Eventify – An Event management plugin for wordpress.

Current Version: 1.8.a
Eventify is the first of my many to come, wordpress plugin(s). I developed it for DouleDesigns.com, they were looking for a plugin that would do the job of showing up coming events and was easy to mange and install.
With Eventify:
1. One can edit the CSS for the popups to virtually anything!
2. Display next “n” events or Display events happening in the next “n” days.
3. Widget uses plain javascript and does not interefere with any other scripts loaded e.g. jquery, etc.
4. Bulk upload events into the database using excel csv format. *Please view the [how to video](http://designerfoo.com/custom-wordpress-development) first – which is a little outdated just note there are 6 columns now in the order of title, date, time, desc, venue, event timezone*.
5. You can show events as popups or as wordpress posts.
6. Repeating and Multi-day events support has been added since 1.8.a. and images/links can now be used.
7. Use [eventifytag] anywhere in POST/Text Widget/PAGE to display the list of upcoming events.
8. Back up all your events and restore anytime How To Video
**Tag Usage**
To display events as list on a page/post/text widget use the following shortcode
[eventifytag displaytype="events" displayno="1"]
displaytype can be either “events” or “days” and displayno has to be a valid number.
If you set the displaytype as “events” – Next *n* number of events will be listed. This number is set using the “displayno” parameter.
If you set the displaytype as “days” – Events occuring in the next *n* days will be listed. This number is set using the “displayno” parameter.
Your donations do go a long way, it makes me want to develop more and develop better, for you.
If you like the plugin and would like me to work on it more.., buy me a beer ..

Please Note: Now there are five fields instead of four and all the five have to be there while uploading using CSV. Fields should be in this order -> Event Title, Event Date, Event Time, Event Desc, Event Venue & Event Time Zone ->This order only. Rest everything remains the same as the video above.

Hi Karsten,
Thanks for the pat on the back! I think another JS is interfering with the JS on eventify. I will have to take a closer look.
Yes, to display past events, just select proper value when of X days in the settings, giving enough room for past events.
I working on the Date format bit. Currently in the process of revamping this site and I know I have been sitting on a new version of Eventify for a very long time, sorry about that. But I promise you I haven’t given up on Eventify yet!
i was in need of a plugin in which the form is customizable according to what i need the second it comes as a post or comment to me not straight published which then i authorize it to be publish then comes in a calender as well as in a customizable list with pic logo on it , and last every item on list opens in its own page with the pics and the information on it. do you think you can make some thing like this i am happy to discuss the money if it is a motivation. but you have done very good job till now . i think its best around.
let me know if you are interested in it
manythanks

GREAT PLUGIN! I’ve searched high and low for something like this. Totally customizable which is ideal. Crazy question, on the “Add Event Widget”, is there any plans on simply making that a pop up window down the road? It takes quite a bit of space on the sidebar. It would be ideal to have a simple button “add event” that triggers a pop up box that contains all the necessary fields. Thanks….
SUre will keep that in mind and add it to the later versions!
Hi!!
I love your Eventify. Just one thing is missing: How can I display the weekday before the date in the widget by using the upcoming events? It would be nice so people do not have to look the date up.
Thanks a lot!!
Best wishes
Nicole
Hi Nicole, will add the weekday setting in the next release!
Hi there
Wow super great work. Love your plugin it’s exactly what I need.
I have a problem with the Pop-Up. When I add an Event as a Pop-Up an afterwards clicking on the Eventlink to show the Details it doesn’t open the popUp I get a 404. Somehow I have a javascript error: jQuery(”a.qtip-target[title]“).qtip is not a function.
Did you already had a problem like this an can help me?
Yes, and I can tell you its a JS lib/code that is interfering. This should be taken care of in the next release coming up in June.
Hi there
cool thanks very much. Looking forward to the update then.
Thought it was a js problem but it’s kind of hard to find the fixes in JS libs
Cheers
Hey,
I’m using your plugin for a client ( url listed in website field ) and just upgraded to the newest version of Eventify – the side bar widget is no longer loading events that are popup or page based.
It is loading the copy I’ve added in the widget – but nothing I do seems to get the events to show up in the side bar. Can you please advise?
Using WP 3.1 and Eventify 1.8.a
Ok, which means there’s a javascript issue.
This plugin looks great, but as you have already been told it slows down the website. This needs to be addressed and at the same time could a Google map be added. I will watch this space as they say!
Nice idea about google map!
