simple-events-calendar

We've been using this plugin for years and just wanted to share my appreciation for it. While it always kept working, it's been quiet for a while but the recent update has been great. No major changes but the tabbed interface really works. Thanks for building and maintaining this!

I thought this plugin was working great. But then I added a new event to the google calendar and realized it doesn't update the calendar on your Wordpress unless you manually open the calendar page and hit "update" each time you add an event via google calendars. Actually even if you are adding post based events, every time you add a new event you need to open the calendar and "update" it again.

The plugin is not internationalized, hence unsuitable for non-English sites. A pitty, because it looks like a good plugin.

I've been searching for this type of an events listing for ages. This one is just perfect in it's simplicity. Thank you.

It's an events manager. Not a calendar. Don't name a plugin "calendar" unless it displays events on the frontend in calendar format. Edit: Other than that, the plugin did display the events on the frontend very cleanly, and the backend was easy to use. The dashboard for adding events could flow a bit better, but then again it's insanely lightweight and straightforward.
