Answer:
Adding an Event Temple Calendar to your website is possible! This can be done by using our Calendar Integration or Zapier, which can send your Bookings to an external embeddable calendar. We recommend Google Calendar for this, however other external calendars may also have this capability.
Connect your Calendars
Option 1: Calendar Integration
Using the built-in Calendar Integration feature will allow you to link your Bookings and some Booking information to an external calendar. Read more about this feature and how to set it up here.
Bookings linked with your external calendar using this method will show information about the Bookings such as the name of the Booking.
Option 2: Zapier
Using Zapier, you can send Bookings to an external calendar and control how it will look in the calendar.
This is a good option for public calendars where you don't want to show sensitive Booking information or Booking names.
There are many ways you can setup Zapier to pass Booking information to an external calendar from Event Temple. One example is sending new Bookings to your external Calendar.
To start, please familiarize yourself with Zapier here and then connect your Event Temple account following the steps here.

Embed Your Calendar
An embeddable calendar is a third party calendar that has the option to be embedded on a website. There will typically be a piece of code that the calendar app will provide that you can put into your website to view your calendar. This step will need to be completed by a web developer or someone with access to make changes to your website.
An example of this in Google Calendar:
