Events Block For The Events Calendar


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.


Confusing interface, but must have to access useful Addons

The Events Block for The Events Calendar lets you showcase your events from The Events Calendar right within the Gutenberg pages.
