User sentiment analysis

Users appreciate the WordPress plugin for its ease of use, flexibility, and extensive customization options, especially for developers. It integrates well with other tools like Elementor and Advanced Custom Fields, allowing for detailed personalization of event displays. Users find the recurring event features and the ability to color-code events helpful, and appreciate the robust documentation and shortcode options provided for custom templates. However, significant drawbacks include compatibility issues with the latest WordPress and PHP 8.x versions, bugs, poor support, and the plugin’s impact on site speed. Some users also report incomplete functionality and limited support for non-paying customers.

I am going to delete this plug in. You cannot change dates. You cannot change times. You cannot copy events. You cannot exclude dates within repeating events. This plug in is full of bugs.

I need just a basic calendar, so I can add events (color coded by category) that people can just see. Very simple needs. This product does that for free. Easy to set up, so far it has been working just fine. It let me import my events from an ICS file, which was helpful, as that is how I was able to get my data from the plugin that I was using, which used to be free but now charges a fee. Only hassle was that all events came in as drafts, so I had to republish them. Not a big deal, other than that I had a LOT of events

So far loving it! Just digging in and seeing that we now have a calendar system that allows advanced recurring events (even in the free version). WordPress template theming. No bloat. no jQuery. Looks like it will be easy to add ACF, costume taxonomies, etc… Finally! Why did it take me so long to find this plugin? Thought I tried all of them. Was just about to give up and build out a calendar from scratch. Thanks! This topic was modified 3 years, 1 month ago by Sunny.
