My booking calendar is a blank space
You open your book-a-call page and where the calendar should be there's a tall stretch of nothing. The page still loads, the heading is there, but the one thing the page exists for - picking a time - is gone.
If ads or emails point at that page, this is urgent in a way most site glitches aren't: every click lands on a page that can't take the booking.
The calendar isn't lost
Booking tools like Calendly don't live in your site. Your page holds a small reserved space, and the provider draws the calendar into it when the page loads. Your availability, your event types and every booked call are all still in your provider account, untouched.
What can break in a move is just the drawing step. Usually the calendar comes across already drawn and works from day one. When the move captured the page before the calendar had appeared, the reserved space comes across empty - and stays empty, because the code that would have filled it doesn't carry over. That's the blank gap you're looking at. It's the same family of problem as Part of my page is blank, or a slideshow does nothing, with one difference: the fix puts a working, bookable calendar back, not just hidden words.
What to ask
The booking calendar on my book-a-call page shows as a blank space. Check every page with a booking calendar, fix the ones that aren't showing, and show me before it goes live.
Ask for the whole site, not just the page you noticed - booking calendars have a habit of appearing on several pages, and the quiet ones stay broken longest.
What comes back
The calendar returns as a live booking window in the same spot, at the same size. Visitors pick a date and time and book exactly as they did before; the booking lands with your provider as normal. No code is added to your site to do it - which is why the repair is safe and why it can't break again the same way.
You review it on a preview first and approve it before it goes live. If you spot it on a Monday morning with a campaign running, say so - it's a quick fix and worth doing first.

Questions people ask
- Is my Calendly account or availability affected?
- No. The calendar lives with your booking provider, not in your site. What broke is only the window your page shows it through - your events, availability and booked calls are exactly as they were.
- Why did this happen in the move?
- On your old site a small piece of the provider's code drew the calendar into the page as it loaded. bernard doesn't carry old code across, because it's the main way a moved site can become unsafe. Usually the calendar is captured already drawn and keeps working; when the capture caught the page before the calendar had drawn, you get the blank gap.
- Will the fixed calendar actually take bookings?
- Yes. Booking providers like Calendly are built to work inside a simple frame in the page - visitors pick a time and book exactly as before, and bookings land in your provider account as normal.
- Do I need to paste in code from Calendly?
- No, and please don't - pasted code is removed for safety. Just describe the problem, or share your booking link if you're adding a calendar that was never on the site.
- How do I check the rest of the site?
- Ask for every page with a booking calendar to be checked, not just the one you noticed. The whole site gets swept in one go and you get a page-by-page answer.
- Will I see it before visitors do?
- Yes. The repair lands on a preview first, and nothing reaches your live site until you approve it.