Will definitely speed it up. Working on it as I type. Should be up in June 2012.
First of all – this is one of my favourite plug-ins in this area, thanks so much.
I would love to give users with the ‘editor’ role (so not just admins) the ability to add events when logged in. So from the sidebar, instead of the widget.
I hoped to find a way to change access levels, but didn’t finy any. Hope you can help me with this!
Thanks!
There’s a setting in the widget that does just that!
I have the same [eventifycalbig] bug. Even tried 1.7d with same results, I guess is something in the Twentyeleven template. Any ideas?
Try the new version, I believe its fixed there.
I have discovered after enjoying your plugin for a few days that it was slowing down my website. If you have discovered a workaround that would be useful. Thanks.
Hey Rick,
Been working on an update since Jan, I am going to release a private beta invite only version by this October. Have a look at http://eventifypro.com
This version would be fast, secure and will be in development and will be refactored alot till I can hit it public alpha/beta. If you would like an invite, just subscribe on the above mentioned site. Hope this helps.
Thank you for the nice plugin. I tested the plugin and I found some problems.
Bug Report : (1) When add eventify on right sidebar through widget it extends to outside of right sidebar, and box size appears too big. (2) After adding an event through sidebar as a visitor, the event is not automatically displayed on the event box (widget). When try to reload the page (event box at this time empty) to show the latest added event, the event adds twice ! (3) When clicking the display events widget (in chrome 13), no pop is shown instead the page goes to black, when clicking it goes off.
Help Needed : I need to customize it, like,
(1)Instead of time start and time end, need to show event start date and end date through calendar.
(2) Instead of time zone I need to add website of the event.
(3) When event popup is shown, the description should be shown only at the end and stripped the long description to two or three sentence.
Hi Tmps,
Bugs noted down and put into the tracker, new version will be coming out in October, signup at http://www.eventifypro.com for an invite to alpha testing it
Please help me to customize it, like,
(1)Instead of time start and time end, need to show event start date and end date through calendar.
(2) Instead of time zone I need to add website of the event.
(3) When event popup is shown, the description should be shown only at the end and stripped the long description to two or three sentence.
Please tell me what changes that I needed to make in PHP file to customize it as mentioned above…
Eagerly anticipated!
hi , you are making great work ! .
but I asked if you could add a view to international language standards (for example Polish, German, etc) the names of the times: today, day, month, week
great thanks and regards !
Hi,
Internationalization is on the road map for eventifypro.com
Next version of eventify
This is exactly the plugin I was looking for, but when I try to create an event, nothing happens. I fill it out, click on create even and I get a blank page and no even has been added. I’m using the latest version of Wordpress. Any suggestions? Thanks.
Its probably something in the theme file which is causing this to be! Please check on a plain vanilla install of WP with the default theme, first and let me know if it still gives problems.
Hi,
Your plugin would be ideal for my current project if I can make it work for me.
I installed the plugin and everything seemed fine until I tried to enter an event. I get an message that says “Event Added!” but when I scroll down to the Event list it’s not there. I’ve tried it a few times – it’s just not saving my events.
My site is running on PHP 5.2. Not sure what to do. Do you have any idea what could be the problem?
Otherwise, it looks like a great plugin.
Hope I’m able to use it! :!
Thanks!
Well, I just upgrade from WP 3.1 to WP 3.1.1 in case that was causing any problems and now the Event Date field is not working. Won’t show the calendar. :/
Hi CJ,
I just tested the plugin in 3.1.1 its working fine. It
could be one of the plugins installed with Eventify? Let me know if you can provide login details, I can check it directly then. Thanks and Sorry for the problems. Also do checkout http:.//www.eventifypro.com (free).
Hi again,
Thanks for your prompt response. I tested plugins and themes and this is what I found:
1. The Eventify from under Settings Now the calendar in the date picker in the plugin settings page does not work when I’m using Tubepress is also active.
2. the tag [eventifycalbig] doesn’t display the google-style calendar in my Events page: http://richmondmainstreet.dreamhosters.com/news-events/eventify-calendar/
when I use the current theme. I will work if I use the WP Twenty10 theme. Unfortunately I have to keep using the current theme.
I don’t know why those plugin/themes break it or how I can fix it. Any suggestions?
A few questions & requests:
- Is there a minimum width needed for the calendar to display correctly?
- I want to be able to approve or deny (monitor) the event posts by guests. Is there a way to do that?
