Very surprised that this getting started guide doesn't showcase actually getting the calenders on a website so people can find the event.... All I see here is making an event in the backend.
Thank you for this plugin. I understand how to create the events and setup the user interface. However, your video does not explain how my audience actually can reach these pages. Do I have to create my own Page or Post to embed the permalink into? i don't see how to access the "Events List" from outside the plugin. I would like to add a menu Button for my "Events", but the plugin seems to override the "/events" slug. I would greatly appreciate your feedback. Thank you.
Unfortunately, I can only assume this is planned so you will have to purchase the Pro version of the plugin. Like the exclusion of the use of shortcodes in the free version.
How do you add it to your page? Is there a shortcode? Is it supposed to create its own menu item? I don't see any way on my site. I'm using the free version.
I can't connect my event to the events heading.When I hit events I get "The server cannot be found". Do you have a video for that? Thanks so much. You're videos are easy to follow and quick.
This was helpful, but it still doesn't show me how to add this to my header so people can find this page without a direct link. I now have a calendar that is not accessible for new traffic to my site..
When we go to add a new event, we're not seeing The Events Calendar section below. We bought/used the plug-in before, and it worked fine, but then we cancelled for whatever reason. Now that we have it again, it's not showing the bottom half, as mentioned. We tried deactivating/re-activating; delete and re-install but with no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks
when I made a test event and viewed it from another browser (so I was not signed in) - I could see a button at the bottom right of the listing called "Add Calendar". Clicking on that opens up a listing of "google calendar, io something, outlook, and like 5 other things". I can't see that button in elementor and I don't see it in settings or anything in the "events" sections on the WP control panel. IS THERE ANY WAY TO DELETE THAT?
I don't know how anyone else figured out where the EVENTS menu item came from but I found it in APPEARANCE | ADD MENU ITEMS | EVENTS. I was looking in pages or creating my own page and looking for the shortcode to add to the page. I watched two videos and no one is explaining that.
Hi, You seam to have a lot of plugins. What theme did you use? Do you have a page builder? What customisation / CSS di you do? The map for me from basic install was very small and not at all like your install. Thanks
I cannot get my description to display like in the example in this video. I am using photo view. It has everything I want displaying but the description does not display. Cannot find a setting that controls that. ???
I used your plugin for a couple of months but as the menus were complicated for me I migrated to Modern Events Calendar. I like it more, however yours was brilliant too. It was a matter of taste only.
I got the events plugin added to my website - quite by mistake. I could not find any way to actually get it on. One video said to make a page and then drag the widget from the events group of stuff by clicking events at the top. in other words , that would open a panel on the left and you could drag the events square onto your page. You had to make a page first. So I made a page called "Events", but it just automatically became the events page - I did not need to drag anything. Ok - no problem. However, when I made a test event and viewed it from another browser (so I was not signed in) - I could see a button at the bottom right of the listing called "Add Calendar". Clicking on that opens up a listing of "google calendar, io something, outlook, and like 5 other things". I can't see that button in elementor and I don't see it in settings or anything in the "events" sections on the WP control panel. IS THERE ANY WAY TO DELETE THAT? I want to upgrade to PRO, but I'm sure glad I actually tested out the free version before paying money for this button that just doesn't seem to be able to be deleted. Please help.
This is an usual question. Can you create an event set in the past? (Date is passed). In case you need to show previous events for archive purposes. Situation : the client changed its calendar system and plugin but we need to show previous events as Legacy.
I have been looking everywhere to find out how I create a webpage to display the events! This shows how to enter them but how the hell do you display them???
Very Nice Tutorial. Thank you. Is there a way to add the "Events" as a Menu on the website Menu Bar and then list individual events underneath that with links to individual events?
I just want a recurring event, every Wednesday 5:30 - 8:30 pm beginning 7/3/24, ending 8/29/24 shown on a 2-month calendar. WP makes it unnecessarily difficult.
Hola, hago los cambios para personalizar los colores de mi web pero no consigo que queden guardados, realice la construccion con Themify puede ser que tenga algo que ver?
Please update the video to explain how to add the "calendar" to a page. And also if using Divi, provide a link to your Divi extension. To all those frustrated users (maybe it is only me) - all you need to do add a calendar to a page is to add the slug (without quotes) "events" to a page using quick edit.
@@maryamali2981 What I did with the free version was adding it to my menu: 1. Change the URL Slug (find it in Events>Settings>View) 2. Go to appearance > Menu > Custom Links 3. Paste the new URL for your calendar > Name it Calendar > Add to menu I wanted a separate page for my calendar, but with the free version you unfortunately can't use the shortcode to add it to a page, so I did it like this, hope it helps..
I purchased the Pro version but it never said on the site that it works ONLY with the Twenty Seventeen theme! I switched to the Kadence theme and the calendar does NOT work!! Waste of money!
One of my favorite plugins and of course, my lovely Kori Ashton. By the way, I have also prepared a video tutorial about the Events Calendar plugin on my channel.
Hi, can this be added to a social media website where users can create their own events? I would like them to be able to receive requests from people that want to attend the event and the creator of the event can accept or decline.
Why isn't there a clear way to place this thing on an existing page without coding magic on my part?? Do i have to link the damn thing everytime i want someone else to see it??
Why is there no possibility to duplicate events? One button, one function ... in "modern events calendar" version 6.5.1. And it's a much more convenient function than many other functions ...
You'll need to add a Google Maps API key for this: theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/setting-up-your-google-maps-api-key/ If you run into trouble, reach out to our support team: theeventscalendar.com/support/
Seriously? You can't change the FONT COLOR???? HELLO!!!! What if I have a BLACK BACKGROUND?????? I just don't understand. Why would you NOT have this capability OBVIOUSLY AVAILABLE?
Maybe using custom CSS? I use Google Developer Tools to inspect items all the time to identify ids or classes so I can modify them with custom CSS. Usually works for me.
Please include font color with your customizations. DERP DERP Kind of like having a steering column with your car. Or a button with your shirt or a belt with your pants. You KNOW....FONT COLOR OF THE DESCRIPTION TEXT??????? COMMON FEATURES WORKS FOR ME!!!! PLEASE AI LOOK AT THIS......... Millions upon millions of WASTED hours. When things made sense. Is there something in the water at every coding school in the country? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!!!!!! ONE BIT OF SOFTWARE IN HISTORY????? JUST ONE MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!!!!
RED LINKS!!!!! HOW NICE!!!! NOW WHAT ABOUT THE TEXT??????? HELLO MCFLY ONE SHOULD INFORM YOU OF THE OTHER!!!! DID YOU JUST FORGET????? My GAWD how do people just accept such garbage. And you want to get me to pay YOU? Try getting the basics done first.

