This plugin embeds a GroupCal calendar into your WordPress site for public display and also loads the full GroupCal web application within the WordPress admin interface for management purposes. GroupCal is an external service that hosts the calendar data and provides the web application. This embedding and loading are achieved by using iframes. The purpose of these connections is to display the user's calendar data on their website and allow them to manage their calendars directly from their WordPress admin panel.<\/p>\n\n
Calendar Embedding (Public Display):<\/strong> The URL of the GroupCal calendar, as configured by the user in the shortcode or block attributes, is sent to GroupCal's servers every time a page containing the embedded calendar is loaded by a website visitor.<\/p><\/li>\n Admin Web Application (Management):<\/strong> When an administrator accesses the GroupCal settings page within the WordPress admin interface, the full GroupCal web application is loaded within an iframe. This allows the administrator to fully interact with GroupCal, including creating new calendars, adding and editing events, and managing their account. This means that all data entered and actions performed within the GroupCal web application while in the WordPress admin interface are subject to GroupCal's Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.<\/strong><\/p><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n Please note that GroupCal may independently collect usage data from visitors to the embedded calendar and from administrators using the web application within WordPress, governed by their own policies.<\/p>\n\n Install the Plugin:<\/p>\n\n Get the Embed Code for Your Calendar:<\/p>\n\n Embed the Calendar on Your Site:\n3.1 Using a Shortcode<\/p>\n\n 3.2 Using a Block Widget =<\/p>\n\n Sync with Mobile:<\/p>\n\n If you need to install the plugin manually (e.g., via FTP or a downloaded .zip file):\n - Download the GroupCal plugin file.\n - Go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin in your WordPress admin dashboard.\n - Upload the plugin file and click Install Now, then Activate.<\/p>\n\n\n GroupCal is a shared calendar platform that allows you to create, manage, and share calendars in real-time.
