 * Hey Ron,
 * Here the instruction:
 * **File:** `appointment-calendar-shortcode.php`
    **File Path:** \plugins\appointment-
   calendar-v-2.7.1\
 * Find below code: (code line no 627)
 *     ```
       <!---Show appointment calendar--->
       <div id='calendar'>
        ...
        ...
        ...
       </div>
       ```
   
 * And remove the id=’calendar’ attribute from the <div> tag:
 *     ```
       <!---Show appointment calendar--->
       <div>
        ...
        ...
        ...
       </div>
       ```
   
 * Thanks

 * Thanks for responding farazfrank
    If I remove the id=’calender’ won’t that remove
   the calendar all together!? I still want the calendar and button that’s in the
   regular [APCAL], but on another page I just want the button. Thanks

 * i used this code, substitute “??” with the page id number u want the button on
   without the calender. file to modify :appointmentshortcode.php line: #632
 *  <!—Display Booking Instruction—>
    <?php if($AllCalendarSettings[‘apcal_booking_instructions’]){?
   > <div style=”color:red;” id=”bookinginstructions” align=”center”> <?php echo
   $AllCalendarSettings[‘apcal_booking_instructions’]; ?> </div> <?php } ?>
 *  <?php
    $pageID = get_the_ID(); if ($pageID == ??){?> <!—Schedule New New Appointment
   Button—> <div id=”bkbtndiv” align=”center” style=”padding:5px;”> <button name
   =”addappointment” class=”apcal_btn apcal_btn-primary” type=”submit” id=”addappointment”
   > <i class=”icon-calendar icon-white”></i> <?php if($AllCalendarSettings[‘booking_button_text’]){
   echo $AllCalendarSettings[‘booking_button_text’]; } else{ echo _e(“Schedule New
   Appointment”, “appointzilla”); } ?>
 *  </button>
    <?php }else{?> <!—Schedule New New Appointment Button—> <div id=”
   bkbtndiv” align=”center” style=”padding:5px;”> <button name=”addappointment” 
   class=”apcal_btn apcal_btn-primary” type=”submit” id=”addappointment”> <i class
   =”icon-calendar icon-white”></i> <?php if($AllCalendarSettings[‘booking_button_text’]){
   echo $AllCalendarSettings[‘booking_button_text’]; } else{ echo _e(“Schedule New
   Appointment”, “appointzilla”); } ?>
 *  </button>
    </div>
 *  <!—Show appointment calendar—>
    <div id=’calendar’>
 *  <?php }?>

 * hmm, i tried copying your code and inserting it into the text editor in Wp on
   the “Text” tab, and i changed the “??” to the same id as the page i pasted the
   code on, but i get 2 buttons that doesnt work and shows some sort of php code
   inside of the buttons -.-
 * i tried looking at appointment-calendar-shortcode.php line #632 but it says: 
   return false; so i think maybe we are using a differnet version of the calendar
   maybe? 🙁

 * it may not be exactly line #632 in your editor because mines is modified. but
   the line of code your looking for begins with the <——Display Booking Inscructions——
   >
    just look around the 600 area line of code, just looked it up it s line 606
   in appointment-calender-shortcode.