I love it when explainer videos are clear like this!
One of the best method of straight to the point explanation without extra talking, really professional, thanks a lot.
Nice Tutorial, Is there a shortcode to add on a page? Or can one add it as a widget on its own designed page? Thanks in advance

Use the url when you are in calendar view to create custom navigation items.
How does visitors can find the events page inside of my website? or how can i add them to the menu in the website?
whats the solution for this ? please?
How can I add this plugin to existing page or theme?
This plugin has it's own CPT
How do you add it to your page? Is there a shortcode? Is it supposed to create its own menu item? I don't see any way on my site. I'm using the free version.
Strangely, shortcodes are excluded in the free version.

nice vid how do you the full calendar on the webpage and how do create so an event goes twice a week for say a year
Do you need to have a wordpress website to set up the calendar?
As a broadcaster, thanks to your plugin, I can post a guide showing what will be on the shows and a link to the channel. Surely viewers will love it.
When we go to add a new event, we're not seeing The Events Calendar section below. We bought/used the plug-in before, and it worked fine, but then we cancelled for whatever reason. Now that we have it again, it's not showing the bottom half, as mentioned. We tried deactivating/re-activating; delete and re-install but with no luck. Any suggestions? Thanks
Can you not change the detail color without having the Pro version?
Please update the video as the setting on the customization section has changed in new versions of the event calendar.
Wow you made that look so easy. Many thanks and can't wait to get that plugin!
Can I show in this Max participants and how many registered so far?
How did you get rid of the sidebar?
Is there any way to specify the time zone? PT, MT, CT, ET?
What about the text of the event color? What about if your background is black? Seems like I can't use it since customization options are so few.
Does the pro version of Events Calendar and Tickets and RSVP come with notifications for the organizer and attendees?

LIFE SAVER!!! Thank you so much. I was very frustrated that I now had an event page no one could find...
OK, but that is troublesome. Why not, in the least, allow the free version to be added to whatever page you want?
Hi, You seam to have a lot of plugins. What theme did you use? Do you have a page builder? What customisation / CSS di you do? The map for me from basic install was very small and not at all like your install. Thanks
Is it possible to have overlapping events in free version? I need at least 10 simultaneous events every weekend.
I cannot get my description to display like in the example in this video. I am using photo view. It has everything I want displaying but the description does not display. Cannot find a setting that controls that. ???
Great .... but how do you add it to a page?
How can I see all my events in a list view - that includes past events?
I used your plugin for a couple of months but as the menus were complicated for me I migrated to Modern Events Calendar. I like it more, however yours was brilliant too. It was a matter of taste only.
