 * Hi folks!
 * I’m currently using a theme that has its own events section. I’m not crazy about
   it so I want to replace it with The Events Calendar.
 * Here is my page:
    [http://new.communitycenter.org.tw/](http://new.communitycenter.org.tw/)
 * The events section you see on the home page is the one that comes with the theme.
   I want to replace that with The Events Calendar Widget. Is there a shortcode 
   I can use?
 * Looking at the editor I can put in a PHP code as well. Not sure if this is a 
   stupid question but is there a PHP code shortcode as well?
 * Thanks so much!

 * Hi Raptor2771,
 * At this time The Events Calendar does not have short codes. You might try [linking directly to The Events Calendar via your site’s menu](http://m.tri.be/mh),
   and not showing a link to the built-in calendar. If that doesn’t work, you’ll
   want to get in touch with your theme’s developer and see if there’s a way to 
   turn off the built in calendar, or if there’s another option that would work.
 * Good luck!
