Embedding your events
Available in the Enterprise plan. View plans
What this covers
Showing your events on your own website. Needs the Events feature and the manage-settings permission.
The options
- The events widget — a script that draws your published events straight into your page, with dates and booking, no frame.
- An iframe embed of your events list, or of a single event.
- A plain link to
/whats-on/your-restaurant.
The widget is the best of the three for a "What's On" page: it looks like part of your site and adapts to the width you give it.
Which to use where
| Where | Use |
|---|---|
| A "What's On" page on your website | The widget — the whole list, always current. |
| Promoting one event | A link to that event's own page — better for sharing and for social previews. |
| Instagram, Facebook, an email | The plain link. You cannot embed anything in those. |
Good to know
- It stays current on its own. Publish an event and it appears; a date sells out and it shows as sold out. Nothing to update on your website.
- Only published events appear — drafts stay private.
- Bookings behave identically to ones made on your Tabledoo event page.
- Embedded copies are kept out of search results, so they do not compete with your own event pages.
