Where do you put your Link for events on WP for E? Do you create a new post?

How can I add an Event without Google Calendar., I have created an event through Eventbrite, copied the URL and added to the "Upcoming Events", however, it does not appear on my page, it still shows: "no upcoming events".

Do I have to use Google?

Thank you
Linda

Dear WordPress.com,

please, calendar or event listing feature is more than needed.

Hi WP administrators.

While we are waiting for WordPress.com to "develop an event calendar" please take a look at the WP theme Soundcheck which includes an 'Upcomming Gigs'
(see theme.wordpress.com/themes/soundcheck/).

Is this something you can benefit from?
Have anyone any experience about / how this theme deal with/organize events?
I am considering using this...

Regarding all discussions about widgets, plugins and 3.party SW: you can not include this in your wordpress.com -blog. You have to host your own wordpress site (e.g. http://www.godaddy.com/hosting/wordpress-hosting) to benefit from custom plugins.

Please, please, please develop a user-friendly calendar widget that matches the themes. I don't even care if the calendar is dynamic. I just want it to look good on the site. If that means I need to edit on the page, that's fine by me. It seems like this is something that could be included in the customization upgrade that I purchased.

Thanks for all the other cool stuff you bring to the yard!

WordPress.org and WordPress.com are separate and different. You can post the Eventbrite embed code on a self hosted WordPress.org install but not on a free hosted WordPress.com blog. The software here strips the code out for security reasons.

I created a blog and made it mimic a website for a bridal show hosted at my Inn. I set up all my registration through Eventbrite. I tried copying the embed code and pasting it into my blog on the page I wanted. The actual information does not show up at all. The only think that shows up in the copyright information with a link to the actual site. Both WordPress and the Eventbrite sites say you can embed it. Do I have to upgrade to pro in order to make this work?

Yes, I want to be able to disply upcoming posts so people know what to expect in coming weeks and months. I plan way ahead when I write so that I have time to research and so my posts follow each other more logically. I would like to be able to show that with a calendar.

I just figured out the website I linked to (bcsfamilies.com/calendar) is a WordPress.org site, and they probably used the events calendar available on wordpress.org. We can't use it on wordpress.com. Boo!

I also found http://www.localendar.com , it says you can use it with Blogger so I assume you could use it with WordPress as well. It does have plugin for the website version of WP

Does anyone know how this calendar works? I think it has the things we're looking for, but I can't figure out how they created it.

Yes, this is exactly what I'm looking for too. An event calendar to publish day, week, month events and that could also be viewed in list format. This is a big component of my website that I'm having trouble finding a good solution for.

Just link to it directly. You can't use ANY of their embed codes, alas. I've tried. I do not know why they use the code they do; a simple HTML link would give them the money just as fast.

You cannot embed it. See here for Eventbrite > http://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/setting-up-cc-payment-on-wordpresscom?replies=3#post-744600

Please develop a calendar - the only reason I did a website instead of a blog is because of this, and the website is proving to be a bit too much for me ( plus it costs $$) My site is basically an events calendar - I'd sell my soul for a decent WP.com event calendar so I could ditch the website

Hi WP.
I can see there are a lot of requests for a WP integrated event calendar. This is something I and lot of WP administrators would benefit from, so I have a suggestion on how to implement this functionality in an easy way:

Why not introduce a new field in Page Attributes called: Publish event on [event date]. Then all the postings with this attribute set could be cross published the Calendar widget both on [published date] and [event date].

If the 'Create Calender' widget also gets 2 check boxes: Show only pages when [Published] and/or [Date of Event], this would become a tremendous improvement of WP.

Thanks.

Hi, thanks for the reply but no, event brute is not useful to me. A main part of my blog is listing events, conferences etc. I want a calendar/schedule/listing that works like google calendar but which is (a lot) more user friendly, mobile compatible and attractive. There is no e-commerce element needed, and it will make up my static front page. Thanks for the suggestion though.
