Events Calendar Made Simple – Pie Calendar

تفصیل

The Most Flexible Events Calendar Plugin for WordPress

Pie Calendar lets you effortlessly turn any post on your WordPress site into an event, making it visible on a user-friendly front-end calendar. It doesn’t lock you into any post type – use the default WordPress posts or pages, or create your own Custom Post Type (CPT).

This plugin is crafted with careful thought, ensuring an event management system that’s lean, powerful, and incredibly flexible. Whether it’s a page, post, or CPT, any post on your site can be turned into an event and featured on your calendar in a matter of minutes.

Watch our 4-minute Quick Start Guide:

Create Events in Record Time

Work directly in the WordPress Editor with existing posts and interfaces you’re already familiar with.

There’s no external editor or custom interface to learn. In a matter of minutes, you can turn any post into an event on your calendar.

Unlike other event calendar plugins that overwhelm you with options and features you’ll never need, Pie Calendar is intentionally stripped down. Our features let you create an event listing website that is as simple or as complex you need.

Features

  1. Turn Any Post Into an Event: Within minutes, convert any post on your site into an event that appears on your front-end calendar.
  2. Works With Any Post Type or CPT: Use default WordPress posts or pages, or create your own CPT. Pie Calendar offers you total flexibility.
  3. Single, Multi-day, All Day Events: Set your events for a single day, span them across multiple days, or enable all-day events.
  4. Multiple Views: Pick from regular monthly calendar view, week views, list views, or even a single day view.
  5. Custom Field Support: Already have your own custom fields for Date and Time via Advanced Custom Fields or Meta Box? No problem! Pie Calendar can use custom fields for event date and time.
  6. Recurring Events (Pro): With flexible recurrence options, you can set your events to repeat as needed – every few days, weeks, or on a specific day every month.
  7. Color-Coded Events (Pro): Give your events a unique color to make them stand out on the front-end or for enhanced organization.
  8. WooCommerce & EDD Support (Pro): Transform any WooCommerce product or EDD Download into an event to create custom booking and event ticketing systems.

ہرہک دے سوال

Will this work with my theme?

Yes, this plugin should work with almost any theme. We have tested it with the top 10+ themes in the WP theme repo and they all work with Pie Calendar.
Builders such as Bricks and Oxygen work with Pie Calendar, although the shortcode doesn’t render inside the builder itself.

Does it work with Custom Post Types?

Yes, they just need to have supports: editor and supports: custom-fields enabled.

What are the view options available with Pie Calendar?

Your visitors can pick from a dropdown of views on the frontend including dayGridMonth, listMonth, timeGridWeek, listWeek, or dayGridWeek.

You can also use a shortcode parameter to choose what the default is upon page load.

Can I show only one post type on the front-end?

Yes! If you’ve turned multiple different types of posts into events and you only want to show one on a specific calendar, you can use the shortcode parameter: [piecal type=”events”].

Simply replace “events” with the appropriate name of your post type.

Does it work with RTL languages?

Yes, the calendar plugin pickups if your WordPress language is RTL via the is_rtl() function and will adapt accordingly. Consider also using the “locale” parameter in your [piecal] shortcode.

This calendar plugin is easy to use and has great potential, but the widget form contains a huge bug: when a date is pressed on this widget, the events on that date are displayed, but with a different (incorrect) date above it! This makes the widget unusable. I have reported this bug, but never received an answer, nor was it resolved. Also, it would be great if you could display an event list with this plugin.

Pie Calendar is an excellent choice for those who appreciate clean code and fast loading times. No styling nonsense or complicated setups—just plug it in, and it works right away. Simple, efficient, and hassle-free. The perfect solution when you need functionality without the extra fuss!

What a great plugin & team. Simple to use, fairly priced, does what’s needed & also provides customization options. On top of this Jonathan went above & beyond by helping me fix some of my code to enable even more customization – which he didn’t have to do. Outstanding!

Wanted a calendar plugin to add date functionality but keep everything else simple (so avoided the huge, over complicated event plugins) so this was perfect. Hit an issue so contacted support. Got a reply from Jonathan within minutes (and it was a Saturday!) and then got the answers I needed along with a video showing exactly what he did and it now does what I needed perfectly. Worth every penny for the pro version.

The plugin itself is fairly simplistic and lightweight, which is exactly what I was looking for. Most of the event management solutions have become completely bloated with unnecessary proprietary functionality. Pie Calendar lets me build the way I want – with ACF and CPT. I had a specific use case for the calendar links that required a customization. The team responded to my request in a few hours and had a solution within a few days. These guys are amazing, and I know that Pie Calendar has a bright future!
مئی 15, 2024 1 reply
The plugin is simple, it does what it says. However, there is no plugin dashboard (a simple page with shortcuts to documentation, shortcodes, etc. would be a plus). The plugin’s translation management isn’t native and can be a bit tricky. You can’t specify if you don’t want the plugin to appear on this or that post/page. I hope to see improvements in the future as it’s a good plugin.
