The core kit

Everything an event needs

One plugin covers the full run of an event. No addon shopping list.

Events and recurring series

One-off events or daily, weekly and monthly series, free. Yearly and "second Saturday" rules come with Pro. Occurrences are pre-computed, so long series never slow a page down.

RSVPs with waitlist

Going, maybe, or no, with guest counts and capacity caps. When an event fills up, a waitlist catches the overflow.

Pro

Ticketing and payments

Sell paid tickets through Stripe, PayPal, or WooCommerce. Tax, booking fees, and coupons are built in.

Calendars and views

Grid, List, Month, and Upcoming views with pretty URLs and a visitor view switcher. Pro adds Week and Day grids.

Venues and organizers

A shared catalog of venues and organizers that any event can reference. Enter an address once, reuse it forever.

Member dashboard

The Manage Events page (/manage-events/), created on activation, where attendees track their RSVPs and organizers manage events, attendees, and exports in one place.

RSVPs

An RSVP flow people actually finish

Members RSVP in one click. Guests use a name and an email, then manage everything through a magic link.

  • Three answers, plus guests. Going, maybe, or no, each with an optional guest count.
  • Capacity and waitlist. Set a cap and the waitlist takes over when spots run out.
  • Custom questions. Ten answer types, from short text to dropdowns and checkboxes, required or optional. Switch the feature on first.

Ticketing · Pro

Sell tickets, keep every dollar

Eventbrite-style platforms take a fee on every ticket. Eventonomy Pro charges a flat license, and your gateway fees are the only fees.

  • Your choice of checkout. Stripe, PayPal, or hand checkout to WooCommerce.
  • Real money math. Tax rates, booking fees, and coupon codes computed at checkout.
  • Orders in your admin. Attendees, orders, refunds, and CSV exports live in your WordPress console.

The workflow

From draft to door

Five real screens from one event, in the order you, your visitors and your attendees reach them. Pick a stop to see it.

01You

Draft the event once

Use the front-end event editor or the admin Events screen. Title, dates, venue, tickets, questions and capacity sit on one form.

For developers

100% REST, zero admin-ajax

Blocks and admin screens run on the same public REST API under eventonomy/v1, Free and Pro alike. Your integrations use the exact contract the plugin uses.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is Eventonomy really free?

Yes. The free plugin includes unlimited events, RSVPs with waitlists, four calendar views, recurring events, and the member dashboard. Pro adds paid tickets and organizer tools on top.

Does Eventonomy use custom post types?

No. Events live in their own database tables, built for event data. Your event queries never compete with posts and post meta, so large sites stay fast.

Which payment gateways are supported?

Eventonomy Pro checks out through Stripe, PayPal, or WooCommerce. The free plugin handles free RSVPs and needs no gateway at all.

Does it work with my theme?

Yes. Every Eventonomy block is a standard WordPress block that inherits your theme styles. They work in block themes and classic themes without template overrides.

Can guests RSVP without an account?

Yes. A guest RSVPs with a name and an email address. They receive a magic link to manage or cancel that RSVP later, no login required.

Is there a refund policy?

Yes. Eventonomy Pro has a 30-day money-back guarantee if it does not work for you and our support team cannot fix it.

How do updates work?

Both plugins update from your WordPress dashboard like any other plugin. Pro updates and support require an active license key from wbcomdesigns.com.
