Plugin / Quicket API Plugin

Installation

To install the plugin:

1. Install and activate the plugin from the Plugins menu in WordPress
2. Navigate to the Widgets menu option in WordPress
3. Drag the Quicket widget into an active widget area (e.g. Main Widget Area)

To configure the widget:

1. Choose whether to show public or saved events
2. In order to use the plugin, you will need an API key. To obtain an API key, you need to register at http://developer.quicket.co.za .
3. To use the saved events mode, you will also need a Quicket user token. This can be found in your Quicket account. It is used to identify and authenticate you so that the plugin can retrieve events you have saved on Quicket.
4. You can enter the number of events to display at any given time. The higher the number, the longer the feed will take to show, so 5 – 10 would be a good starting point.
5. To limit your feed to events in a certain category, enter a comma separated list of category ID’s found on Quicket, e.g. 13,40,2
6. If you are a Quicket affiliate, you can enter your affiliate code in the widget setup. That will automatically add your affiliate code onto all the events in the feed.
7. If you’d only like to pull recent events in your feed, you can specify a last modified date. If specified, only events that were modified on Quicket after that date will be shown on your feed.
8. If you’d like a paged list of events, check the “Show Pagination” check box. This will add a paging control to the bottom of the feed. The number of events you specified previously will then be the number of events shown per page.
