REC Event Creator for WordPress Plugin Directory
REC Event Creator is a WordPress Plugin Directory app by radareventcreator.
AppRanks verdict
Generated from live marketplace data — refreshed daily
REC Event Creator is a newly-listed WordPress app with a limited review volume. Category data on the canonical marketplace listing is currently incomplete, so AppRanks falls back to platform-wide rather than category-relative comparison for this listing. no published reviews yet means feature claims are unverified by the wider merchant base. Without a published review base, the only fit-signal available is the developer's own documentation plus the marketplace's listing-quality audit (linked below). 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.
Pros
- +Published by radareventcreator — established developer track record
Cons
- −No public reviews yet — fit and reliability are unverified

How REC Event Creator works
Show full descriptionShow less
This is intended to be a simplified interface for non-technical users to propose radar.squat.net events using a specified group.
As admin, you can configure a location and select a list of options for tags.
The form can be displayed anywhere on your WordPress page by simply including the shortcode [recevcr-event-creator].
Events created with the form will be listed as proposals in your radar dashboard where you can moderate them.
External Services This plugin uses the radar API to create events. The event data is submitted directly to the API, and no data is stored on the server.
To be able to display a list of possible event locations and tags, the plugin makes requests to the radar API.
Development If you want to contribute to this project, the repository is located on codeberg.org.
Stack This project uses composer for dependency management and Nette Forms to handle form validation/submission logic, it uses Twig to make the form rendering more straightforward.
Setup
There is a container setup including WordPress, MariaDB and phpMyAdmin for local development and testing. Simply install docker and run docker compose up. The containers will start up and give you access to the local instance.
On first boot you need to configure the WordPress installation when opening the url. If you messed something up and want a fresh start, simply remove the volume that contains the wordpress installation.
For the plugin to work, you need to install the necessary php libraries. Execute docker compose exec -w /var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/rec-event-creator wordpress composer install while the docker setup is running.
The plugin code is mounted via volumes in the plugin directory of the WordPress installation. So it can be activated in the admin interface and every change in the repository code is directly available in the docker container.
Configure and use the plugin as described in the usage section.
Translation Translations are done on translate.codeberg.org. Contributions are very welcome.
