A handsome, fully featured event calendar for your WordPress site. Developers: look no further, the highly appraised CLNDR.js is now here at your disposal on WordPress straight out of the box. Tweak the CLNDR.js options and fine-tune the master stylesheet and Bob’s your uncle – a painlessly elegant calendar for use in any page/post or widget. With a simple event manager bundled in, you’ll be on your way in seconds without the need of any third party apps or services trying to charge a premium just for the use of the sidebar widget.
Usage
Use the Instances page to create and modify different displays of your events. Based on the name you chose for your instance, a shortcode will be generated (and shown in the table) for use in any page, post or “Text” widget content field. Each instance can each have a different CLNDR.js template and include more JS options, so the event display could range from a full calendar to a text list of each event.
Not a developer?
Not to worry, the plugin comes pre-shipped with a couple of front-end calendar instances to get you on your way. For most people, the default options won’t need editing, and all that will need to be done is to edit the master stylesheet to change the colours to match your theming. If you don’t know CSS, this is a great opportunity to get your fingers very slightly dirty – the section of the stylesheet you’ll want to edit is fully commented with which colours do what.
