Hi,

I need a simple calendar to use with a travel/ blog site. I want the calendar with the events of our journey and if one clicks on a date (or event) a html page is shown.
Nothing more nothing less.

Can this be done?

Best Regards,
Marc

Hiya Marc,

You can use the CC calendar to make a calendar and add your events to the calendar. Then when someone clicks it it would open the little box with the event information on it and you can add links to that information for people to go to the web pages. I don't believe you can make the actual calendar events go directly to the web page though. Not without some major code finaggling outside the program that would take more than just a bit of HTML etc.

Just out of curiosity Marc, why wouldn't that work for you with CC Calendar? Clicking a link on a date really wouldn't be that hard to do. It actually does give you a very nice setup for the calendar and the little page that opens to show the event information is easily customizable (color can be redone with WIS or your favorite image editor), text can be reset to any font or color you wish etc. all within the CSS for it so it's pretty versatile. Clicking a link in the little window really wouldn't be that major of a difference would it?

Just trying to help since you already bought it :)

I would agree. The colorbox type window that opens gives way more room for multiple links and more creativity.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Hello,

Well, I maybe stubborn :) but I really want the design the way I want it. I mean no disrespect. I do not want a popup window, I want a different page to be shown each time a date is clicked on a calendar. But no new page, hence an iFrame I suppose. Have a look at the png I attached.

Best regards,
Marc
