About ChronoFlo Calendar

ChronoFlo Calendar is online calendar software for displaying events or managing your life. It comes with a number of beautiful hand-designed themes and features a pioneering timeline-based navigation. Plus, it offers unrivalled customisation options to help you create a calendar that perfectly matches your brand.

How our Wordpress plugin works

Our Wordpress plugin offers an easy way of embedding your ChronoFlo calendars into your Wordpress site. It provides a shortcode that you can paste into a Wordpress page or blog post to embed your calendar.

Please note that you will need your own installation or a third-party installation of Wordpress for our plugin to work. The plugin won't work with sites hosted on www.wordpress.com because Wordpress does not allow iFrames on those sites.
