FAQ

Are there any troubleshooting steps you’d suggest I try that might resolve my issue before I post a new thread?

First, make sure that you’re running the latest version of The Events Calendar. If you’re running Events Calendar PRO or any other add-ons, make sure those are current / running the latest code as well.

The most common issues we see are either plugin or theme conflicts. You can test if a plugin or theme is conflicting by manually deactivating other plugins until just The Events Calendar is running on your site. If the issue persists from there, revert to the default Twenty Twenty theme. If the issue is resolved after deactivating a specific plugin or your theme, you’ll know that is the source of the conflict.

Note that we aren’t going to say “tough luck” if you identify a plugin/theme conflict. While we can’t guarantee 100% integration with any plugin or theme out there, we will do our best (and reach out the plugin/theme author as needed) to figure out a solution that benefits everyone.

I’m still stuck. Where do I go to file a bug or ask a question?

Users of the free The Events Calendar should post their questions in the plugin’s WordPress.org forum, which we visit about once a week. Please make sure to read our sticky post providing an overview of the support we provide free users BEFORE posting. If you find you’re not getting support in as timely a fashion as you wish, you might want to consider purchasing a license for Events Calendar Pro.

If you’re already an Events Calendar Pro user, you’re entitled access to our actively-monitored Premium Support on our website. We can provide a deeper level of support here and hit these forums on a daily basis during the work week. Generally, except in times of increased support loads, we reply to all tickets within 24-48 hours during the business week.

What’s the difference between The Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro?

The Events Calendar is our cornerstone plugin, and it’s required in order to run any of our premium calendar add-ons, including Events Calendar Pro, Community Events, Filter Bar, and others.

In other words, Events Calendar Pro runs alongside The Events Calendar and enhances it with extra features, including recurring events, additional calendar views, calendar shortcodes, advanced widgets, custom event fields and more.

What add-ons are available for The Events Calendar, and where can I read more about them?

The following add-ons are available for The Events Calendar:

  • Events Calendar Pro, for adding premium calendar features like recurring events, advanced views, cool widgets, shortcodes, additional fields, and more!
  • Event Aggregator, a service that effortlessly fills your calendar with events from Meetup, Google Calendar, iCalendar, Eventbrite, CSV, and ICS.
  • Virtual Events, which optimizes your calendar for virtual events including Zoom integration, video and livestream embeds, SEO optimization for online events and more.
  • Event Tickets (free), which allows you to sell tickets and collect RSVPs to events. It can run alongside The Events Calendar or as a standalone plugin that adds ticket and RSVP functionality to WordPress posts and pages.
  • Event Tickets Plus, which allows you to sell tickets for your events using your favorite e-commerce platform.
  • Event Tickets Wallet Plus, for adding digital tickets like Apple Wallet passes and PDF tickets.
  • Promoter, automated email communication made just for The Events Calendar and Event Tickets. Stay in touch with your attendees every step of the way.
  • Community Events, for allowing frontend event submission from your readers.
  • Community Tickets, which allows event organizers to sell tickets to the events they submit via Community Events.
  • Filter Bar, for adding advanced frontend filtering capabilities to your events calendar.
  • Eventbrite Tickets, for selling tickets to your event directly through Eventbrite.

Can I import events to my calendar?

Yes! The Events Calendar has a built-in CSV import tool. If you want to step it up and automatically import events from Google Calendar, Meetup, Eventbrite and more, check out Event Aggregator.

How do I sell tickets to events on my calendar?

You’ll want to use our Event Tickets plugin for that. This free plugin works alongside The Events Calendar and lets you create RSVPs and tickets for events. Event Tickets integrates with PayPal so you can collect payments for tickets, while our premium solution, Event Tickets Plus fully integrates with WooCommerce or Easy Digital Downloads. If you want to include digital tickets like Apple Wallet passes and PDF tickets check out Event Tickets Wallet Plus.

Can I have more than one calendar on my site?

Unfortunately, no. However, you can use event categories or tags to create calendar views that only display certain events. For example, you could create a direct link to a calendar view that only shows events categorized as “Fitness,” like this example from our demo site.

With Events Calendar Pro, you can use shortcodes to embed your calendar on other WordPress pages and posts, then filter that calendar by category.

Can I allow people to submit events to my calendar?

This is available with the Community Events add-on to facilitate submissions. Install Community Events alongside The Events Calendar and a page will be added to your WordPress site with a form that visitors can use to submit events. As the calendar owner, you have full control over whether event submissions are published immediately or require moderation first.

If you want to let users sell tickets for the events they submit, check out Community Tickets. It runs with The Events Calendar, Community Events, and Event Tickets and empowers visitors to create and sell tickets, splitting the profits with you.

What’s the difference between The Events Calendar and Events Calendar Pro

I’ve been using this plugin for a year. I wanted to be able to use the widget, so I purchased pro at a discounted rate. At the time, the full rate was $99. It worked fine. I used it to display when I attend craft fairs, and when I am running a workshop day – about 10 events per year. I have now received an email to renew it, and it has gone up BY 50% to $149. Add tax too, and it’s a massive increase. Too much for me. I don’t use any exciting features. All I need is a calendar and the ability to display it nicely as a widget. I’m a small business, a sole trader, so this is far too much of a price increase for the year for me, unfortunately. Update – thank you for your reply. I had already replied to the renewal email,. and they did kindly offer a discount, but since this is something I need going forward, I think it’s better to find a plugin that will suit me long term. Your plugin is good – but it’s much more than I need, I simply don’t use all the features. I would be happy to pay for a plugin that has less features at a lower premium. Thanks all the same.

Support can be a little slow, but the pluins are soo worth it! We use this for several clients and it has been amazing! Completely recommend!

Great suppport from Jes @ The Events Calendar! We are using the free version, but nevertheless, the support was outstanding. I highly recommend both the plugins (calendar + tickets) and the support team

I have been working with Atousa and Andras to solve a problem with category subscriptions for several weeks (ranging from setting up staging site testing to reviewing our hosting setup) and they both showed an absolutely desire to resolve what seemed be a very complex problem (but desperately needed by my client). After several weeks of unsuccessful results Andras verified that the calendar was now working correctly and after testing happily verified the problem had been resolved. It is easy for plugin developers to say the problem is at the client level and leave it at that but working as a team with us lead to the best result. Thanks again for all you help and sticking with this problem. We really enjoy The Events Calendar and use it on any project where the client needs a great Event/Calendar system. Cheers, Peter Beare, Bear Web Design