- If I add a post as a pop-up will it still be visible as a post in the archives and RSS?
- It’d be great to offer the users a way to add a photo or flyer – either from a URL or uploading from their own computers.
Thanks so much!!
Ooops – #1 is a little confusing.
1. The date picker in the plugin settings page does not work when I’m using Tubepress (plugin).
Hello,
Really like the plugin. It was exactly what I was looking for. I am running into a problem with the calendar feature. I am using the “[eventifycalbig]” shortcode but running into a problem with the javascript populating the “#calendarem” div. The javascript shows in the DOM and is filled with the correct data, however it doesn’t fill the div at all, thus causing the calendar not to be displayed. Is this usually a conflict between libraries?
Thanks
Yes, it seems a problem with a conflicting library! Sorry! Also do have a look at http://www.eventifypro.com
Hi again … I guess this is a request …. some of our events are over two days.
Is it possible to add that detail at the moment with the current version. If not it would be a great feature perhaps for a later version!
Thanks
Hi Fred,
Request duly noted for http://www.eventifypro.com
For now you can create two events with the same details on 2 different dates. That, I assume, should help? Let me know!
Hello designerfoo
I’m having trouble entering event titles with apostrophes (’), e.g. What’s Happening Today?
Is this a known issue and is there a workaround?
Many thanks
Hi Mitch,
Sorry for the late reply. Yes this is a problem, and it will be fixed in an update soon. Also you do checkout http://www.eventifypro.com
Hi,
Awesome plugin, thanks for sharing.
I had a couple questions, does it tie into posts even if I only use pop-up? I ask since I am using with CRM theme that could be conflicting. I am also setting this up on a multisite installation, does it work? I have added it and tried adding events and nothing appears, even though it says added successfully. I deactivated and resinstalled and didn’t work. I also recently upgraded to WP 3.1, not sure that matters or not.
Thanks for any insights on your part.
Hi,
Yes it might be the theme file conflicting primarily with the JS or it can also be any other plugin that may have been installed. The plugin works fine in WP3.1 and multisite(s). Also advice you to have a look at http://www.eventifypro.com, no more problems like these, releasing soon
and its free!
I am trying to use your plugin in a div below the content area on the page.php file. The shortcode doesnt work there. Is there a way to call it from this position. I just want it to always be displayed no matter which page Im on.
Hope you can help me out with that, I am a newbie with wordpress.
Thanks in advance.
Hi Steven,
You cannot directly use the shortcode within a .php file, you can use a filter that call’s the function that the shortcode associates with. Why don’t you set up a sidebar in the in footer and just use the widget that comes with the plugin?
I just installed version 1.7.d , the plugin works perfect in FF, Chrome, and Safari but in IE, it is a blank calendar. Any ideas/suggestions.
Do you get a javascript error message on the status bar of the browser? Can I have a look at the live site to help you with this? Thanks
Eventify seems very cool to me. I am anxious to use it. Am relativey new to WordPress, so just have a few quick questions:
1) I tried typing in mock-events into the Eventify Control Panel, with all the fields filled-out, including event venue, time, time zone, etc. Then I followed the instrictuons by adding into my code:
[eventifytag displaytype="events" displayno="2"]
But the result was not what I expected. My webpage did not list eventything, it just showed:
02/09/2011 – First Event Title
02/10/2011 – Second Event Title
I would like it to list all of the fields (I thought it would automatically). How can I do that? Also, how can I change the date format so that it will be 10am February 10, 2011?
2) I am living in China and for some reason the video on your site is blocked here. I downloaded the EventifyEg.csv list. Do I have to update and upload it into a particular directory? Or how does that work? I assume it’s just a matter of updating that file, uploading and then the Eventify events will be updated.
Sorry I am relatively new to WordPress, I hope my questions are not too basic.
Best,
Sam
BTW, I think your website is great. Especially like the tutorial.
Hi SAM,
1. The short tag you used works perfectly, it displays the first 2 events that occurring first, please watch the videos on this page to know more about using the plugin. If you cannot view the videos directly, use a proxy like hidemyass[dot]com. The rest of the fields are visible once you click on the event.
2. You just have to change the values in the csv file and then upload.
Don’t worry about the questions, if you have more, email me directly
Happy Day!
Hey – do you have a demo available?
Hi Ollie,
Currently no. Sorry but one is coming up by October this year.
