The Events Calendar - Community Events

The plugin adds a front-end submission form so community members can send event details and images without requiring site owners to enter each event themselves. Submissions can be published right away or held for review, giving administrators a choice about how events are checked before appearing on the calendar.

Site owners can allow anonymous submissions or require contributors to register. The form can appear on its automatically generated page or be embedded elsewhere on the site with a shortcode. Organizers can also submit ticketed events through integrations with Event Tickets Plus and WooCommerce, with options for collecting fees or splitting ticket proceeds.

Features

• Front-end event submissions: Visitors can submit events through a form on your WordPress site, including event details and images for review or publication.
• Publishing and review controls: Choose whether submitted events go live immediately or wait for review, so site administrators can oversee calendar content.
• Flexible contributor access: Allow anonymous event submissions or require contributors to register before they can post events.
• Form placement options: Use the generated submission page or place the event form elsewhere on your site with a shortcode.
• Ticket sales integrations: With Event Tickets Plus and WooCommerce, community organizers can create and sell tickets for their submitted events.
• Fees and split payments: Set fees per ticket, event, or sale, and choose whether they appear separately or are included in the ticket price. Proceeds can be split with organizers.
