Description
The Events Calendar plugin allows you to create and manage a calendar of events on your website, allowing management of both in-person or virtual events. The Events Calendar Pro in GD Core contains the plugin’s full functionality, however, you must have the basic version installed and active to use any of the PRO features or any of the extensions.
The PRO version provides a detailed and more hands-on event managing interface with options to add recurring events, venues, organizers and locations as taxonomies in the event database. It also provides the foundation for a more controlled & self-managed ticketing platform if the events tickets extensions are used.
When to Use The Events Calendar
Use The Events Calendar plugin when a customer would like a calendar displayed on their site with a directory of all events added.