Hi
I have been using this plugin for a little while, but have recently experienced a problem – the box where you type the date of your event will not allow anyone to click or input anything. This means we cannot create new events. It happens in both the backend WP admin area and through the widget interface. I have tried uninstalling, deleting then reinstalling the plugin, but no joy.
Can you suggest anything that might help? There is a shortage of really good, simple events plugins and this one was so useful – when it worked!
Thanks
Hi Kristy,
Can I have a looksie? Could you email me link and access?
Love the plugin, but I cannot get the bulk upload to work. I completed all steps in the video but no luck. I even tried using your sample file to no avail. I’m sure it’s some minor formatting error or something. Any thoughts? Thanks!
Hi Dale,
I just recently updated the files over at Wordpress.org. Just delete the plugin download it fresh from WordPress.org and the csv should work fine.
Hi, looks like a great plugin!
i’m trying to replace an existing Events plugin i was using, which had the user interface integrated in the Wordpress “new Post” interface.
this would be great, as my whole site is about events, all created as posts….(see http://www.when-is.com.au)
Cheers,
Rich
Hi Rich,
Would try to include this in the redone version coming up in Oct. 2011
Love the plugin. is there any way to display the time in another format other than military time?
Thanks in advance.
Hi Jay,
Currently Nope. I am sorry.
Thanks for the previous reply … Now I have a real problem … Somewhat foolishly I installed Eventify on the live site “fndponyclub.org.uk” and used the sidebar widget with a title of “Events soon”. The widget never displayed in the sidebar apart from the title which remain on the “home” page. I deactivated Eventify to try to get the widget showing, but now I have the titkle of the widget remaining and the page load times drastically increased. Other links from the “home” page seen to display and load at normal speeds, but importantly do not show the title remnant.
I understand that it outside your remit to provide whole site support, but these issues have arisen since installing Eventify. I do have other issues too since the installation of Eventify like new content not showing and changes to content not showing even though in Dashboard the changes are visible!
Any thoughts would be very welcome!
Thank you Manoj for the totally awesome support in resolving the issues, well getting the site working anyway!
More than happy anytime to test any upgrade or new version.
Great plugin! It is exactly what we need for our community members.
However, I want to put 4 questions/comments.
First, if I chose an option POP UP by submitting an event, when I try then to open the event, I must scroll up to the upper part of my browser. I know that I have to scroll, but many people wouldn’t as they would thing smth is not working…
Second, is there any way that I choose the category where the event as a POST get’s automatically published? Uncategorized seems very bad on a website…
Third as I edit the info on an event, which initially has been submitted as event-type-post, the post doesn’t get overwritten. So you have manually to fix the content (for example change in the hour/date). Can you think maybe of that…
Fourth, as you have the default option ‘close the option to chose between pop up and post’, by default you will have only pop up.
Is there a way that you can implement in the admins’ settings to choose the default to be only as post?
I’d really appreciate if you can take a look at my points, esp. point number 2)
)) Thanks a lot!
Lucy
Hi Lucy,
Thanks for pointing these out. Would you like to be a tester for a brand new version? I need some people to use the upcoming new version. Let me know!
and Thanks!
Possibly this calendar is the answer to all our needs. Loving the .csv import function!
This has been asked in November 2009, is there any way I can easily modify the date structure to dd/mm/yyyy. I dont mind getting my hands slightly dirty, but I am no php expert, well just starting!!
Thanks
Hi Derfeluk,
You can modify the date structure via the widget, where there is a dropdown with four date format options. I am currently working on a complete overhaul of the plugin, and the alpha will be out in october, it will have a lot of things same, but a lot of things simple and more integrated.
Hi,
Eventify works great !
It would be nice in next version to be able to chose the colour of the event for the full page calandar!
A ) It would be a good way (and maybe easy) to create visual categories, and with a quick look, everyone would see the related events.
B) If 2 events are the same day, now they almost look like only one !
Otherwise, it is simple, easy and already with some cool and usefull options !
Stan
Hi Stan,
Thanks for the pat on the back. Sure A and B are both feasible and will be added in the next update, which is due in october this year, long wait I know, but it will be worth it
Hi, I can’t find how to add a widget with a small calendar (I admit I haven’t yet watch the video…) may you help me?
thank you in advance!
Hey,
Its there in the video
Have a looksie
Hi, I think my theme is interfering with the javascript popup for the eventifytag. Can you take a quick peek and let me know what you think? Look at the bottom middle of the page, you can click the event title and nothing happens. http://rockhillridge.org/?page_id=42
Thanks for any help you can provide! I’ll be sure to donate some $ if I can get this plugin working.
