Support This Plugin!

While this software is being provided free to use, it takes considerable time to develop and support. If you do find it particularly useful or want to request a feature then consider donating money as an incentive for me to carry on developing it.

Thanks!

I have other plugins too!

AJAX Calendar is a plugin that will display an AJAXified WordPress calendar. This enhances the functionality of the standard calendar by:

  • Allowing the asynchronous navigation of months, without updating the page
  • Adding a drop-down list of post titles in each month (through the «-» button)
  • Widget support

Version History

  • 2.4.9 - Fix DB prefix bug
  • 2.4.8 - Category selection
  • 2.4.7 - WP 2.6
  • 2.4.6 - WP 2.5 compatability
  • 2.4.5 - Update widget class for 2.1 support

Installation

No sniplet called advert

To install the plugin:

  1. Download ajax-calendar2.zip
  2. Unpack the zip. You should have a directory called ajax_calendar, containing several PHP files
  3. Upload the ajax_calendar directory to the wp-content/plugins directory on your WordPress installation.
  4. Enable the calendar in your theme from the Widget page
  5. Make any modifications to your theme, as required
  6. Activate plugin

You can find full details of installing a plugin on the plugin installation page.

Template tag

If you are not using WordPress Widgets you can display the calendar with the following template tag:

ajax_calendar ();

This should be inserted into your sidebar where you want the calendar to appear.

No sniplet called ajax calendar

    Alfons, p.m, I've changed the plugin to use a different AJAX library that doesnt clash with prototype. It's also a lot smaller so it loads faster!

    hi,

    this is a great plugin, but it doesn't work with the lightbox plugin. with lightbox activated, the calendar loads normally but the function of switching months doesn't work: clicking august reloads the page to the august archive but the calendar still says september.

    with lightbox turned off, the calendar works perfectly.

    lightbox calls prototype and scriptalicious; ajax-calendar uses mootools.js .

    is there a way to reconcile the two? i'm not going to give up lightbox.

    sorry, i don't know much of anything about javascript...

    Many thanks -- now I just need to figure out how to fix the colors.

    Hi,

    I spent like an hour researching it now. I have 2.2.2 wordpress running on adir1.com and lost of active widgets.

    However, even once the Ajax Calendar plugin is Activated, widget doesn't show up. It appears that nothing calls template_redirect from the administrative console, where under Presentation I am trying to see/add the Ajax calendar.

    I did verify that widget gets properly registered on the Blog itself, but I can't add it via Dashboard if it does not show up there.

    I tried fixing it, but the class redirection that you are using with &$this is not something I am familiar with.

    I think a lot of people are having this issue, as can be seen in the comments.

    Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated.

    Hi Brain,

    The incorrect hover style is just a side-effect of my site theme and isn't included in the plugin.

    Hi UG - this plugin looks cool but have you noticed that in Firefox (I haven't checked it in any other browsers) when you mouseover the center link between the months at the bottom of the calendar that the margins are squeezed so the insides of the calendar 'move' (are squeezed? I'm not sure how best to describe it) - if you aren't aware of this behavior I can take screenshots to show you the difference between the the look of the calendar normally and then when mousedover - if you are aware, do you have plans to fix this or is it just a quirk of css that can't be helped?
