Say hello to Marcus AKA netweblogic
Great news for all ye Events Manager fans. Let us all say hello to Marcus Skyes that jumped on board, and is now co-authoring Events Manager.
Marcus contacted me a few weeks ago, sending a modded version of Events Manager. As soon as I gave it a try I realised that Marcus had done a wonderful job patching and integrating new features into EM.
Thanks to Marcus’s work now we have a number of frequently requested features:
- WP 2.8 support
- Events Categories
- WYSIWYG editor for events description (and you can add pictures too!)
- multi-day events, kinda
And much more.1
Since Marcus is expanding the plugin for some of his gigs, I invited him to co-author Events Manager, and I am glad he accepted.
I just tagged EM 2.0rc2 with Marcus’s integration, hope you’ll enjoy it as much as I did.

Notes
- Since these features are not yet fully documented, I suggest you take a look at the change log in the readme for instructions. [↩]

So glad that you have categories! Is there anyway that you can filter/create RSS feeds based on Category? I have 4 categories, and I like an individual feed for each one. Thanks!!!

Hello, I wanted to use your list on a certain page only events belonging to a specified category, but it didn’t work. So I took a look closer, and then I found that this line was the cause of the problem : $conditions [] = ” (eventstartdate >= ‘$today’ OR eventenddate >= ‘$today’ AND eventenddate != ‘0000-00-00′ AND eventenddate IS NOT NULL)”;
Which should instead be : $conditions [] = ” ((eventstartdate >= ‘$today’ OR eventenddate >= ‘$today’ AND eventenddate != ‘0000-00-00′ AND eventenddate IS NOT NULL))”;
Indeed, if you do not put the parenthesis, the sql query will apply the “OR” condition to the rest of the query. In my case, it made the $category condition useless…
Cheers, Nicolas.

Hi. We use your Events Manager plugin on our website to schedule weekly meetings. People ask if it’s possible to see who has rsvp’d to an event.
Is there any way to echo people and their guests to the event details page?
I also have problems with rsvp email setup. Where Can I ask formally and get some help?
