyB. But I've got that part. I only needed the thing to display in the first place as it should. It is doing that now.
