I thought that was the point of this plugin… so I didn’t have to see the iframe code (although I believe it is supposed to just convert it to iframe code). Just a cleaner look when editing.

Marking resolved…

Awesome! Thank you!

It looks like it might be working. Can you tell me where the documentation is? The Configuration page says, “You will find several options in the configuration screen to customize your best result.” Where might I find that?

I fixed the problem by adding:

$more    = strpos($content, "<!--more-->");
if ($more) {
	$content = substr($content, 0, $more);
}

Full code change to v2.1 with PHP format cleanup:

Digging into this more, I found the jetpack/modules/shortcodes.php loads the shortcodes from jetpack/modules/shortcodes/, however, there is no PHP file that adds the ‘upcomingevents’ shortcode in /wp-content/plugins/jetpack/modules/shortcodes.

I believe this is the problem.

When can we get this added to Jetpack?

From what I can find, Jetpack currently supports these shortcodes: [archives], [audio], [bandcamp], [blip.tv], [dailymotion], [digg], [facebook], [flickr], [gist], [googlemaps], [googleplus], [googlevideo], [mixcloud], [polldaddy], [presentation], [slide], [scribd], [slideshare], [slideshow], [soundcloud], [ted], [twitter-timeline], [vimeo], [vine], [youtube]

However, the help file says it supports these: [archives], [audio], [bandcamp], [blip.tv], [dailymotion], [facebook], [flickr], [googlemaps], [jetpack_subscription_form], [polldaddy], [presentation], [scribd], [slideshare], [slideshow], [soundcloud], [ted], [twitter-timeline], [upcomingevents], [vimeo], [vine], [youtube], and [wpvideo (VideoPress)]

NOTE: Differences are in bold.

Hi Massimo,

I’ve tried everything I can think of to get this working, but I can seem to get it to work. If I set the calID I want for this one calendar as the default, it works fine, but specifying it in the calendar field doesn’t seem to work. What am I doing wrong?

[sz-calendar calendar = "[email protected]"/]

I’m running WordPress 3.9.2.
