AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
Gigs Calendar is a mixed-rating WordPress app with a limited review volume. It is listed in the Shows category on WordPress Plugin Directory, which AppRanks treats as the canonical taxonomy node for ranking and competitor comparison. 4 reviews put it in the early-traction tier — useful for early-stage stores willing to be on the leading edge. Early-traction review counts are sensitive to single launch periods or feature events, so a 30-day re-check before bigger commitments often resolves whether the trend is sustained. Paid-only pricing means evaluating fit on the marketplace listing or via the developer's documentation before installing. AppRanks tracks rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position daily — the figures on this page reflect the most recent scrape from the canonical WordPress Plugin Directory listing.

calendar of their gigs within WordPress. It’s meant to be as easy as possible
for both the musician and the fan. It even manages venue data complete
with mapping and ticket links.
Compatibility notes = Browser =
This plugin’s administration pages are currently only supported fully by the
Firefox and Safari browsers. When I am approaching version 1.0, I plan to
develop full support for IE7 and Opera. If you would like to know more about
my decision to focus on Firefox and Safari, feel free to get in touch with me.
WordPress If you are using a WordPress version less than 2.3, you may need to create the
database tables manually. You can find the SQL in tables.sql. Get in touch with
me if you need help doing that. You might also want to consider updating to the
most recent version of WordPress.
MySQL If you are using a MySQL version less than 4.1, filtering the gig posts from
your normal blog entries will be disabled. You will need to filter those based
on the category you select in the settings page using another plugin. I suggest
the Advanced Category Excluder (https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-category-excluder/) plugin.
