Events Manager Pro 3.2.6

Events Manager is a free and Pro and feature-filled events plugin for the WordPress platform, providing the ability to publish events, locations and manage bookings among many other features.

Events Manager Pro is an add-on to Events Manager, which extends the functionality of the free plugin to provide a further layer of tools and features for professional event organizers. Pro uses the very same actions and filters in Events Manager, which any developer can use to extend the plugin as they see fit (a testament to EM’s flexibility).

Events Manager remains an integral part of the Pro plugin and therefore we will always remain committed to maintaining, supporting and adding more features to the free plugin because Pro depends on it. Given we started this plugin as a labor of love, we don’t ever intend on changing this approach!

History​

Events Manager originally started as a labor of love in early 2008. Originally developed for Davides’ Irish-folk band, once published for others to use on WordPress.org, demand for this great plugin immediately began to grow and requests for new features began to pile in.

In mid-2009, Marcus came across this plugin whilst developing an events solution for a client, and couldn’t help but add his own improvements to make it suit his needs. Given his enjoyment for writing WordPress plugins, Marcus quickly came to realize the potential of this plugin and began expanding it in his free time. Eventually, Davide handed over the reigns to Marcus due to other commitments and he’s been maintaining and providing support for Events Manager since.

Two complete rewrites, new features and many updates later, demand and time required for maintaining, updating and supporting this plugin quickly outgrew the amount of free time available. Feature sponsorship and donations also didn’t make up for the time needed to make EM all it can be , so a decision was made to launch Events Manager Pro in March 2011.
