Does not Work
by kptguven·3 months ago
This hasn’t been tested for WordPress version 6.9 and it didn’t work when I installed it. I just got “Error Code: 404. Call Link seems to be wrong.” and couldn’t resolve the issue. I suggest trying another solution.

My favorite calendar tool now has a killer WP plugin
by Alex Medick·3 years ago
If you haven’t heard of Cal.com, they’re a killer open-source alternative to Calendly (cal.com is a much better product design and UX wise, imo).
They just launched a WP plugin for easy integration on your WordPress site.
It definitely rocks and you should be using this plugin + product right away.
