I want to call the upcoming events in sidebar.php file without using widget?

Question

Hi I am using All in one event calender for my website. I want to show the upcoming events in sidebar of page without using widget(means it provides the drag and drop widget but i don't want to use that), i want to call the function of upcoming events in 'sidebar.php' and show upcoming events on page?

How can i do that?

Thanks in advance.

You can execute the shortcode of your plugin directly in the sidebar.php template file. Edit sidebar.php and add the following code where you want the event calendar to appear: <?php echo do_shortcode('[ai1ec view="monthly"]'); ?> You must replace the code between single quote with your desired plugin shortcode. You maybe have to play a little bit with the code, depending on the theme you use. I am ready to help if you have any problems.
