Of course this is partly because we use a multisite implementation of Wordpress. A more mature product would have a smoother upgrade path - or at the very least the ability to export, reinstall and import data. Another issue is the plugin requires too much CSS customization. Lack of support makes it difficult to back out of these issues. Maybe time to look for alternatives. (Have been using TEC for a decade on various sites.)

Avoid The Events Calendar at all costs Avoid The Events Calendar at all costs. It caused SEO issues stating duplicate pages for every event created. Then after over a year of using it with the Mega Max Menu plugin it suddenly became incompatible and was breaking the site 2-3 times a day for months. We spent nearly a grand on a website developer to identify and fix the issue. The issue was solely the Events Calendar Pro plugin which we deactivated and created an entirely new Events page. I reached out for a refund which The Events Calendar team declined immediately. Read their reviews, they are terrible to work with.

Liking it so far but feel a bit bait & switched I'm in the development phase...using this plugin for class registration on a website. So far I'm happy with the functionality. And, I've gotten decent support when I've had a few questions. What I'm super unhappy with is all of the add-ons required to achieve the functionality we need. They show a demo event listing page on their website page...what they fail to mention is that it takes TWO paid plugins to set it up at a whopping cost of $180/year. One to be able to embed shortcodes on pages, the other for an event filter...RIDICULOUS. At this point, it's costing $300/year to use these plugins.

Ridiculously poor support Tried this twice, almost 1 year apart. Both times had issues where it wouldn't work on two separate websites running different themes. Both times experienced VERY poor support from "support" people such as Truman Dorn and Marta Kozak, with an attitude of, "Well, you should probably research and figure out what the problem is." So wait, why are YOU here?

Absolutely THE WORST PLUGIN EVER Absolutely THE WORST PLUGIN EVER Avoid this thing LIKE THE PLAGUE Cost us serious $$$ and cost me SEVERAL DAYS of my life including twice where I got ZERO SLEEP Due to NIGHTMARE APP- time zone flaws- sell-out falsities, search function complete failure, tickets unavailable, events not searchable or showing up right- events showing in totally wrong time zones and also disappearing 12 hours early due to their HORRIBLE HORRIBLE APP RUN AWAY!! And support is CRAP and nonexistent. NEVER EVER AGAIN