Hi Ryan,
Sorry for the late reply. I just had view on the page, I could not see the plugin there. Let me know if you still want me to check it out. Thanks!
Hi,
I’m adding events but some don’t show up in the listing widget. Any idea what could have caused this? The site I have this plugin installed is http://www.volleyballottawa.com. I’ve added a number of events, maybe around 7 and 4 are showing. The other three are posts on the Blog, but I went through the Add Events process to try and them up. I’ve attempted multiple times, still doesn’t work.
Thanks!
Jackson
Hey Jackson,
Could you be able to give me admin access to take a good look? What version are you using?
Hi,
Can you provide Template code for non-widget theme?
Thanks
Ok will incorporate this in the next version
hi, the plugin is very good! but i have a problem
I have it here
http://wp.ellellestudio.com/pallavolosanremo/info/
in firefox + chrome works fine, in ie DON’T DISPLAY any events, only the calendar.
have you any idea or suggest?? thank you for support!
What version of the plugin are you using?
I installed the plugin, inserted code on Event page, but it’s 404 error after that. What could it be?
Hi Stan,
Looks like an .htaccess or mod rewrite problem, does this happen with other pages too?
Hi, I’m testing your plug in on a subdomain on my website, it looks great so far, roughly it’s exactly the model I need – nice idea.
I am trying to use the bulk uploader, but it won’t work. I have the format exactly as is demonstrated on your video, and I have made the text the same, to try to find the reason it won’t upload. I am using csv, as required, and 6 cols, I just can’t seem to get it up there. It does something, but the once it’s done it the file disappears from the upload box and does not appear as uploaded.
I can enter a single event easily. Can you help?
Thanks
Kirsty
Sure I can, can we talk over email or im?
Can’t wait to see the new release! Is there a possibility that submitted events can go into a certain post category i.e. “Events” and get sent into a moderation queue before publishing? We’d even pay for you to customize it to include those features.
Hey,
I am adding the feature of categories and adding events to a particular category if they are post based events. Moderation queue is something that I don’t think, at the least, at this moment will be released, but sure, if you did like me to customize the plugin for you, mail me and we chat there
I am very affordable!
Thanks for the reply. I’ve been out of pocket but will be in touch soon regarding customization. We are looking to switch away from the Viva Events plugin we now use (which posts events to the front page as the event date approaches) to your plugin should this work. Our current plugin is based on TDO mini forms I believe. Here is the current submission form:
http://www.nelsoncountylife.com/event-submission/
Yours is so much cleaner with the Ajax and all and I think it would reduce the number of tech support requests we get from our submitters.
Hello, Your widget looks really cool and I’ve got it all loaded, but when I tried to add an event it gave me this error: Fatal error: Call to undefined function: str_ireplace() in /home/…
do you know of a way to fix it?
Thank you!
If you can edit the code and replace all str_ireplace with str_replace, that should do it, but I would require some more info to help you, like the version of PHP installed, etc.
Hi,
First of all, thanks for your contribution to the wordpress community. I must admit your calendar is simply excellent.
I have just one… ok… maybe two questions concerning the problem I faced recently. I want to use this calendar as a chess tournament announcer (http://piotrek.prusinski.waw.pl/wordpress/?page_id=2), saying that the calendar will be mostly used as a post-feeder for the website. What I need here is… I just want to be able to access those posts directly from the calendar window by clicking on one of them. Is it possible? Or maybe it should work like that, but I’m doing something wrong?
There is one another thing. Since I’m using POST instead of POPUP option in general, is it possible to disable the popup cloud at all or at least to show it without the description field? The announcments that I’m willing to post on my website are always kind of long texts. This situation causes some particular troubles with loading of javascript, meaning if I have long text to publish everything is going right until I want to see the results. Even though the data is stored in the database and I can see posts as well, my calendar is not showing up and it definitely has to do something with the length of the string.
Thanks in advance for help.
Hi,
I would be willing to customize, the plugin for you. The new releases of the plugin, 1.7.d fixes alot of issues with the calendar, see if it works for you now…
I love your plug-in Eventify! One problem though – after I have installed it, I was able to add an event from the control panel, however the widget in the website will not show the calendar to select the date and it does not allow me to type in the date either.
What can I do to remedy this issue? Thanks so much!
