Start Me Up Ryerson: A great WordPress calendar integration

The event calendar on StartMeUpRyerson uses the Eventbrite API to list certain events on the community calendar. The ones from Eventbrite, in blue, are Start Me Up’s official events and those in gray are community-added. This is a great example of PHP, Javascript working with WordPress and the Eventbrite API to deliver a custom solution for the Ryerson community.

TIP: On mouseover of the Eventbrite event, the integration requests more data from Eventbrite (title, time, where, description, image) and displays that data in a pop-up. You can then go from the calendar to Eventbrite to buy tickets.
