Ajax Event Calendar 1.0.2
So I’ve been playing with a few different calendar plugins and was completely geeked when I found this! Not only does it create an awesome looking calendar, but it also allows you to put a list of your events into a widget!
This plugin has tons of great features, but of course I figured the best way to demonstrate this plugin was to simply show you. There were a few different things I was looking for with a Calendar plugin and having already bought a few different plugins that looked cool, but didn’t really have the exact functionality I was looking for I figured it would make more sense to go back to the WordPress.org plugin directory (it had been a while since I checked the free calendar plugins).
So some of the features I was looking for with a calendar plugin were the availability to show the calendar by day, week or month as well as simple color customization (remember, I’m the geek about the visual stuff!). I also wanted there to be a GOOD option for adding the calendar to widgets, setting recurring events and creating categories.
This has ALL that and WAY more!
Adding the calendar to your Site:
- To add the calendar to the page, you’re just going to use the shortcode “[calendar]” (don’t include the quotes though- I had to do that for the purpose of this post otherwise the calendar would pull into this page).
- To add the events to your sidebar widget, just add the shortcode “[eventlist]” to a text widget (you’ll see both of these demonstrated in the video).
Take a look at the video to see how easy this is to install, set up and use.