Hi,
This seems like a jQuery and another JS Lib conflict issue atleast in the frontend, if you are using a theme, which is custom made, etc, it is either implicitly and directly importing jquery OR its using another JS lib that may be conflicting with the eventify’s date picker, if you can provide a link, I will be able to tell you more about the same. Thanks for using the plugin!
great plugin, it is exactly what i was seeking. the only problem im having is that i use the widget in the footer of my site. when the modal window is triggered it measures document height, not screen height to define where the modal displays, thus requiring the site visitor to scroll up to the top of the document to see the modal. is there a way to use screen height instead?
the screen height variable seems to be loaded with document height (simply swapping to the ‘window’ argument doesnt work):
var maskHeight = jQuery(document).height();
thanks for making such a useful plugin!
Hi Brian,
Would you mind If I had a crack at it? A link would be certainly useful, also you can try vanilla js, for fetching the screen height.
it is the website listed for my comments & i also sent it via your contact form just in case. thanks!
Greetings, very nice plugin. I installed it on my website, changed a couple of words to in fullcalendar.min.js to make a spanish version, but at the moment i try to use the full calendar, the events do not seem to work, and they appear at the top of the calendar, not on the day they are scheduled for. This is the page I’m using it:
http://ladante.com.mx/cultura/calendario
Is there a way I can fix this…?
Hi,
I found what the problem is, working on a fix, should be done by tomorrow sometime.
Hi,
Just to see how it goes…
THANKS A LOT!!! It’s working very well.
Hey, Great plugin. I’m just trying it out right now. Yesterday I made two events. One a Popup and the other a blog. It worked perfect. However, I went back today and when I clicked on the Popup event, it gave me a 404 error. Any idea as to why this is?
Please advise,
Steve
Also, I tried adding the [eventifycalbig] to a new page, but nothing showed up. Why might this be?
Appreciate your help,
Steve
Hey Steven, Mind if I did take look? Can we take this over email? Thanks!
Hi,
Loving the plugin, but when i select the event to appear as a pop-up, and i then click the evnt in the widget, the lightbox appears, but it doesnt drag up the content and only shows the loading image?
Any ideas of how i could fix this?
Thanks
thanks for all the info but what’s the output of the plugin? can i see a demo? how does it look on a simple wordpress install?
Can I mail you the screenshots? Currently working on the iCal and additional field options.
hi, the plugin looks great. a few quick questions…
1. does it support recurring events?
2. is it possible to save venue info so that addresses & phone numbers don’t have to be added several times?
3. can you please send me some screen shots?
thanks!
Currently no recurring events are supported, yes its possible to save venue info, etc. Can you mail me your email add? Thanks!
Hey, I have been trying to add the calendar to my website on this page http://www.montereyski.org/calendar/ in a format like [eventifycalbig] but nothing shows us at all. The [eventifytag displaytype="events" displayno="1"] works fine and shows the list of events, but when I click on events nothing happens. Can you please advice? I have also added it as a widget and it works perfectly in there but not on my page.
Thanks is advance!
Can I have look? What version of Eventify are you using? I tried the link above, it gave me a 404.
hi,
Nice plugin, i want to use this plugin with ‘MapPress’ plugin which is for Google map, on event list page i want that when i add an event the event location automatically mark on map, is there such functionality in this plugin.
Thanks
Hi Abid,
Not Currently, but you can uservoice it and if it gets a lot of votes, then I would plan a release. Thanks! Glad you like the plugin.
Is Eventify now compatible with php 4?
Have a problem:
Events added are marked as ‘deleted’ – it is good to hide them in common news-flow, but IE have no access to their pages to show.
It’s a problem of engine, but this feature is usable by eventify and I don’t know what to do with it – plugin is great to me.
So sorry, it’s not problem of plugin, but an error of our administrator, human-factor in real life.
Trouble was fixed
great! sorry for the late reply, been a little busy.
I copied the following code:
[eventifytag displaytype="events" displayno="1"]
into the sidebar – Text widget and saved it, I also have 3 events added. Now when I try to check the sidebar, it shows up the same code:
[eventifytag displaytype="events" displayno="1"]
and not the actual events, am I missing something?
I am using WordPress: 2.9.1
Thanks.
Bhupal.
Why don’t you use the sidebar widget that already comes with the plugin? it’s better managed and easier that way. Hope this helps.
Can you make it that it supports multiple day events?
I would like to use it to display the expositions in teh sidebar with related post with more info on the exposition.
