A couple of days ago I activated GD with a view to replacing the Directory I was using. If all went well after a few weeks trial I was going to switch my Events directory too. I was so impressed with GD I just decided to switch it now. So easy to use, intuitive and it looks exactly as I want straight out of the box. The front end is so good, I know it’ll make it easier for my users to add events and improve UX. I highly recommend this plugin (and GeoDirectory) if you want an events plugin. The only way this plugin could be better is if it added listings for you! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/133301ec9daa83fce03a9b683251a9f318328f7fd7589861d6e9b53c4e29afc7? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Nice features](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-features-30/)󠁿 [netmagik](https://profiles.wordpress.org/netmagik/) January 15, 2021 Pretty much everything I could ask for in an Events system, combined with great pro-active support.
