The EventOn Action User Plus add-on transforms your EventOn calendar from a static display into a dynamic, interactive community hub. By empowering your users to take control of event submissions and management directly from the front end, this add-on removes the bottleneck of administrative tasks, allowing your community to grow organically while keeping your dashboard clean and focused.
Key Features
- Front-End Event Submission: Allow registered users to submit their own events directly through your website without needing access to the WordPress back-end.
- User-Friendly Submission Forms: Provide a clean, intuitive interface for users to input event details, including dates, times, locations, and descriptions.
- Event Management Dashboard: Give users a dedicated space to view, edit, or delete their submitted events, ensuring they always have control over their content.
- Admin Approval Workflow: Maintain full control over your site’s content with an optional approval process, ensuring all user-submitted events meet your quality standards before going live.
- Customizable Form Fields: Tailor the submission process to your specific needs by choosing which event information you want to collect from your users.
- Seamless Integration: Designed specifically for the EventOn ecosystem, ensuring that user-submitted events display perfectly within your existing calendars and widgets.
- Email Notifications: Keep both administrators and users informed with automated notifications regarding the status of event submissions and updates.
Use Cases / Who It’s For
This add-on is the ideal solution for any website manager looking to scale their event listings without increasing their own workload. If you are running a community portal, a local news site, or an industry-specific directory, EventOn Action User Plus is designed to turn your audience into contributors.
For community hubs, it allows local organizations and club leaders to post their own meetings and gatherings, keeping your calendar accurate and up-to-date without manual entry. For business directories or professional associations, it enables members to promote their own workshops, webinars, or networking events, providing them with valuable exposure while enriching the content on your site. By shifting the responsibility of data entry to the event organizers themselves, you save countless hours of administrative time while fostering a more engaged and active user base.
Setup / How It Works
- Installation: Install and activate the EventOn Action User Plus add-on alongside your main EventOn calendar plugin.
- Configuration: Navigate to the plugin settings to define which user roles have permission to submit events and to configure the submission form fields.
- Form Placement: Use the provided shortcode to place the event submission form on any page or post on your website.
- User Interaction: Registered users can visit the designated page, fill out the event details, and submit their event for your review.
- Review and Publish: As an administrator, you can review, edit, and approve submissions from the back-end, after which the events will automatically appear on your public-facing EventOn calendars.
Similar Plugins
While EventOn Action User Plus is specifically engineered to extend the functionality of the EventOn calendar, other solutions exist for different event management ecosystems. Plugins such as The Events Calendar Community Events or WP Event Manager with their respective front-end submission add-ons offer similar capabilities for users operating within those specific frameworks. However, if your site is already built around the EventOn design and feature set, the Action User Plus add-on provides the most cohesive and native integration experience available.
