A widget is a chunk of WildApricot functionality that you can embed into another website. Using a widget, you can embed a WildApricot event calendar – a list of current and past events from your WildApricot events database – on another website.

To embed a widget into another website, you copy the embed code then paste it into the other site's HTML code.
For steps to get a widget code, please view Getting the widget code.
Changing colors and fonts
To customize your embedded WildApricot widget so that it appears like a seamless part of your other website, you modify the appearance of the corresponding gadget in your WildApricot site. You can control the appearance of the widget by choosing a website theme, customizing the colors and styles, and for more advanced fine-tuning, using CSS customization.
