What our users are saying
Fantastic, Great Customer Support
I love this plug in. It did exactly what the Event's Calendar couldn't, and I now have a beautiful page detailing only upcoming events in an efficient and easy-to-peruse manner. This way my users don't have to click through a month-by-month view in an attempt to find upcoming events.
It also looks great in my widget sidebar.
I really appreciate what you've done Brian and wish you all the best
Used to Extend The Events Calendar
This helped me to extend “The Events Calendar” so that I can better display past events. Having past events for an event plugin is a no-brainer, but somehow “The Events Calendar” plugin didn’t think it was important enough to include, and this plugin extends this basic functionality perfectly.
Simple to include
With this plugin, you can add a block or a shortcode (which is just some text between [ and ]) on a page to display a list of your events. For example the shortcode to show next 8 events in the category "festival":
[ecs-list-events cat='festival' limit='8']What You Can Create With The Events Calendar Shortcode Pro
You get full control over how your events are displayed, with no code required: choose to show your events in multiple layouts, with or without images, a registration link, calendar view, description, and metadata such as the venue location.
And you can even have multiple shortcodes per page. Plus, it works with the free version of The Events Calendar!
Show your events with full description
This is the default view, which outputs data from The Events Calendar plugin to show your most recent events in a list, with all information; including the time and location, map link, event description, price, and a button to click through to the full event.
Show your events in a compact design
Get your events to display in a compact design, with only the event date, title, and a link to find out more. Make your events fit when you're short on space!
Show your events in a compact design, with a little extra detail
Customize the compact design, adding extras such as event thumbnails and a registration button.
Show your events in a calendar
Get a calendar view for your events, showing the events on each day with a hover-over for extra information. Visitors can click on any event for more information.
Show your events in columns
Choose a column-based design with images, dates, and a short description.
Show your events grouped by date, with the venue shown
You can group events happening on the same date together, perfect for a busy schedule.
Modify the output with a powerful customization system
Customize your event views. Use shortcode variables or template files to display only the event details you need, exactly how you want.
Show your events with pagination
Get previous and next links, letting your visitors view more events without loading too many events at once.
Show your events with a filter bar
Let your visitors use a filter bar to search for events by category, tag, venue, location, and date.

See ExamplesColumns/Horizontal/Photos
Split events into columns so they’re easy to read and visually appealing. Looks great when events have photos (featured images) but works either way. The rows flow into each other in a Pinterest-style design.
See ExamplesGrouped
The grouped design lets you show many events in the same day, grouped together with the date (or month) as the header.
See ExamplesFilter Bar
