Calendar Shortcodes
As of version 2.0, Gravity Forms Calendar now supports four different shortcodes. Each shortcode requires the id
parameter to work.
[gv_calendar]
This shortcode allows you to embed a calendar on your website.
[gv_calendar_link]
This shortcode will display a subscription link, allowing users to subscribe to your calendar feed using Google Calendar or Apple Calendar. The feed will update in real-time, ensuring events are always up-to-date. Requires Gravity Forms calendar 2.0 or later.
[gv_calendar_copy_button]
This shortcode will display a button that allows users to copy your calendar feed URL to their clipboard. The calendar feed URL is a live-updating link that displays information about your calendar events in real-time. Requires Gravity Forms calendar 2.0 or later.
[gv_calendar_export_button]
This shortcode will display a button that allows users to export an event configuration file (.ics
file) that they can import into any calendar application. Requires Gravity Forms calendar 2.0 or later.
Note: If you're not sure what the difference is between subscribing to a calendar feed and importing events from an .ics
file, read this article.
How to Find the ID of Your Calendar Feed
To find your calendar feed ID, go to the Forms page in Gravity Forms by hovering over Forms and clicking Forms. Next, hover over your form and click on the Settings link. Now, click on the GravityView Calendar tab on the left to see a list of your calendar feeds for that form. In the Shortcode column, you'll see the [gv_calendar]
shortcode with the id
parameter prefilled.
