Events Calendar PRO for recurring schedules and flexible calendars
Events Calendar PRO is a paid extension that runs alongside The Events Calendar, which is required. Use it when a WordPress calendar needs recurring events or more ways to present and manage event information.
What does the required calendar handle?
The Events Calendar provides the event publishing foundation for in-person and virtual events. Create event entries, save venues and organizers, and group events with categories and tags. Visitors can search the calendar, browse month, list, and day views, and see location information through Google Maps.
The calendar also works with Google Calendar and iCal exports, an upcoming-events widget, JSON-LD structured data, and WP REST API endpoints. Its responsive layout supports mobile, tablet, and desktop screens, while Ajax-powered browsing lets visitors move through calendar content without a full page reload for each interaction.
Which tools does PRO add?
Events Calendar PRO includes recurring events, event Series, additional calendar views, calendar shortcodes, advanced widgets, custom event fields, and an event duplication tool. Shortcodes let you place a calendar on other WordPress pages or posts and filter it by category. Recurring events can represent schedules such as weekly meetings, regular classes, or performances.
How can the calendar fit a site?
The calendar has been tested with major theme frameworks including Avada, Divi, Enfold, and Genesis. Multiple stylesheets, template tags, hooks, filters, partial template overrides, and a skeleton stylesheet provide ways to adapt its presentation. Documentation and free extensions are available, and developer-oriented capabilities include caching support and a debug mode.
Other event products cover ticketing, user-submitted events, automatic imports, and email marketing. They can be paired with the calendar when a publishing process needs those functions.
How do you install and configure it?
- Install The Events Calendar on your WordPress website.
- Install Events Calendar PRO alongside the calendar foundation.
- Configure the calendar options for your site.
- Create events, add venues and organizers, and organize entries with categories or tags.
- Set up recurring events where your schedule requires them, then review the calendar on desktop and mobile layouts.
After setup, refine the calendar’s presentation with available stylesheets, templates, hooks, filters, and extensions.