But for that I need to be able to make an even go from for example May 03 to May 28.
Thx
Hi Sensas,
Will definitely try to add the functionality where the events go on for multiple day’s like conf’s etc.
Is there any way to add the events to a page instead of a post? For example an events page.
Hi Joey,
Currently no, but I can take the request down and work on it
I would love to use this, but is there a way that you can export the data generated – ie, a list of attendees?
Yeah, In the admin there’s a backup button that will make a dump of the table with all the event info. But I haven’t included a RSVP mod into the plugin yet but seems like and awesome idea, will do so with the next release scheduled soon.
Hi great plugin, much needed thanks.
I have to questions:
One is there a way to make it so that users who add events automatically are added as popups and take away that choice for them or take away the post choice?
Second, is there a quick code for the event form to add it to a page if we don’t want it in the widget?
Thanksq
Hi Daniella,
Thank you for the praises
A newer release of the plugin is scheduled this week, I will make sure it has these features. To keep yourself updated you can become a fb page fan of the plugin, I post to it everytime I update the plugin(s). Thanks!
Look interesting, going to try it out.
Thanks!
My wife and I both love this plugin. My only comment is: can you add functionality so that once an event is added you can go back and edit it? My wife has had to move a couple of her event to a different date and deleting and readding is a pain. Also, going into the database and editing that way is something that my wife cannot do. This would help us out a bunch. I’m sure other users could use this also. Thank you. Again, a big pat on the back for this.
Sure Thomas,
I will add that functionality with the next release which will be this week end
lots changed
Is there ical functionality? not clear in the description.
Hi Mathew,
The iCal functionality will be out shortly in the next release, its in alpha right now. To keep yourself updated do connect, either via fb, twitter or rss
Hi,
I use your eventify plugin, and perhaps for the next issue, you can make it compatible W3C.
In eventify.class.php about line 914, you put a link attribute in the body tag instead that in the head tag.
Perhaps, can you put it in the function add_js_css_theme ?
Best Regards.
Thanks Damien, Will do so
Next release will be W3C compliant
Hi Designerfoo,
I see some improvment which are good, but I meet errors with the W3C compliant yet.
I correct this at each new version for me.
I think that it a point that should not be overlooked
Best regards
Hello! Looks like your plugin will really helps me, but it doesn’t work.
I press the “Add event” button and see this message:
“Fatal error: Call to undefined function: str_ireplace() in /home/*****/public_html/domain.com/wp-content/plugins/eventify/php/eventify.class.php on line 48″
Help me please.
Hi Vadim,
It seems you are running the plugin locally and I think its either the “str_ireplace” function in PHP is not found or your PHP version is old? What version are you using and what OS?
My server uses Linux + PHP 4.4.6
thats what the problem is
the function that i am using is not compatible with php 4.x its a php 5.x function, I will make the correction soon
thanks! and sorry!
Same problem as Vadim, when do you think you will be able to make it run on PHP 4.x?
Your plugin does EXACTLY what I need, but it’s not working
This would be sometime this week, pref-ably before Sunday/Monday!
I have changed all “str_ireplace” to “str_replace” – works OK, cause case is not important in quotes-changing
I have installed eventify, but can’t add any event – nothing happens.
Yellow status bar shows ‘event added’ but there is no event shown in the table and no events on my event page nor in my sidebar / by widget ![]()
Any Idea? What about folder and rights?

Hi Maxx,
Did you recently update from an older version? Here is what I suggest, deactivate, delete and re-install the plugin, if you are still facing problems, mail me and I am sure we will fix it. Thanks
I was wondering why the popup after clicking on the event name is not working. The popup works on the home page widget but when i go to the page where i added the event the link dosent do anything. The homepage is http://www.untiltheshout.com the page with the events is http://untiltheshout.com/?page_id=24
Hi Robert,
Thats because you chose to save the event as a post? If you want a popup, while entering the events make sure you save them as a “popup”. Hope this helps. Thanks for using the plugin!
Hi. Love your plugin but I can’t bulk upload. Watched video, can’t even upload your example csv file. No error on page but I find this in my PHP error log:
WordPress database error for query Select * from wp_em_main made by require_once, do_action, call_user_func_array, eventify->options_panel, referer: http://intranet.uftwf.org/wp-admin/options-general.php?page=eventify/php/eventify.class.php
Hi Rick,
Can you mail me the csv file? Let me have a look at it?
I am getting a js error in IE 8.

