Use ScheduleBuilder with WordPress
Use the Schedule Builder Online WordPress plugin to display a published schedule with a shortcode containing its public token.
Before you begin
- Sign in to a ScheduleBuilder account, then install and activate the Schedule Builder Online plugin on your WordPress site
- Publish the schedule in ScheduleBuilder to create its public token
- Have permission to edit the WordPress page or post where the schedule belongs
- 1
Install the Schedule Builder Online plugin
In WordPress administration, install and activate Schedule Builder Online. WordPress needs this plugin to recognize the ScheduleBuilder shortcode and render the public schedule.

Publish the schedule in ScheduleBuilder
Open the intended schedule, select Share, and publish it. Publishing creates the public token used as the shortcode id; without it, WordPress has no public schedule to display.
- 3
Copy the shortcode
In the Share modal’s WordPress section, copy the generated shortcode. Its basic form is `[schedule_builder id="TOKEN"]`, where TOKEN is the public token for the published schedule, not the schedule name.

Add a Shortcode block
Edit the WordPress page or post, add a Shortcode block where the schedule should appear, and paste the shortcode. Save or update the page, then view it to confirm the schedule loads.

Add optional locale and title settings
Add `locale="xx"` to choose the public interface locale and `show_title="false"` to hide the title. For example: `[schedule_builder id="TOKEN" locale="en" show_title="false"]`.
Next steps
View the published WordPress page as a visitor and verify the locale and title settings. Keep the shortcode token current if you ever unpublish and republish the schedule.
