Update activity
How busy the existing users are, measured as downloads in the last 30 days for every 1,000 active sites. A spike means a new release everyone's pulling; a long, slow decline means an aging user base that updates less.
Release cadence
Actively maintainedHow often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Estimated value
What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.
Est. annual revenue
Est. acquisition value
No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from. A declining trend compresses what a buyer would pay.

If the client wants more control of the content and formattion I would consider the Pro version.

This plugin is a brilliant power-up that makes important features available in the free version of The Events Calendar.

Provides Gutenberg style blocks for the event calendar plugin.

This plugin was not very easy to navigate and seems to have a clunky interface. Since this is for use with The Events Calendar, it would have been better if its admin interface were in a sub-menu for The Events Calendar, rather than taking up real-estate on the main admin left-side menu. However, it is worth downloading this plugin to access the Events Shortcodes for the Events Calendar which is relatively manageable and provides several simple templates that work for most use-cases. I disabled this one after downloading the addon plugin “Events Shortcodes For The Events Calendar“ Upgrading to four stars. After a few months of use, I have to admit, it’s been useful. Still one star off for confusing admin interface. This topic was modified 3 years ago by Chris LOW. Reason: upgraded star rating

This is only an events list block. It doesn’t enable Gutenberg block editing for all features of the single page template addon to The Events Calendar.

It’s just a complete mess really. – Does not preview in the page builder, always says No Events – Shows the date 3 times in the block header. Why would I want to show it 3 times in 3 formats?? – Shows featured image under the description. This is backwards from the way events actually display and it makes info appear out of order. – Location info is above description, again backwards – Map is not shown – No ability to customize displayed info, like again don’t use the featured image at the bottom in the find out more, show the image at the top where it should be, then just let me customize the find out more link. Unfortunate it’s an unusable mess, it’s a non solution to a missing feature of the event plugin.
