Description

Nuage Business Calendar is a lightweight, clean, and easy-to-use business calendar plugin developed by Nuage Creative. It allows you to display a simple calendar on your website and mark specific days (such as regular holidays, business events, or special days) with elegant colored circles.

No complex booking systems, no heavy CSS—just a beautiful, minimalist calendar.

🌟 Key Features

  • Simple Click-to-Mark Interface: Just click on a date in the admin panel to toggle a circle.
  • Customizable Styles: Create up to 10 different circle styles with your own labels (e.g., Red for “Holidays”, Blue for “Events”) and custom colors.
  • National Holiday Import: Instantly import public holidays for specific countries (Japan, US, UK, France, Canada, etc.) via JSON files.
  • Flexible Shortcode: Easily display the calendar anywhere using the [nbcal_calendar] shortcode. You can also add a custom title like [nbcal_calendar title="Business Day Calendar"].
  • One-Click Shortcode Copy: The admin settings page includes a ready-to-use shortcode box — enter an optional title and copy the finished shortcode with a single click.
  • Today Highlight: Mark the current day automatically with an Outer Ring or Underline marker, based on your WordPress timezone setting.
  • Clickable Date Links: Turn any circle style into a link (a Default URL for every date it marks), or override the destination for one specific date. Choose whether links open in the same tab, a new tab, or a new tab only for external sites.
  • Smart Navigation Limits: Prevent users from clicking too far into the past or future by setting navigation limits (e.g., allow navigating only 3 months ahead).
  • Legend Toggle: Choose whether to show or hide the legend below the calendar. Even if hidden, hover tooltips will show the label name!
  • Multilingual Ready: Fully internationalized. English, Japanese, and French translations are supported.

How do I display the calendar with a title?

You can use the title attribute in the shortcode. For example:
[nbcal_calendar title=”Store Schedule”]

How do I copy the shortcode?

Go to Settings > Nuage Business Calendar. At the top of the page you’ll find a Shortcode box — optionally enter a calendar title, then click “Copy” to copy the ready-to-use shortcode to your clipboard.

How do I highlight today’s date on the calendar?

Go to Settings > Nuage Business Calendar > Display Settings, and set “Today Marker” to “Outer Ring” or “Underline”.

How do I make a date link to another page?

On the settings page, switch to Link Mode above the calendar editor. Click any date that already has a circle mark to select it, then enter a URL and click “Apply Link” — this overrides the link for that date only. To link every date under a given circle style at once, set a “Default URL” on that style instead, under Circle Design & Legend Labels.

Can I control whether links open in a new tab?

Yes. Go to Settings > Nuage Business Calendar > Display Settings, and set “Link Target” to “Same Tab”, “New Tab”, or “New Tab for External Links Only”.

How do I add my own country’s holidays?

You can easily add your own holidays! Just create a JSON file named holidays-[country-code]-[year].json (e.g., holidays-de-2026.json for Germany 2026) and upload it to the plugin’s /data/ directory via FTP. It will automatically appear in the import dropdown. The file should contain a _region_name key and date entries in YYYY-MM-DD format.

Can I hide the labels/legend under the calendar?

Yes. Go to Settings > Nuage Business Calendar > Display Settings, and set “Show Legend” to “No”. Users can still see the label name by hovering over the colored circle on the calendar.

  • Added: “Link Target” display setting to control whether links open in the same tab, a new tab, or a new tab only for external sites.
  • Fixed: Uninstalling the plugin now removes all of its settings, including options added since 1.1.0.

  • Added: Shortcode box on the admin settings page with a calendar title input and a one-click copy button.
