Half Baked Crap

    This is the worst plug in I have ever used.

    I got this for the Poster board option. Poster board it is SO half baked, it is pathetic. You have to add so much CSS and still it looks bad. Here are my issues with it all relating to Poster board:

    – Poster board is random dates & sizes: Are you kidding me, this is a F*&%ing calendar, WHY would I want it in random order? You can use code to force size and that makes it stay in order of date but why do I have to do this, this should be standard. This is suppose to be a CALENDAR which use DATES in order from day 1-30, NOT RANDOM DATES!

    – When poster board only has one or two events rather than keep them the forced size (when using CSS) it blows them up to the full width of the page and looks like total crap.

    I think that they came up with the Pintrest type of poster board and got half way thru and just gave up and left it half baked. This is pathetic and is a worthless plugin.

  • You have a theme/plugin conflict. There are over 20,000 WP sites running posterboard well. Can you see what other plugin is giving you problems.

    This is a very sophisticated calendar platform … if you don’t like it, that is fine – but do you really need to call it pathetic & worthless?

    Can I add my voice to bradleyroulston. Posterboard is great. I certainly don’t have any problems with it in posterboard mode and it is a rich and great plugin. We have used it since 2013 and we love its ability to be used in multiple ways and with great flexibility.

    bradleyroulston with all due respect, your links proved my point exactly, they (dev) don’t make the calendar in order by date, the dates are dictated by the image sizes/text. And I do still stand by the fact that they wouldn’t take the time to make this an option, to keep a CALENDAR in order of dates, that is after all what calendars are for! To me that is pathetic, and makes the plugin worthless to use.

    I don’t think there is any respect in your comment. There will be a setting to force Posterboard tiles to a grid in our next release. It will be in the add-ons->Extended Views. It required some very careful thought to do well, for instance what happens to titles that don’t fit. Perhaps you wouldn’t mind retracting some of your negative comments and rating?

    This is the worst plug in ever. I gave up on it and bought EvenOn Calendar from Code Canyon.
