Available shortcodes

[fsdpe_events_calendar] displays the calendar view, list, and card layouts. Use [fsdpe_events_calendar show-cards=”false”] to hide the card view; by default, this is set to true.

The show-calendar option controls the visibility of the calendar view, while show-cards controls the visibility of the card view. The show-list option determines the visibility of the list view. You can set the number of events displayed in the card and list views using the events-per-page option, which defaults to 5.
Example: [fsdpe_events_calendar show-list=”false” events-per-page=”10″] – this will display only Calendar and Cards view with 10 events per page.

For adding events to your calendar, [fsdpe_add_to_calendar] displays the event details on the single event page, including an image and the “Add to Calendar” button. You can also specify an event ID with [fsdpe_add_to_calendar id=”1346″] to display a specific event in any location.
