My Calendar – Accessible Event Manager

Great plugin - I tried many calendars for my class schedule and this was the only one that WORKED! I love all the detailed setup options for developers, with the ability to change text and colors. Haven't played with the templates yet but I'm excited to do so. 

Had an issue and developer was super-responsive, resolving it and fixing with care. Thank you!

Finally - A Robust Calendar that WORKS!


This is a great plugin! I have used this on many different kinds of sites and after several years there has yet to be a problem I have to solve with a calendar that this plugin cannot handle!
