Event Genius – Event Calendar, Event Registration, and Attendee Management

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory searches this plugin turns up in, and which way each one is moving. WordPress.org publishes no history of search positions, so this starts the day we first tracked a keyword and never backfills.

wp.org is where the directory puts the plugin for that search. On merit is where it would sit if results were ranked on rating, support and updates, without the install boost. The last column is how far the wp.org position moved, from our first reading in the last 90 days to the latest.

425 searches this plugin appeared in over the last 90 days, 20 listed. 330 left out as unrelated or noise (years, numbers, stray words).

Directory rank vs rivals

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Crossed into this band 2 months ago and a band this size takes about a year or more to cross, so the real count is still just over 600.

At the current install trend, crossing 700+ in roughly 123 days.

   This plugin is exactly what I was looking for! Not only does it work perfectly for my event management needs, but the support is also second to none. Well done! This topic was modified 2 weeks, 6 days ago by 3ringsjeff.

   I just discovered this plugin and love it so much more then the others I tested. It’s super easy to learn and use and performs flawlessly. I wanted a few customizations and Phillip provided amazing support. His response time is fast and updates were simple to implement. Thank you so much!

   You can’t accept payments for events unless you get the premium version, what an absolute joke. Doesn’t integrate with woocommerce either, uses its own integration, complete idiocy.

   This is such a great plugin, and I can’t reiterate enough how outstanding, fast and friendly the support is!!! Suggestions/questions I’ve made have even been taken into account and quickly implemented when possible.

   The plugin offers many options in its free version. It has a clean interface and is lightweight. It’s great for event registrations, which it offers right out of the box. Support is very helpful and responsive.

   Great features, very responsive and easy to use. What works well: Generous free version with features most plugins lock behind a paywall Recurring events included for free Integrates natively with the Gutenberg block editor Fast and responsive, clean and well-structured code Active developer with quick support response times Works with Elementor and other page builders via shortcode What could be better: The category and tag archive views feel unfinished Onboarding screen interrupts plugin activation flow I made a walk-through and full review of the current version on my YouTube channel @wordpress103

   I needed a simple plugin to allow people to commit to weekly event. It worked just as I had hoped. I just needed to make some css adjustments to get the style just how i wanted. Great support from developer and a solid product overall 🙌
