Overview
When events take place across several venues, visitors need a clear way to find each location and see which events are connected to it. MEC Advanced Location lets organizers create a dedicated page for each venue, with detailed location information and a map. Locations can also be marked as featured, giving site owners a way to highlight selected venues.
Shortcodes let you place location and speaker information around your site in list or grid formats. These displays can include maps and events associated with a location or speaker, including ongoing events. The add-on suits event sites that need to organize venues and help visitors explore what is happening at each one.
Features
