Effortless Event Creation and Management

Eventide Scheduler makes creating and managing events simple. The user interface is designed for quick event entry. You can add titles, descriptions, and locations easily. Define start and end times using intuitive date and time pickers.

Customize events to fit your needs. Choose from a wide range of colors to visually categorize events. Create custom categories for event types like meetings, workshops, or appointments. Extend event details with custom fields. This allows for adding information unique to your events.

Schedule recurring events with ease. Set frequency (daily, weekly, monthly, yearly) and specify end dates or occurrences. Automated reminders keep attendees informed. Configure reminders to be sent via email or other channels before the event starts. Manage attendees efficiently. Track registrations and send updates directly from the scheduler. Streamline event creation for maximum productivity.

Stunning Calendar Displays That Wow

Eventide Scheduler empowers you to create calendar displays that are both functional and visually appealing. Several views are available, including monthly, weekly, daily, and a convenient list view. Choose the perspective that best showcases your events. The monthly view provides a broad overview, while the weekly and daily views offer granular detail. List view is perfect for users who prefer a straightforward agenda.

Customize the appearance of your calendars to seamlessly blend with your website’s branding. Tailor colors, fonts, and styles to maintain a consistent visual identity. Draw attention to specific events with color-coded categories, making it easy for visitors to identify events of interest. Enhance user engagement with event pop-ups that provide detailed information upon hovering or clicking. These pop-ups can display event descriptions, times, locations, and any other relevant details previously configured. You can also embed calendars on multiple pages of your website, providing easy access to event schedules across your site. These flexible display options ensure that your events are presented in an engaging and informative manner.

Seamless Integration with Your Favorite Form Builder

Eventide Scheduler connects with form builders, enabling users to generate events directly from form submissions. This integration streamlines event creation, saving valuable time. The process involves mapping form fields to event fields. For example, a “Name” field in the form can map to the event’s title. Similarly, an “Email” field can populate the event’s contact information. A “Preferred Date” field becomes the event’s start date. This field mapping is typically a straightforward, visual process. Once configured, each form submission automatically triggers the creation of a corresponding event in Eventide Scheduler.

Consider a scenario where you’re offering consultations. Clients fill out a form with their contact details and preferred time. Eventide Scheduler then automatically generates a consultation event. Another example is a workshop registration form. Submission creates an event, blocking the time slot on your calendar. This efficient integration avoids manual entry and potential errors. This ensures all scheduled appointments seamlessly populate your calendar.

Developer-Friendly Customization Options

Eventide Scheduler offers developers a wealth of options for extending its functionality. Its flexible API allows deep integration with other systems and applications. Extensive documentation provides a clear understanding of the plugin’s architecture. This helps developers build custom solutions with confidence. Hooks and filters provide strategic points for modifying existing behavior. These allow for tailored functionality without altering the core code.

Developers can create custom integrations to connect Eventide Scheduler with external services. They can extend its capabilities to support unique scheduling workflows. One standout feature is the event object. This allows for programmatic manipulation of event data. Another is the filtering system. This grants developers precise control over event queries. By leveraging these tools, developers can create scheduling solutions perfectly adapted to their specific needs. It empowers them to craft experiences beyond standard scheduling solutions.

The Power of Open Source

Eventide Scheduler embraces the principles of open source. This provides unprecedented transparency. Users can inspect the code, understanding its inner workings. This fosters trust and confidence. Community involvement is a core tenet. Developers worldwide can contribute improvements and bug fixes. This collaborative approach results in a more robust and feature-rich scheduler. You are welcome to contribute back to the main repository.

The ability to freely modify the plugin empowers users. Customize it to meet unique requirements. Redistribute it as part of larger solutions. This flexibility is unparalleled in proprietary systems. Remember that Eventide Scheduler stands independently. It builds upon the initial work of GravityKit. We deeply respect that original creation and development. The open-source nature encourages innovation while acknowledging its roots. It allows users to adapt and extend its functionality without restrictions. It’s a commitment to a collaborative future.
