Configuring and Embedding Your Calendar
Seeker Events Network | All Plans
This article explains how to build a calendar widget for your website, from filtering events and choosing a layout to copying the embed code.
Your calendar widget puts your community’s events directly on your website. In the embed builder, you choose which events appear, pick a grid, list, or carousel layout, turn on features like search, and select the event details to show. Then you copy one snippet of code to add it to any page.
