[The Events Calendar] cannot preview CSV events file to import
The solution was easy: just take care that the csv-file is UTF-8 format.

Fast, Precise Support via Liquid Web
It took me forever to figure out that I could still get support for calendar plugins since TEC was acquired by Liquid Web. Simply submit your support request at software.liquidweb.com/support. Once I figure that out, I got an IMMEDIATE response with very actionable advice. I simply replied to the email with further…

Great plugin but support and licensing is a mess
This product , the support and licensing use to be awesome, since liquid web made all of the changes to the licensing and dashboard, nothing works, licences are a mess and some paid for no longer work, price has gone up, support is next to none existent and I cannot even login to my dashboard to see what a mess my…

Fast and helpful support
After installing TEC on a new site, we had missing tables and, after investigation, we found a problem in the site’s database. The troubleshooting and help screens provided useful information and then TEC support — both free and commercial — stepped us through a further diagnosis. The response was within hours.…

Great Customer Support
I’m not a computer guy, so its been a challenge for me to get WordPress events and Promoter to work in sync. Darian has been responsive, helpful, and patient. Much appreciated!

Terrible with Liquid Web
I’ve been a long-time user of The Events Calendar Pro, and for years it served my clients somewhat well – not great, but well enough to stick with it. (Issues until now have been that the plugin is a massive drain on hosting resources and their version upgrades break things.) Since Liquid Web took over, the experience…

Terrible Block Editor integration!
It had been years since I last used this plugin, so I decided to give it another try. I was genuinely hoping things had improved, but I came away quite disappointed. As a WordPress developer, I found the latest version unnecessarily complex and frustrating to work with. Simply activating it produced numerous PHP…

The best calendar
I confess that after an upgrade that I was not aware of, the events calendar started behaving badly. Tech-support couldn’t quite figure out what was going on, so I shopped around for a different calendar program. I must honestly say nothing compared. So my solution was to contact Claude AI, and Claude solved the…

New Company does not respond to legacy customers.
After Nexcess took over the plugin, I have now emailed them 3 times trying to renew the license I have for the plugin from the original makers of the product who were very good at responding to their customers and solving the support issues, but they have yet to respond to me. At this point I will NOT be renewing the…

No Support with Premium
I paid for the premium version of the plugin and see its limitations. I was willing to upgrade, but they do not respond to support requests despite multiple attempts. Links don’t take you to where they say they will. Looks like they are putting zero effort into this. Do not waster you money. Highway robbery.

Too Many Error Codes
This plugin has caused too many error codes and issues for me since installing. Now I am getting a huge list of errors when I first load the events page, so there is no telling what other kind of behind-the-scenes issues this is causing. Uninstalling and trying to find something else.

Plugin-squatting at its worst – Run away
Last update brings a full spam menu from an unknown company named Liquid Web / Nexcess: NO THANKS. This behavior is nothing more than plugin-squatting. A full advertising menu (« Liquid Web ») was injected into the WordPress admin sidebar without consent, pushing upsells for unrelated paid products…

No thanks
After this update shoving a menu that looks like Malware into dozens of my client sites, I will be moving all of them off of Events Calendar Pro into another Event system. I hope everyone else does the same. This type of action is absolutely not OK. many panicked clients and even myself thinking we got hacked when…

Unusable after 6.16.0
The latest update 6.16.0 includes an unwanted Liquid Web software manager that you can’t remove. This takes a decent plugin and makes it unusable.

Big mistake
I’ve started using this software and honestly the support has been terrible. The help website is really difficult to navigate, I keep getting broken links to link the bot sendme to clickon, and even though I paid for an account, the constant upselling is incredibly frustrating. I spend more time closing ads and…

Awful update
I simply hate the fact that they want to upsell you everything in their suite. Right under Dasbhoard menu under “Liquid Web”. Uhh, this is what I hate most of any freemium plugin, when they simply add such stuff in a regular update – not an opt-in – just in your face.

Fiev star plu for Chika at The Events Calendar
We corrupted the data files in our TECalendar on WordPress. I worked for hours and hours trying everything – including deleting and reinstalling – nothing worked. I contacted TEC and I was so relieved, Chika responded and worked with me to get our calendar up and running. She even took over the install and fixed the…

Excellent Customer Service
I had been working on the Maps integration for a couple months, with no luck. I reached out to customer service and Anthony replied and, not only offered his help, but partnered with me to make sure the WP Events Calendar was working the way I had hoped. He followed through after the problem was resolved to check in…

overkill, bring back gigpress
I just want to create a simple list of events. not a map full desciption, and load of other formatting. Bring back gigpress, it was so much easier. Not recommended.

Highly responsive support
A technical question, a quick answer that solves the problem.

Excellent Support!
I had an issue with the event google map and TEC support logged in to fix it. Overall very happy with The Event Cal and highly recommend it.

Capability is meh… Description content very limited
First off, when I enabled the Event Manager it commandeered an Events page I already had content in and that all disappeared and was replaced by a calendar widget. Next off, I tried adding an event and, in the description, I needed to add a shortcode form I have for charitable donation. This was a no-go. Evidently,…

Excellent features, great ease of use, top-shelf support
We use TEC to publish our scheduled appearances on our website. TEC supports this perfectly, with just the right amount of features and integrations. The intuitive setup makes it child’s play to configure and use. And when I have a problem, support steps up with amazing speed, friendlyness, and accuracy. Highly…
