It sounds like your widgets are not parsing shortcodes. If that is the case, no shortcode of any kind would work there. You will need to add the following to your functions.php file (preferably in a child theme):

add_filter(‘widget_text’, ‘do_shortcode’);

I’m sorry to say that I did not get it to work. I stopped working on this solution and did something completely different that did not display the calendar in a sidebar. Better luck to you, Francois.

Thanks – that was exactly what I needed to upload a header background image.

The results I get with the above suggestion are “category x OR category Y”. I also need the AND capability. Did you figure it out conqueringwordpress?

So, I almost have this done but for a few details. I ended up modifying templates/calendar-small.php to include a target in the link, then I used the target to send the contents of the event list to an iframe on the same page as the small calendar. It almost works great.

In order that the events list and individual event display in the iframe without the header and footer, I set those pages to a page template which has neither.

The problem is, event lists and individual events can be displayed elsewhere on the site (not in iframes) and then they do need the header and footer.

What I think would be easiest is if I could control the page used to display the event list or individual event programmatically. I could continue to use the default pages indicated in Settings > Pages for display in most places, but for display in an iframe I need to set it to a different page/template.

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Is there a hook that I could put in between the [event-list] tags like the formatting hooks?
Thanks!

Thanks Angelo – I’ve tried this today and the result is a small calendar with no event list under it. Clicking a date takes me to a separate page with the list of events for that day.

What I am looking for is for the event list of the selected day to display directly underneath the small calendar in the sidebar. I would like for the event list to update dynamically as each day is clicked, still showing underneath the small calendar on the same page in the same sidebar.

The only time it should take me to a new page is if I click the link for an individual event.

Is there any way to accomplish that? Thanks!

It looks like your variable has no “y” on the end but in the message body you have put a y at the end of Delivery. That mismatch could be it.

I am having the same issue and I do have some multi-day events. Have you found a fix for this one?

My site is https://www.hilltopmontessori.com and I am on the most current versions of the plugin (2.1.5) and WordPress (3.5.1).

Thanks,

With all that said, I think I am backing away from this solution and looking at WP events calendar. Do you know if users will be able to sync it with their personal mobile calendars like they would with a Google cal?

If you are still looking for a Google solution, there is one possibility, although it is pretty cumbersome too. I have been trying to do something similar.

You would need to share the calendars within Google. For example:
Main Calendar – stands along
Employee Cal 1 – shared with main
Employee Cal 2 – shared with main
(and so forth for all employee calendars)
As far as I can tell, you will have to get the owners of all of these calendars to share them for you. I don’t know of an admin tool to do it.

Then, log into the main calendar (through Google). Go into Calendar Settings > Calendars > click the main calendar and about halfway down you have the embed calendar section. Click Customize the size & other options. Then (at lower right) select all of the calendars to display (all employee calendars). Also make any other display selections you want such as colors. These selections change the values of the html at the top. When finished, copy what’s in the html box at the top of the page and use that as the Stout calendar feed.

It isn’t pretty, but it does work as long as the calendars are all public.

Thanks Ross – that worked perfectly.

I was having this same issue. I installed the plugin via the “Add new” button on the Plugins page of my site. Immediately after it told me the plugin had been installed successfully, I clicked “activate”. I could then see the various options for Membership. I set up everything as jtm12 did above but the plugin did not appear to be working.

Then I noticed that if I clicked the main “membership” menu item (titled Membership Dashboard), it gave me a message that the plugin was disabled and a link to enable it. I double-checked back over on the plugins listing and in fact, it was listed as enabled there. However, I went back to the Membership Dashboard, clicked the enable link there, and voila! The plugin began to work. Very strange.

Thanks – that did fix the 404. However, instead of taking me to the page my box appears on, a search takes me to a display of the text-only portion of that box. Is there any way to make it direct the search result to the containing page? The individual box by itself will not make much sense to the user.

Thanks for your help!
