This is a very simple event plugin. Some websites that use WordPress as a CMS display information about future events. But keeping the list of events current is a pain. So this plugin simple displays a list of all future events.
To be listed, an event must have its own post or page. To tell the plugin that the page is an event, you add a custom field (if you can’t see custom fields and you’re using WordPress 2.7+, you may need to add it by selecting screen options). Add a custom field with the name event_date and the value YYYY-MM-DD (e.g. 2009-02-03 for 3rd February 2009). Then save the page.
To ouput the list of events add the text [events_list] to any post or page. You can see a demo at the <a href="http://www.emw.org.uk/events/en/" rel="nofollow ugc">Evangelical Movement of Wales</a>.
As I said, it’s very simple. There are no options to tweak, no settings to change. But if it’s what you need, you won’t want to change anything!

Listo is a simple plugin that supplies other plugins and themes with <a href="https://github.com/rocklobster-in/listo/tree/trunk/modules#lists-and-subgroups" rel="nofollow ugc">commonly used lists</a>.
<h4>Usage</h4>
<pre><code>$countries = listo(

 )
);
</code></pre>

The documentation is non-existent as is evident from the number of users asking for help

Nice plugin, but requires better documentation

Have a lot of default lists, but i couldn't customize with my own lists
