Displaying Events on Your Site

There are two ways to display today's Herodotus events:

Option 1: Shortcode

Add the following shortcode to any post, page, or text widget:

[herodotus]

This will display all events matching today's date.

Option 2: Gutenberg Block

  1. Edit any page or post in the block editor.
  2. Click the + (block inserter) button.
  3. Search for "Herodotus".
  4. Add the Herodotus Events block.
  5. Configure layout and other options in the block sidebar.

Where Can I Place Events?

  • Regular Pages
  • Posts
  • Widget Areas (sidebar, footer)
  • Page builder modules (Elementor, Divi, etc.)
  • Any area that supports shortcodes or blocks
