Inserting calendar in menu

[Fabio]

Hello, we have to insert a calendar in a website menu, and we have seen that you offer for premium version the feature “shortcode”.
The questions are:
– if we do “do_shortcode()” does it work in a page template?
– if we navigate througout the months, will the menu remain opened as in the image attached?
– can we call the shortcode via ajax?
here’s the result we want to achieve http://www.fabioponta.info/upload/uploads/qualityx/menu-calendar.jpg
Thank you

Good evening Fabio and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your questions.

– if we do “do_shortcode()” does it work in a page template?

Yes, absolutely.

– if we navigate througout the months, will the menu remain opened as in the image attached?

It looks like you will probably want to use our Pro widgets shortcodes: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/pro-widget-shortcodes/

The mini-calendar widget seems perfect for that purpose.

As for how it looks, you can tweak it as much as you want.

To do that you simply need to use a template customization of the view you want to modify.
You might want to read our Themer’s guide to get a sense of how that works.

– can we call the shortcode via ajax?

If you have a way to execute normal WordPress shortcodes via Ajax, then these shortcodes should work as well.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.
