## Embed a single event or a list of events in your webpage
{: .no_toc }

You can embed a list of filtered events or a specific event card in your webpage using a classic old-school `iframe` or a shiny new webcomponent.

1. TOC
{:toc}
## Webcomponents
[Webcomponents](https://www.webcomponents.org/introduction) usage requires a small (~5kB gzipped) js script to be loaded in your page (note that you should use your instance name):
```html
<script src='https://demo.gancio.org/gancio-events.es.js'></script>
```

### Embed a single event
To embed an event in webpages you use `<gancio-event>` custom element, you can copy the required code in **event's page > Embed > Copy**, should be like the following:

```html
<gancio-event id=17 baseurl='https://demo.gancio.org'></gancio-event>
```

<script src='/assets/js/gancio-events.es.js'></script>
<gancio-event id=17 baseurl='https://demo.gancio.org'></gancio-event>  


### Embed event lists
You can also embed a list of events using `<gancio-events>` custom element, you can copy the required code in **Export > List > Copy**


```html
<gancio-events baseurl='https://gancio.cisti.org'>
  <a href='https://gancio.cisti.org'>Gancio Events</a>
</gancio-events>
```

<script>
  var theme = 'light';
  var sidebar = 'true';
  function toggleDark() {
    var items = document.getElementsByTagName('gancio-events');
    theme = theme === 'dark' ? 'light' : 'dark';
    items[0].setAttribute('theme', theme );
  }

  function toggleSidebar() {
    var items = document.getElementsByTagName('gancio-events');
    sidebar = sidebar === 'true' ? 'false' : 'true';
    items[0].setAttribute('sidebar', sidebar );
  }


  function changeMax(value) {
    var items = document.getElementsByTagName('gancio-events');
    items[0].setAttribute('maxlength', value);
  }

  function changeTitle (title) {
    var items = document.getElementsByTagName('gancio-events');
    items[0].setAttribute('title', title)
  }
</script>

<style>
  label {
    display: block;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 10px;
  }
</style>
<label><input type='checkbox' onchange="toggleDark()"/> Dark</label>
<label><input type='checkbox' checked onchange="toggleSidebar()"/> Sidebar</label>
<label>Max items <input value=4 type='number' label='Max items' onchange="changeMax(this.value)"/></label>
<label>Title <input value='Gancio' type='text' onkeyup="changeTitle(this.value)"/></label>
<gancio-events sidebar='true' title='Gancio' theme='light' maxlength=4 baseurl='https://gancio.cisti.org'><a href='https://gancio.cisti.org'>Gancio Events</a></gancio-events>  

> info "Customize"
> Note that you can modify the title (or completely remove it using an empty `title` param),
> you can limit the list to a maximum number of events using the `maxlength` parameter and filter events by `tags` or `places` using that parameters (it's easier using **gancio** than to explain it here)


## IFrame
You can also use the old iframe method
<iframe src='https://demo.gancio.org/embed/17' style="width: 410px; border: none; height: 210px; overflow: hidden;"></iframe>

```html
<iframe src='https://demo.gancio.org/embed/17' style="width: 410px; border: none; height: 210px; overflow: hidden;"></iframe>
```


## Wordpress
To embed an event or a list of events into a [WordPress](https://wordpress.com) website you can use the [WPGancio](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wpgancio/) plugin, this allows you to use webcomponents and shortcodes and automatically includes the needed script in each page and post.
