This event calendar ONLY WORKS ON WORDPRESS 3.0 and above.
For an earlier version of the calendar please visit https://plugins.svn.wordpress.org/kino-event-calendar-plugin/tag/v1.4/kino-event-calendar-plugin.zip
Once installed the calendar must be dragged into the side bar from Appearance > Widgets. The calendar will then show in the sidebar of every page.
You can easily select an Events page which shows all current and future events by entering the smartcode [events] into whatever page you like.
The admin area enables you to add, edit and remove events quickly and easily, and changing colours is a breeze. The Kino Events Calendar does not use blog posts to handle events but rather lets you add events manually. This flexibility makes integrating the calendar into client sites much more feasible, and the colour changing options allow for simple branding too.
See the Idaho Community College site for a working <a href="http://www.idahocommunityaction.org/" title="Kino Event Calendar example" rel="nofollow ugc">example</a>.

<li>You can now pick a master colour and rollover colour for events, and individual colours for categorised events.</li>
<li>Events can be given ‘intro text’ using the Excerpt functionality.</li>
<li>Place the main Events page which lists all future events wherever you want in your site using the shortcode [events].</li>
<li>Events now use custom post types and are much easier work with.</li>
</ol>

<li>Sigh with relief.</li>
<li>That’s it.</li>

Pretty Google Calendar

Very simplistic and practical design for presenting gCal on page. Great support too. I tested and tried several other gCal plugins and found this to be the only one that provided a way to style and work with the Google Calendar on my website page.

Great alternative to embed


Pretty Google Calendar is an extraordinarily useful and welcome plugin, especially considering Google's disappointing default integration. It is responsive and seamlessly adapts to any screen, switching to list mode when necessary. Customization is simple and intuitive, allowing you to modify colors and fonts to seamlessly integrate with your website. The synchronization simply "works," and the shortcode is rich in parameters, including language localization, offering complete control over the calendar's appearance and behavior. In short, Pretty Google Calendar is the ultimate solution for integrating Google calendars easily and effectively on WordPress. Thank you for this contribution.


Easy, Responsive, Customizable


If you are wanting to show Google Calendars on your WordPress website, look no further.



Highly recommend this plugin. Great Support 👍


Great Plugin. Worth Every Star

Embedded Google Calendars that don't suck.
