Comment (by vineet2003):

 We want to make the IDs used in the get_calendar() function unique to
 avoid duplicates when multiple calendars are shown on the same page. We'll
 also allow developers to customize these IDs if needed.


 Can we do something like this ?
 {{{
 // The get_calendar() function generates a calendar in HTML with specific
 IDs for the table and today's date cell.
 // However, if multiple calendars are displayed on the same page, these
 IDs could be duplicated, causing issues.
 // To prevent this, we use the wp_unique_id() function to create unique
 IDs for each calendar element.
 // Additionally, we provide filters that allow developers to customize
 these IDs if needed.

 // Generate unique IDs for the calendar elements
 $calendar_table_id = apply_filters('get_calendar_table_id', 'wp-calendar-'
 . wp_unique_id());
 $today_cell_id = apply_filters('get_calendar_today_id', 'today-' .
 wp_unique_id());

 // Example of how these IDs might be used in the HTML
 $calendar_html = '<table id="' . esc_attr($calendar_table_id) . '">';
 $calendar_html .= '<tr><td id="' . esc_attr($today_cell_id) .
 '">Today</td></tr>';
 $calendar_html .= '</table>';

 return $calendar_html;
 }}}
