Shortcode to insert calendar on to another page

[Stuart]

Hi,
Just installed The Events Calendar 3.9.1 and i like it!

However, i would like to have the calendar display on a page i have previously used for a calendar which has sidebars. I have reviewed the Theme Guides but as im just an amateur dont really understand what im supposed to be looking at. Can you provide a shortcode that i can insert in to the page i want to use so that it displays the calendar like it would if i was using the default template.

I did try and set the calendar up using the settings page, basically want a right side bar that displays Woocommerce Sidebar but this doesnt appear in the drop down menu and cant see anyway of getting it to display.

I would really appreciate any help you can give.

Hey Stuart,

I’m curious, when you describe having tried to configure things in the plugin settings, do you mean the “Events Template” option specifically? We have this under the “Basic Template Settings” section of the events “Display Settings” tab, as shown in this screenshot → https://cloudup.com/c6kLmOFHlMJ

If various WooCommerce templates do not show up there, then you may be able to make things work by making those templates actual theme “Page Templates”, which you could contact the WooCommerce support team for assistance with.

Now, apart from all of these things, is your question about embedding events or specific event views. While there are no shortcodes built into our plugins by default as of now, there is a separate, un-official, un-supported plugin called Event Rocket by one of our awesome developers Barry → https://wordpress.org/plugins/event-rocket/

That plugin does have shortcodes, though they may not meet your needs. We don’t offer support for that plugin, but if you check it out and play around with it a bit, you might find a working solution for now.

Let me know if anything here is helpful Stuart!

Cheers,
George
