Check out the official website for a comprehensive demo and overview.
You can either use the shortcode [add-to-calendar-button] or the Gutenberg Block.
With the PRO version, it only takes the ID to make it fly.
In the no-PRO case, you simply place the necessary attributes directly in the shortcode, or at the Gutenberg Block settings.
(Mind that you cannot use ‘[‘ and ‘]’ characters, when going for the shortcode option! For content formatting, you can use {‘{‘}xxx{‘…
This allowed easily putting an ‘Add to Calendar’ button for simple events. The other plugins we tried did not work or were full event solutions. Recommend the paid version if you want customization, but even the free version allowed us to modify things with code. Also had good documentation. Big shout out to the developers for this one. Great job.
What the title says: it’s super customizable and it just looks stunning no matter what options!
I also love the fact that you can insert it with a block, a shortcode or plain HTML!
Great little plugin! I was surprised to see that it is accessible, which is required in my line of work. Kudos! Lots of options to customize descriptions, etc. Also having a demo to generate code is very helpful for my colleagues that are not familiar with code. It is a well thought out and put together plugin. Furthermore, I had an issue with the shortcode not working at first, so I submitted a support message, and it was fixed with a new update pushed out promptly within a couple hours. Fantastic support! 🙂
Super simple and flexible. Awesome! Well done 😉
i didn’t know this also comes as a WordPress plugin. Already?! That’s awesome!! Yaaay! Awesome plugin!
