Use URL parameters to link to Dateful Eventlink
You can link to Dateful Eventlink without using our form and instead using parameters in the URL. This is handy if you want to programatically include links many times throughout a website. The following features, however, are not available using this method: event description, event URL, add to calendar, recurring dates, and custom image.
Parameter values must be URL encoded. In our documentation, however, we show both unencoded and encoded values for clarity.
These examples show the many ways you can link to Dateful Eventlink.

This sets the name of the event at the top of the page. You can also set this using msg instead of title.

The tz parameter can be the long name of any timezone from the dropdown menu on Dateful.
