Beschrijving

Adds some meta-data to posts to convert them into full calendar events.
Each event can be exported into ical(.ics), outlook(vcs), or Google Calendar.
Geolocation works thanks to openstreetmap.

It can also fetch the weather, but doesn’t bring the sun 🙂

FAQ

Is the plugin free ?

Yes, and it uses only open-sources : openstreetmap, openlayer, jquery

How do I enable weather feature ?

Weather feature uses openweathermap.org api.

You have to create an account and generate an API key at http://openweathermap.org/price

I have no interest in openweathermap.org, I personally use the free plan.

Is there any limitation for the weather feature ?

Openweathermap.org provides a free plan limited to 60 requests per minute.

You can also subscribe to paid plan, I don’t care.

For many websites with simple event needs, this plugin could be a better approach because it doesn’t require the user to learn an entirely new interface — instead, you just create a post in the usual way and add date and location. However, the plugin will need more polish to make it a true replacement for dedicated event plugins. The method for adding venue addresses is awkward, and it would help to have a way to store frequently-used addresses.

Event Post – TOP!! Excellent plugin that fits into Wordpress. Many thanks to the developers – it is used with enthusiasm on websites.

I was looking for a simple solution to post and archive events that were previously only on Facebook. Thanks to this plugin, it was easy to do. Thanks for your work so far

Thanks for a simple, light, easy plugin. I didn’t want a full event calendar for this project, and this is ideal. I would suggest simpler documentation for non-devs (like a dedicated admin page with settings, docs etc), and ability to control layout/css in shortcode a bit more, how to add weather, but overall an awesome and light plugin for folks who know some coding. Thanks.

Voilà une extension bien pensée ! Simple, fonctionnelle et conviviale. Fait ce qu’elle doit faire, avec simplicité et, au besoin, une certaine sophistication quand même ! Bravo et merci !Ne fonctionne pas avec le thème Impreza (widget Calendrier et shortcode).
