External services

This plugin can optionally connect to third-party holiday APIs. These requests are off by default. They run only when an administrator enables “public holidays” under Calendar Notes. Results are cached in WordPress transients. API base URLs are fixed in the plugin (users cannot enter arbitrary URLs). If an API fails, the calendar still works; manual holiday lines remain available.
