This is an experimental addon that furnishes The Events Calendar/Events Calendar PRO with super powers.
Basic usage:
- It's a regular WordPress plugin!
- Activate The Events Calendar and optionally Events Calendar Pro (recommended) - this plugin depends on them
- Add a shortcode like
[event_rocket_calendar]to a page or post - The calendar widget should appear wherever you added that shortcode!
- You can even add params like
[event_rocket_calendar count="3"]to limit the number of events listed beneath the calendar
- Shortcodes like
[event_embed]and[organizer_embed]make this easy - There is even a programmatic means of embedding, ie
venue_embed()->get()(pass extra params in an array) - Powerful capabilities including cross-blog sharing and more
[event_embed blog="5" from="tomorrow"](list events from blog ID 5 from tomorrow onwards)
[event_rocket_calendar]embeds the calendar widget[event_rocket_list]embeds the list widget[event_rocket_countdown]embeds the event countdown widget[event_rocket_venue]embeds the featured venue widget
Both the countdown and venue widgets need to know which event or venue you are referring to. All of the following are examples of acceptable ways to pass this information:
[event_rocket_venue id="123"]which is nice and short[event_rocket_venue venue_id="123"]is also allowed[event_rocket_countdown id="789"]this time the ID relates to the event[event_rocket_countdown event_id="789"]again you can be more explicit if you wish
You can let it know you want the seconds to be displayed by using the show_seconds attribute, something like this:
[event_rocket_countdown id="789" show_seconds="true"]
You can download it right here on Github - look for the Download Zip link. You can also obtain it from the WordPress plugin directory ... as with all "officially listed" plugins that also means you can benefit from automated updates, etc.
