I recently discovered this sweet Events Manager WordPress plugin. This nifty plugin allows you to set up events, make them recurring, allow for RSVPs, integrate venues with Google maps, and more. As of now the 2.0 is still in beta, but this plugin is lookin’ good so far. I just thought of a few clients this would work great for!

Here are some of the features:

  • Simple and recurrent events: Events Manager lets you insert simple events, or even events taking place on a regular basis
  • Locations management: locations are cached, and you can add a picture for each location
  • RSVP with e-mail notifications: you can specify a number fo spaces for each given event, and let visitors respond to your announcement
  • Google Maps integration: events are viewable on a map; there’s also a global map, showing all events.
  • Simple and fully customizable: you can simply install the plugin, activate it and add a widget to your sidebar. but if you’re into theme making , you can customize every single piece of output
  • Events RSS feed: an RSS feed is provided, for the joy of RSS lovers
  • Localised and localisable: the plugin is localised in Italian, German, Spanish and Swedish. If you’re a translator, you’re welcome to add your own language localisation

So what are you waiting for? Head on over and download it now. Or search “Events Manager” in the plugin installer. Enjoy.
