This addon fills in the gap by adding the Events Block feature to The Events Calendar, making it compatible with Gutenberg.
If the client wants more control of the content and formattion I would consider the Pro version.
This plugin is a brilliant power-up that makes important features available in the free version of The Events Calendar.
Provides Gutenberg style blocks for the event calendar plugin.
This plugin was not very easy to navigate and seems to have a clunky interface. Since this is for use with The Events Calendar, it would have been better if its admin interface were in a sub-menu for The Events Calendar, rather than taking up real-estate on the main admin left-side menu. However, it is worth downloading this plugin to access the Events Shortcodes for the Events Calendar which is relatively manageable and provides several simple templates that work for most use-cases. I disabled this one after downloading the addon plugin “Events Shortcodes For The Events Calendar“
Upgrading to four stars. After a few months of use, I have to admit, it’s been useful. Still one star off for confusing admin interface.
This is only an events list block. It doesn’t enable Gutenberg block editing for all features of the single page template addon to The Events Calendar.
