## Beskrivning

Simple Shortcode Calendar lets you add an HTML-table-based monthly calendar to your
posts and pages by entering a shortcode.

**Features**

 * Defaults to current month.
 * Choose any year+month combination.
 * Choose the first day of the week (Monday, Sunday or Saturday).
 * Enter custom names for months and days (for localization purposes).
 * Highlight important dates.

This plugin is based on a [tutorial for building a calendar using PHP, XHTML, and CSS](http://davidwalsh.name/php-calendar)
by David Walsh.

## Installation

 1. Upload `simple-shortcode-calendar.zip` through Plugins->Add New, or extract and
    upload the directory `simple-shortcode-calendar` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` 
    directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ’Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Place the shortcode in a post or a page.

## Vanliga frågor

  How do I add the calendar to my post/page?

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.

  How do I choose a custom month?

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).

  How do I get localized names for months and days?

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.

  Can I change the first day of the week in my calendar?

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.

  How do I highlight certain dates?

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.

  My calendar looks plain, are there any display presets to choose from?

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>
    ```

Once installed you have no settings, no options, and you don’t even get a message
telling you what the shortcode is, could be much much better.
