Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Simple Shortcode Calendar
To insert the current month, simply enter the following shortcode where you want the calendar to appear: [calendar] Please note that this calendar will change as months go by.
Simply include values for year and month parameters, e.g., [calendar year="1945" month="5"] This will output the calendar for May 1945. Years have to be entered using four digits, i.e. typing just "45" won't work. The allowed values for months are numbers from 1 to 12 (without leading zeros).
Since PHP's setlocale() function isn't always a reliable method with self-hosted WordPress sites, localized names have to be manually entered for each instance of the shortcode. For example, if you wish to output a calendar in Spanish, you'd have to enter the following: [calendar day_names="Dom,Lun,Mar,Mié,Jeu,Vie,Sáb" month_names="Enero,Febrero,Marzo,Abril,Mayo,Junio,Julio,Agosto,Septiembre,Octubre,Noviembre,Diciembre"] Please note that you have to fill in the names for all seven days if you choose to use the day_names parameter. Analogously, the month_names parameter requires all twelwe month names to work, regardless of the fact that you might want to display only one of them. Values for both parameters have to be entered in a comma-separated sequence, without spaces.
Yes, you can choose between Monday (default), Sunday or Saturday. Just use the parameter week_start. The allowed values are: "Sun", "Sunday", "Sat", "Saturday", case insensitive.
This can be done by using the dates parameter, like this: [calendar year="1945" month="5" dates="8,9"] This will output the calendar for May 1945, with 8th and 9th day highlighted. Values for dates parameter have to be entered in a comma-separated sequence, without spaces or leading zeros. Please note that the dates in the calendar will only be highlighted if you add an appropriate CSS rule to your theme's stylesheet, which brings us to the next question.
No. The shortcode outputs an unformatted table without any styles applied. To minimize the HTML output and maximize the control over the appearance we've decided to keep it simple. This is how the source of the calendar from the last example looks like: <table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="calendar"> <tbody> <tr> <td colspan="7">May 1945.</td> </tr> <tr> <th>Mon</th> <th>Tue</th> <th>Wed</th> <th>Thu</th> <th>Fri</th> <th>Sat</th> <th>Sun</th> </tr> <tr> <td> </td> <td>1</td> <td>2</td> <td>3</td> <td>4</td> <td>5</td> <td>6</td> </tr> <tr> <td>7</td> <td class="highlight">8</td> <td class="highlight">9</td> <td>10</td> <td>11</td> <td>12</td> <td>13</td> </tr> <tr> <td>14</td> <td>15</td> <td>16</td> <td>17</td> <td>18</td> <td>19</td> <td>20</td> </tr> <tr> <td>21</td> <td>22</td> <td>23</td> <td>24</td> <td>25</td> <td>26</td> <td>27</td> </tr> <tr> <td>28</td> <td>29</td> <td>30</td> <td>31</td> <td> </td> <td> </td> <td> </td> </tr> </tbody> </table>
