Yes, as I mentioned twice, you SHOULD NOT have the smallcal plugin on
the same system as the new Shared Calendar plugin.

Hard coding the calendar ID will mean that anyone who looks at a
different calendar will get the wrong links.  The "real" solution in
this case probably has something to do with faking a getPref() call
since your "entry" page does not yet have a user login.  But that's
all dependent upon whether or not you remove the smallcal plugin, etc.
