Biggest opportunity: Swap “calendar” and “event registration” for “attendee management” and “attendees”. “calendar” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “attendee management” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “event registration” isn't earning its slot: it only gets you to #20. “attendees” sits at #10 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

1.1%

of downloads still active

At least 3K of 263.6K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Booking & Events plugin keeps 0.8%, across 940 plugins.

Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Booking & Events plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.

This plugin shipped 3 releases in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

    I was looking for a simple plugin to have members of my site RSVP for the events we host. Although the pro plugin pretty complex is and suitable for many purposes, support helped me perfectly with enabling and tuning it for our site. Even when I had a problem importing the users, they helped me cleaning the CSV file so it could be imported. The only thing missing is adding all WordPress users automatically to the global invitee list when a certain role is present. Nevertheless, keep up the good work!

    This RSVP / Invitation-Management Plugin in is very nice. I am using the free version, there was everything included what I need. I like the feature to generate user questions (in my case, if somebody needs a place to stay overnight, and if, if he/she needs a sleeping bag etc.) and select the people, who need to answer this questions. The feature to generate different pass-codes to allow the guest to admit or to change there needs later is also fine. It would be nice to see this code direct in the attendies overview. Due to the download feature, this is not a big problem. There is a small bug in the german translation, since the file is rsvp-de_DE.pot and not *.po and the editor will showup a lot of errors. Also the translation is not very nice, e.g. the term “RSVP” is not common in german and the (not used) direct translation (“Um Antwort wird gebeten” = “U.A.w.G.”) would also misleading. So my summary is a full 5-Star rating, since a 4.8 is immpossible to give 🙂

    I downloaded this because we needed an event registration form on our association’s website. After a bit of tinkering with the CSS the form looks great and the functionalities are all there. When a feature didn’t work as advertised support was extremely fast in fixing the issue and pushing out a new version.

    Really great option for a wedding RSVP. Especially if you need custom questions for specific guests, or for groups, e.g. one guest to RSVP for everyone in their family. There’s also an option to import all of your guests details. The UI is very basic, so it needed a lot of stylizing and customizing the CSS was a bit tricky to target all of the elements. I managed to make it look nice enough for my wedding website and very pleased with the results!

    No place to add an event. Could not find a place elsewhere either.

    This is great. It’s not busy with a bunch of features, it does one thing, but it does it well.

    I’m not a reviewer (normally) but I wanted to add an event to gauge number of RSVPs. I just wanted to publish the URL.. However, there isn’t one that I could find and adding an “event” as previous user explained seems not to exist.. Difficult. Uninstalled.

    Here is a screen shot of the Events page. No place to add an event. Could not find a place elsewhere either. Get Buy PRO in your face at every turn. I found it unusable in the free form. Did not pay for the other.
