## Description

Thanks for checking out the [localendar](http://www.localendar.com) calendar plugin
for WordPress. We have been powering web calendars for thousands of sites for over
16 years, and are pleased to provide a dedicated calendar plugin for WordPress.

Why use a slow, stripped-down calendar plugin that offers only a few basic features
when you can have the power of our complete solution which offers [over 100 features](http://www.localendar.com/calendar/online-calendar-features)?

**We always display full event titles!** Many calendar plugins truncate your event
titles to fit their layout, and force users to mouse-over each entry to see the 
full text.

localendar makes it easy to customize the calendar on your site. Whether you use
our Theme Editor (no coding required!) or custom CSS hooks, you can make your calendar
fit your site perfectly.

Includes **Twitter integration**: Send event reminders as custom tweets.

Our new “School Year” view is perfect for schools and other venues that don’t want
to show a 12-month calendar

#### Calendar Features

 * Full event title display on all calendar views – **no trunctation!**
 * Year/Month/Week/Day block and list views, “Today + Happening Soon”, and a mini-
   calendar widget
 * Twitter and email support for event reminders
 * Add calendar attachments directly from Dropbox.com
 * Sophisticated “Repeating Event” Functionality
 * Publish your calendar and events in various languages and timezones
 * Full import/export support for iCal-based calendars (Google, Yahoo, Apple, etc)
 * Merge calendars
 * **Unlimited** custom event categories
 * Local **weather forecasts**
 * Search within a calendar (sorted by relevancy, custom search periods)

#### Customize Customize Customize

 * Use Images and Clipart in Event Descriptions: Add multiple images and clipart
   items to your events to create highly visual and detailed descriptions
 * Extensive clipart library, or upload your own.
 * 8 different [transition effects](http://www.localendar.com/samples/specialeffect1/free-web-calendar.html)
   that can be applied to your public calendar when visitors move to a different
   time period: Fade, Vertical Slide and Fade, Zoom In, Bounce Right, Curtain, and
   more!
 * **Powerful WYSIWYG Theme Editor:** Our custom point-and-click widget gives you
   amazing control over the look and feel of your calendar. No CSS or development
   skills required!
 * Custom Image Backgrounds: Upload your own images to make your calendar seamlessly
   fit your site
 * Common Event Information: Add “boilerplate” text (such as ‘About Us’, contact
   info, location, etc) to all of your events automatically without tedious retyping.

Get the plugin, create an account at [localendar.com](http://www.localendar.com),
and put a powerful, capable calendar on your site! Check out the screenshots for

### 󠀁[buggy](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/buggy-132/)󠁿

 [3cstudio](https://profiles.wordpress.org/3cstudio/) 15, Agostu de 2019

With recent changes to WordPress, Localendar is showing more and more issues… attempts
to resolve those issues with “support” resulted in a dead end (no response). Years
ago it seemed like a great solution — WordPress has progressed while Localendar 
has not.

Very limiting, and dated layout.

This should not be allowed here on WP, seems fishy.

You have to have an account on their site. You have to pay to not see ads on your
calendar.
