A WordPress plugin to show a list of upcoming events on the front-end as widget.
Step 1: Creating events
After installing and activating the plugin, a new custom post type called “Events” will appear at your WordPress Admin area.
Just create your events from the “Events” menu.
Step 2: Using on Gutenberg Block Editor (WordPress 5.0 or later)
If you are using block editor, add a new page and search for ‘Upcoming Events Lists’, set necessary options as your requirement.
Save and view you page. All done!
Step 3: Shortcode (When you cannot use step 2)
Add a new page and paste the following shortcode where you want to display the events:
[upcoming_events_list]
The shortcode can include following attributes.
view_type: Default value list. Value can be …Simple and best event plugin. Easy to use. Thanks bro!
I noticed that after installing it shows up as Event plugin in dashboard. When you try to create an event it shows up the title All in one events . If you have installed All in one events by Timely, then this widget picksup randomly events from that All in one events calendar. I was looking for a second event calendar on my website and so this event calendar is not helping as I mentioned , it picks and lists events from All in one Events Calendar randomly.
Also this event calendar has disabled start time and end time that you see on All-in One calendar. I suggest you consider the original all-in-one calendar by Timely instead of this less functional calendar because the security updates done on All-in-one calendar may not get carried over to this new plugin.
Fortunately when I deleted this calendar, it did not delete the events in my All- in-one calendar.
Hi and thank’s for this nice plugin.
I’ve made a frensh translation for this plugin, here is the download link:
Simple, without unnecessary frills, easy to implement and customization – for people like me, who likes to dig inside the code 🙂
This plugin does just what it says, no more no less.
(If “View All Events” displayed list of events sorted by date of event (rather than time posted) it would be even better.)
Nice, tidy, easy to use, I like it!
