Archives widget that makes your monthly/daily archives look like a calendar on the sidebar.

== Description ==

Archives widget that make your monthly/daily archives look like a calendar on the sidebar. If you have a lot of archives that takes a lot of space on your sidebar this widget is for you. Display your archives as a compact calendar, entirely customizable with CSS.

= **PLEASE FEEDBACK** =
I'm alone to test this plugin before release and I can't test everything with particular configurations or on different versions of WordpPress, **your feedback is precious.**

= **BEFORE UPDATING FROM v.0.4.7** =
* **BACKUP YOUR CSS CHANGES BEFORE UPDATING!** All changes made ​​in any css file of the plugin file will be lost.
* **HTML STRUCTURE CHANGES**, your custom CSS **will not** be applied correctly. I recommend you to install it on a test website to adapt your css to the new structure.

= **AFTER UPDATING FROM v0.4.7** =
* **NEW WIDGET SETTINGS!** Check the widget settings in 'Appearence->Widgets' after the update
* Check the settings of the plugin to be sure everything is OK.

= Features =

* Displays monthly archives as a compact year calendar
* Displays daily archives as a compact month calendar
* Show/hide monthly post count
* 8 themes included (with .less files)
* 2 Custom themes taht keep your CSS styles even after the plugin update
* Choose a different theme for each widget
* Show widget with previous/current/next or last available month
* Category select. Show post only from selected categories
* Custom post_type support
* Entirely customizable with CSS
* .PO/.MO Localisation (Fançais, Deutsch, Español, Portugues, Simplified Chinese, Serbo-Croatian)
* Shortcode support
* jQuery animated with possibility to use your own JS code.

**Not just a widget**, if your theme does not support widgets, you can use this calendar by calling its **function**:

`archive_calendar();`

you can also configure it:
$defaults = array(
    'next_text' => '˃',
    'prev_text' => '˂',
    'post_count' => true,
    'month_view' => true,
    'month_select' => 'default',
    'different_theme' => 0, // set 1 (true) if you want to set a different theme for this widget
    'theme' => null, // theme 'name' if 'different_theme' == true
    'categories' => null, // array() -> list of categories to show
    'post_type' => null // array() -> list of post types to show
);
archive_calendar($args);`

**next_text:** text showing on the next year button, can be empty or HTML to use with Font Awesome for example.

**prev_text:** just like `next_text` but for previous year button.

**post_count:** `true` to show the number of posts for each month, `false` to hide it. If you hide post count with CSS, set to false to avoid counting posts uselessly.

**month_view:** `true` to show months instead of years archives, false by default.

**month_select:** `default` shows the last month available with at least one post. Also `prev`, `next` or `current`.

**SHORTCODE SUPPORT**
Use the shortcode to show Archives Calendar in the text widget or in a page:
`[arcalendar next_text=>'>' prev_text=>'<' post_count=>"true" month_view=>"true" "categories"=>"category1, category2", post_type=>"post, forum"]`

*In some cases the support of shortcodes in the text widget has to be activated in the plugin settings*


= Notes =

By default, the plugin will include jQuery library and its default css file into your theme. **If your theme already uses jQuery, you should disable it the plugin's Settings.**