Hey Dustin,
Thanks for letting me know. Fixed and Uploaded the new version to wordpress. Just update
Thanks again and happy new year!
Hi Manoj, Eventify Is very simple and that’s great, but can you make it to work with the plugin (Mingle) mingle is a community plugin. if you could make a version where the user can upload there events to there “profile editor” in the mingle plugin so it will show up on the “profile” page in a section on the page or make it when people press there event button a shadowbox pops up with all there events they uploaded in the frame, and at the same time there should be a main event page where all the users events are listed on a page in alphabetical order by state and city That would be Great. Thank You For You and Your Plugin.
Hope to see it Soon, That it would be Great!
God Bless You
Henry

Hi Henry,
Thanks for the wishes
and glad you liked the plugin, sure will keep that in mind, with the next release, and will update via twitter and email subs. Thanks again and god bless!
Love the plugin, but it doesn’t like my site. It locks the up down scroll bar in IE8. Works fine in other browsers (Safari, Chrome, FireFox). Compatibility problem with theme?
Hi Frank,
Let me have a look at it for you, if its okay with you? and thanks for the pat on the back
more versions of the same coming up soon!
Looks like a theme problem, mail me and I can help you make it work. Thanks!
@robert I have added the date support and venue support in 1.1.c
hope thats fine now.. as for the time zones, I quite did not understand where would you like these? To be displayed on the widget ?
I was wondering – instead of the css styled “popup”, is it possible to enable it for use with Shadowbox / Lightbox etc?
Also – I agree with the date formatting – it really needs to go International !!
Is it possible to put this in the options section?
Hi Craig,
I will work on the lightbox/shadowbox popup. For now I have added the date formatting option and added a venue field too.. hope this helps.. The new version is 1.1.c
Hi Craig,
Ligthbox style popup added in the new version!
great plugin. I have a suggestion for you. could you make it a bit more international? I really need dates in DD/MM/YYYY format rather than MM/DD/YYYy format.
Should ne easy enough to pick this up from the WP Date Format constant?
Keep up the good work
Thanks Robert for the pat on the back and the recommedation, will definitely work on it!
Would also be good if you could include an optional time field and possibly a location?
That would make me very happy
great idea! how can i add more space at the bottom? i have a twitter widget below and the eventify message when clicked are covered by the twitter widget.
thanks so much!
Get into the plugins folder. There would be a CSS folder, inside that there is a file called – popup_widget.css – you can use this file to edit and margin’s, make the popup appear any way you like
Hi, I was wondering if I can edit the information shown on the pop up. For example Im not interested in showing the “end time” or the “timezone”.
1. which file should I go and edit for the above?
2. from which file the pop up “calls” the date/info etc?
Best regards, great plugin
hi
the video was great. its a very good needed plugin, no doubt. congrats for the initiative.
one more suggestion, there should be an option to give a hyper link for that event with a post already published on the net
i tried this in a wp-mu site. after adding the event, the admin page went white. when refreshed, the event was not there!. so its not properly working in wp-mu
ONS.
Hi ONS, sorry for the wp-mu mess up.. I haven’t tested for wp-mu yet, just trying to make it through the next release which would be hopefully next week, but before that I have to finish this site
Great idea! I just happened to be looking for this capability. Two observations: 1) the time drop down in the admin panel needs to be a bit wider; and 2) you should add a time zone field. Cheers!
Hey Jon,
Thanks for the pat on the back
Glad you liked it.. Will definitely add the time zone and time drop fields
Hi Damien,
Could you point out where and which line the error is, I can correct it for future releases. Thanks.
Hi designerfoo,
If I remember good, the errors are the following:
aventify.class.php
- line 935 : Close It => miss space between “#” and class=”
- line 946 : miss ALT attribute for img tag.
& there is a problem W3C with the tag div here but I don’t understand why.
- add in function add_js_css_theme()
the line echo ” . “\n”;
in eventify.widget.php
remove the line echo ” . “\n”; (don’t remember the line)
I think that I put everything.
best regards
Yes, but you may have to code a bit. The file is within the PHP folder, called eventify.class.php
Thanks Fred! Still working hard on it

Hi,
Thanks for the great plugin!
I’m working on a Mac and in the normal Eventify “settings” window the calendar to enter the event-date doesn’t pop up. this happens on Safari and Chrome. I only see a very thin frame.
Is there the option to display past events?
Is it possible to change the date-format global?
Best!
