Fix Extra HTML or Unrelated Text in a Calendar Embed

By Sparkforge Support Team ·Last reviewed May 3, 2026

Stray text near a Sparkforge calendar embed almost always comes from the page hosting it, not the embed itself. Verify the embed code in a plain text editor, then inspect the host page for hidden blocks or template leftovers.

If unrelated text (review snippets, third-party business names, free trial mentions) shows up near a calendar embed, the issue is almost always the page where the embed lives, not the embed code Sparkforge generates.

What is actually happening

  • The Sparkforge calendar embed script does not inject any third-party text or links.
  • Inside Sparkforge funnels and websites, stray snippets are usually hidden blocks left over from a template.
  • On external sites such as WordPress, the snippets typically come from other elements already on the page.
  • Sometimes the elements are styled display: none but still render in certain contexts.

Verify the embed code

  1. Copy the embed from Calendar Settings → Embed Code.
  2. Paste it into a plain text editor like Notepad.
  3. You should only see the expected <iframe> or <script> markup.

Check that brackets are not truncated. A common copy mistake leaves a closing tag like </script with no closing >. Repair brackets and re-embed.

Inspect the host page

Sparkforge funnels and websites

  1. Open the page in the builder.
  2. Look for hidden, empty, or unused sections near the embed.
  3. Delete or edit any unrelated text blocks.

External sites (WordPress, etc.)

  1. Open the editor for the host page.
  2. Use the browser's Inspect Element (right-click → Inspect) to find the stray markup.
  3. Remove or edit the offending element in the site's CMS.

Search the editor (Ctrl+F or Cmd+F) for keywords like trial, review, or demo if the source is hard to find.

Frequently asked questions

Does the calendar embed hurt SEO?

No. The embed code is clean and does not introduce external text.

What if the unrelated text is in the raw embed code?

That is rare. If a fresh copy from Calendar Settings still shows unrelated content, contact support with the page URL and a Loom of the issue.

Can broken brackets cause the problem?

Yes. A missing > or < in the embed can break parsing and surface adjacent page content. Recopy the embed and verify brackets.
