Eventr plugin lets you use your blog as an event management tool. You can create an event – the plugin will let people register for the event – it can also show a list of all the attendees. Once the event is done, you can deactivate the event and no more sign ups will be allowed.

One other thing – Welcome to Plugin Week. I am going to release one wordpress plugin each day, every day for one week(ie. Monday to Friday – I’m too lazy to work on Saturdays and Sundays). Each day you will get a new plugin by me. This is the first plugin in this series.

Installation

• Download the zipped file from the Eventr page in WordPress Plugin Repository.
• Extract and upload the contents of the folder to /wp-contents/plugins/ folder
• Go to the Plugin management page of WordPress admin section and enable the Eventr plugin
• Go to the Events Management page(Tools > Manage Event) to create or edit events.

Screenshots

See it in Action

• Registration Form
• Attendee List

This is NOT a demo page – its a registration for an actual event(Barcamp Kerala 2008) – so please don’t enter your details to test it. That is, don’t enter your details unless you want to register for the event. If you plan to come for the event, feel free to register.

I made this plugin especially for this event. And I am glad to know it saved Aravind(a fellow barcamper) a lot of trouble

Earlier WordPress Plugins

These are my earlier wordpress plugins(not part of the plugin week series)…

Feedback

If you have any suggestions or notice any problems with the plugin, post it in the Eventr forum.

Keep your eyes peeled for the next plugin – to be released tomorrow.
