AKAdvent-Theme

This theme transforms a standard blog into a dedicated digital advent calendar. It is designed for bloggers, communities, or organizations wanting to run a daily countdown event during the holiday season.

• Calendar-Focused Structure: Standard blog functions like search, archives, and category pages are disabled, ensuring the site operates solely as an advent calendar.
• Category-Based Calendars: Create separate calendars by using post categories. Display any calendar on a page using the provided [calendar category="slug"] shortcode.
• Automatic Date Handling: Posts within a category are automatically ordered by creation date. Missing dates up to 24 are filled with placeholders, and posts beyond 24 are appended below.
• Customizable Display: The layout uses a CSS grid for the calendar tiles, with different configurations for mobile and desktop views. You can apply custom CSS to rearrange the grid areas for varied visual designs.
• Guest Author Support: Includes a custom post field (guest-author) to specify an author for each calendar entry, overriding the standard post author.
