I love it when explainer videos are clear like this!

[mahdiehssani]

One of the best method of straight to the point explanation without extra talking, really professional, thanks a lot.

[Wooshka_DB]

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.

Please update the video as the setting on the customization section has changed in new versions of the event calendar.

How does visitors can find the events page inside of my website? or how can i add them to the menu in the website?

[RGMPhotos]

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.

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.

Wow you made that look so easy. Many thanks and can't wait to get that plugin!

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.

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

[altaraystar]

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..

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.

Awesome video and plugin! This will help our small church so much!

[dwhitexrp]

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.

[shrutibirajdar]

How can I add this plugin to existing page or theme?

[bbernard]

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???

[lisacurry]

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.

[dwhitexrp]

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.

[RoyRossi]

[Betweenplays]
