FAQ

How to upgrade to Full version?

You can buy the EventON Full version from codecanyon. After that uninstall the lite version and install the Full version on your website. If you want to move the data from lite version to Full version, make sure that you enable the “Do not delete eventon settings & data when EventON is uninstalled” option Settings -> General and “Save Changes” before uninstalling the lite version.

How can I insert calendar on any page?

You can use the EventON shortcode generator that is available on any page in the classic editor tool panel or EventON gutenberg block. Simply access the generator, choose your desired settings, and the shortcode will be generated for you. You can then copy and paste the generated shortcode into the desired page where you want the calendar to be displayed. With the EventON shortcode generator, it becomes effortless to customize and incorporate EventON features into your pages.

How do I filter events on load?

You can filter events on load using event type taxonomies using the eventON shortcode. Example [add_eventon event_type=’23’] — Please follow the guide here for a detailed information.

Should I purchase a EventON Full version?

The decision of whether to purchase the paid version of EventON depends on your specific site requirements and the type of events you wish to create for your site visitors. The EventON Full version offers a wide range of features that enhance the functionality of the plugin, and we provide several bundles to ensure you receive the best value for your investment. One notable bundle is the Ticketing Bundle, which includes addons such as Tickets, QR Code, Seats, Dynamic Pricing, Booking, Reminder, and Variations & Options.

this plugin is the best one i ever used, powerful and so beautiful design with great support also so many tutorials and document , I would give it 6 start if i can ??????????

Perfect for my usage

denisb22 September 11, 2024

Very nice plugin with a large options of customization available

Lovely support

juraj995 August 21, 2024

Problem was solved the same day when reported.

Fantastic spot to leave code errors

jessichucreations June 23, 2024

I had an issue with the code where my links would be stripped of special characters and therefore any Chinese words inside a link would be stripped. The team responded after a few days and fixed my issue by giving me a custom code to fix it and saying that it would be fixed in the next update. I am super happy with the results. However, it did annoy me that the only place to leave a message for the teach was on this forum which was IMPOSSIBLE to find. I couldn’t find a proper contact page because everything linked me to their PRO account. It really annoyed me because this was an APP glitch and not a user error. It took me longer to find this forum which I had to create an account for (and wordpress wouldn’t let me create an account for some reason) and overall it took over 2 weeks to get everything done. I don’t see why they couldn’t have an easier method to contact support for people who don’t have PRO. I don’t mind that they charge for support for PRO users, but there should be an easier way to report bug errors such as their own homepage or email. I did not deduct any review stars because of this since their support is really good thus far. I just hope I don’t run into any other issues.

Great plugin but past events issue

redoniondesign June 15, 2024

Great plugin, and clever way to monetise additional features. The main thing that’s not great is that although events gets crawed by Google, once the event is finished there is no notification on the event page to say it has ended – which is unclear for readers (even with year added). The only way to be super-clear is to have the event auto-delete?– which is a shame as you’re losing google traffic, and also the events take time to manually create in the first place.

Almost perfect

justmeca June 10, 2024

I really want to give this a 5 stars but there is one missing feature from the lite (and regular licence) which drops the score. Only Administrators can add events and you can’t give other user roles permission to add events unless you buy both the regular license and an add-on. I understand the cost of developing plugins but at the same time, restricting event addition to only Admin is too restricting as it gives too much access to the website back end to people who don’t need or want the responsibility. The user action plug-in is overkill for just this feature and having a yearly cost puts this out of my budget (which is nothing as I am running a small fraternal organization website as a volunteer) I can see this being part of the regular license if not the lite version. Also, there is nowhere in the eventOn lite documentation that mentions that only Administrators can add events. The action user plug-in page mentions user permissions at the end of its description as this is just an afterthought rather than an important feature.
