    I was interested in the simplicity of this plugin for a b and b site, but had to dump it because two basic requirements of any calendar in my opinion are to
    a) highlight the current day somehow, for ease of useability and
    b) be responsive. The calendar should assume 100% width of wherever it is placed.

    Even the premium version doesnt mention either of the above. Responsiveness is more than just fitting on a phone, it is allowing for the natural expansion into the space with which it is placed, so it always presents well at any width, so that as a web designer, I can show my client a professional looking result.

    Designing a plugin these days without properly addressing responsiveness is a bit like selling picture frames that only come in one size.

    I have experimented a bit further, and found that it is really easy with CSS to make this calendar responsive, and to highlight the current day (three css rule changes) as the code already adds a class to the current day. Could I make a request for the benefit of future users and ask that you incorporate these really minor css changes as part of the package – you then end up with a much better plugin with the smallest effort – a responsive calendar with the current day highlighted. To be honest I originally thought it would be excessive mucking about with css to get these things to happen, but it is so ridiculously simple I cant believe you guys have not incorporated it! Quite a good plugin in hindsight! You could propbably incorporate in the settings to govern appeoarance options i.e. if multiple calendars, one calendar month per row at full width, or multiple calendars on the same row (i.e. 3 columns setup) by making the css percentage divisible by 100% width as required etc etc
