<p>This plugin adds a widget to display your upcoming events (gigs) from <a href="http://last.fm/" rel="nofollow ugc">Last.FM</a>, with<br />
options for displaying full venue details, linking, etc. Events are displayed using valid<br />
<a href="http://microformats.org/wiki/hcalendar" rel="nofollow ugc">hCal</a> <a href="http://microformats.org/" rel="nofollow ugc">Microformat</a> code (makes no<br />
difference to the display, but plays nicer with the web in general).</p>
<p>This plugin is still in development, but is stable enough that I use it on my own blog. Once other<br />
people have used it successfully for a while I’ll feel happier labelling it stable.</p>
<p>Please feel free to try the plugin on previous versions of WordPress, I think it may work on 2.2, maybe lower.</p>
<p>Please let me know how you get on.</p>
<h3>Requests</h3>
<p>I’m simply noting requests here, I’ve not necessarily looked into how possible any of these are or how much effort they might require.</p>
<ul>
<li>BUG REPORT: A lot of the timestamps for events aren’t correct therefore, you see “495 months ago.” because it shows a timestamp of 1969 for some reason even though the dates are correct on last.fm. Is there a way you could have it to just display the date instead of trying to calcuate the time until? (Reported by <a href="http://www.deadlydesigns.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Mike</a>)</li>
<li>REQUEST: Would it be possible to have the link to last.fm events open in a new window so it will not load over top of the blog? (Requested by <a href="http://www.deadlydesigns.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Mike</a>)</li>
</ul>


Last.FM Events

This plugin adds a widget to display your upcoming events (gigs) from Last.FM on your Wordpress blog (using the hCal Microformat).

<p>This plugin is geared toward bands and musicians to manage and display a<br />
calendar of their gigs within WordPress.  It’s meant to be as easy as possible<br />
for both the musician and the fan.  It even manages venue data complete<br />
with mapping and ticket links.</p>
<h3>Compatibility notes</h3>
<p>= Browser =<br />
This plugin’s administration pages are currently only supported fully by the<br />
Firefox and Safari browsers.  When I am approaching version 1.0, I plan to<br />
develop full support for IE7 and Opera.  If you would like to know more about<br />
my decision to focus on Firefox and Safari, feel free to get in touch with me.</p>
<h4>WordPress</h4>
<p>If you are using a WordPress version less than 2.3, you may need to create the<br />
database tables manually.  You can find the SQL in tables.sql. Get in touch with<br />
me if you need help doing that. You might also want to consider updating to the<br />
most recent version of WordPress.</p>
<h4>MySQL</h4>
<p>If you are using a MySQL version less than 4.1, filtering the gig posts from<br />
your normal blog entries will be disabled.  You will need to filter those based<br />
on the category you select in the settings page using another plugin.  I suggest<br />
the Advanced Category Excluder (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-category-excluder/) plugin.</p>
