Excelent

Lovely, simple, Event plugin, excellent support, well written code. Just what I was looking for.
Cant say better than that.
Can’t sort the displayed list by date
by Matt Knowles·1 year ago
I would have thought a plugin designed to display events would at least be able to sort them either in ascending or descending order. Instead it displays them based on the date the event post was entered.
Also it displays an unneeded search field, and even though their FAQ has a shortcode example to hide it, I could not get that feature to work.
Not a usable solution and I deleted it.

It does exactly what it says

Fantastic, simple but effective plugin for your event calendar. I have paired it with forminator to add a booking form capability, and the two together form a rock solid solution.
It just works

Great Plugin that works right of the box. It has the best looking single event page we’ve seen, and we’ve tried 13 event calendar plugins. It takes some careful thinking, but changing the templates is pretty easy if one wants to do some customizations. A big “thank you” to Simple Planner!
