Overview
This plugin pulls events from a LAUTI instance and renders them in WordPress via shortcodes. Just set your instance, drop a shortcode on a page, and publish.
Features
- Event list shortcode with optional links to LAUTI
- Timetable shortcode for multi-day events and rooms
- Minimal CSS you can override in your theme
Configuration
- In the admin dashboard, open “Lauti Calendar”.
- Set and save:
- Instance URL: URL of your LAUTI instance.
- Instance Name: Text shown next to “powered by” under the list.
Important: Save settings before inserting shortcodes to avoid errors when saving pages.
Shortcodes
List
Add to any page or post:
[lauti-calendar-list groupID=66b1a314-1234-5678-9123-1d53372d85ef title="Veranstaltungen" infos=time,location,description link=true]
Options:
– title: Heading text shown above the list.
– infos: Comma-separated fields to show. Supported: time, location, organizers, involved, description.
– groupID: UUID of your group (open your group in LAUTI and copy the ID from the URL).
– placeID: UUID of your place (open your place in LAUTI and copy the ID from the URL).
– link: true/false. If true, each event links to its page on your LAUTI instance.
Info: When entering groupID and placeID the filter applies both. You only see events from your group at the specific place.
Timetable(experimental)
This solution is a bit hacky and was written for a specific need. It works in most cases, but
can be a bit quirky sometimes.
Render a timetable for a multi-day event across specific rooms/places:
[lauti-calendar-timetable id="2aa9e94b-1234-5678-9012-34a0f7c44c29" places="Raum Rosa,Raum Betty,Raum Clara,Raum Emma" startHour=9 endHour=23]
Options:
– id: UUID of a multi-day event.
– places: Comma-separated list of place names. This list has to match the option “Extra information for location” of an event exactly.
– startHour: Starting hour of the timetable (integer, 0–23).
– endHour: Ending hour of the timetable (integer, 0–23).
Development
Spin up WordPress with the plugin mounted:
docker-compose up # or make dev
