Calendar Setup FAQs

What is my username and how is it linked to my calendar(s)?

Your username on Stanza is no different than one on other platforms, such as X or LinkedIn. You set your username when first importing a calendar. Choose a username that reflects your calendar because it will be the public URL where people can find your calendar. This same URL is what you’ll use when sharing your calendar.

For example, the Golden State Warriors have the username ‘nba-warriors’ making their public URL: https://stanzacal.com/nba-warriors

Important: You set your username just once as changing it will break existing calendar subscriptions or active links.

Is there a limit to how many calendars I can import?

No, there is no such limit but please keep in mind that additional calendars may require you to upgrade.

How do I view the calendars I've imported?

Head to your Profile to see all the calendars that you've imported in the nav sidebar on the top right. You'll be taken to the page with all your imported calendars.

How do I edit an existing calendar I've imported?

On your Profile, click on Edit > Edit Calendar to edit your calendar name, description, link & tags.

Is there a limit to how many people can subscribe to my calendar?

No, there is no such limit.

How do I collect contacts for calendar subscribers?

You can turn on contact collection by going to your Profile > Learn More (in the "Add subscribers to your mailing list" section). Follow the instructions to select the # of contacts you'd like to collect, and make a payment. For more detailed instructions, check out this product update.

What are best practices for my calendar page on Stanza?

• Set a clear and concise calendar description that accurately describes the events in the calendar. Click on “Edit Calendar” (see image below) to update your calendar name and description.

• Update images for every event to reflect your branding.

• Update your avatar. Avatars are shown when recommending your calendar across the website.

How do I turn event links into icons on the website?

For automated calendars, links added via Stanza are automatically turned into icons.

For all creators who are manually updating their descriptions, use the exact following format in your calendar event descriptions:

• Buy tickets: https://samplelink.com

• Tickets: https://samplelink.com

• Buy Tickets: https://samplelink.com

• Shop: https://samplelink.com

• Watch: https://samplelink.com

We will pick up the links from the description to turn them into icons.

How can I turn off default ticketing links?

If you're an automated creator and prefer to use your own ticketing links instead of the default ones, just email us at [e-mail]

Can I allow others to add or edit events within my calendar?

Yes, for calendars that you maintain manually, you can directly share the calendar with others through your calendar app.

For instance, in Google Calendar, you can go to 'Settings & Sharing' to enable others to edit your calendar.

Please note that any changes made by anyone will automatically be reflected on Stanza’s website and in the calendars of your subscribers. Make sure that you share your calendar only with trusted individuals.
