Cohost
Connect your WordPress site to your Cohost account and show upcoming events as a list, with click-through to per-event profile pages — natively in your theme. No iframes. No redirect to a third-party ticketing page. Cohost is the headless platform for event managers — events, attendees, ticketing, scanning, check-in, and workflows — and this plugin embeds your event catalog into any WordPress theme. Authentication: API token (Bearer). OAuth support is planned. Brand-aligned UI: uses the canonical Cohost palette (dark #161616, light #F2F2F2, accent square #f97316) and Inter typography. Easy to override from your theme. Shortcodes [cohost_events] — events grid. All attributes are optional: limit — events per page (default 12) columns — grid columns 1–6 (default 3, display only) from, to — ISO date range (e.g. from="2026-06-01" to="2026-12-31") sort, order — e.g. sort="startDate" order="asc" Example: [cohost_events from="2026-06-01" to="2026-12-31" limit="6" columns="2"] [cohost_event id="…"] — single event profile. **The `id` attribute accepts either an event ID or an event slug** — the Cohost API resolves both at the same endpoint, so `[cohost_event id="evt_abc123"]` and `[cohost_event id="summer-festival-2026"]` both work. When a configured “Events page” exists, clicking a card navigates to /{page-slug}/{event-id-or-slug} and the same page renders the profile. Brand The plugin ships the canonical Cohost dark “C” app icon and dark wordmark. The accent square is always #f97316. The full Cohost brand guide is published at https://cohost.vip/brand. Privacy & data This plugin makes outbound HTTP requests to two Cohost-operated services: Cohost API (default https://api.cohost.vip/v1) — fetches the events the site displays. Each request includes the Bearer API token configured in Cohost → Settings. No user data leaves your site; only your token is sent. The base URL is configurable for self-hosted or staging Cohost environments. Cohost templates manifest (default https://templates.cohost.vip/wp/templates.json) — fetched when an admin opens the Cohost → Templates page. Returns a list of starter layouts the admin can apply. No user data is sent. The URL is configurable under Settings → Advanced. The plugin does not: Track end-users or store cookies. Send page-view analytics, telemetry, or installation pings. Embed third-party scripts on the public-facing site. The plugin caches API responses in WP transients (60-second TTL for events, 15-minute TTL for templates) to minimize outbound traffic. All cached data is removed when the plugin is uninstalled. For Cohost’s privacy policy covering data on the Cohost side, see https://cohost.vip/legal/privacy.
Event CLNDR
A handsome, fully featured event calendar for your WordPress site. Developers: look no further, the highly appraised CLNDR.js is now here at your disposal on WordPress straight out of the box. Tweak the CLNDR.js options and fine-tune the master stylesheet and Bob’s your uncle – a painlessly elegant calendar for use in any page/post or widget. With a simple event manager bundled in, you’ll be on your way in seconds without the need of any third party apps or services trying to charge a premium just for the use of the sidebar widget. Usage Use the Instances page to create and modify different displays of your events. Based on the name you chose for your instance, a shortcode will be generated (and shown in the table) for use in any page, post or “Text” widget content field. Each instance can each have a different CLNDR.js template and include more JS options, so the event display could range from a full calendar to a text list of each event. Not a developer? Not to worry, the plugin comes pre-shipped with a couple of front-end calendar instances to get you on your way. For most people, the default options won’t need editing, and all that will need to be done is to edit the master stylesheet to change the colours to match your theming. If you don’t know CSS, this is a great opportunity to get your fingers very slightly dirty – the section of the stylesheet you’ll want to edit is fully commented with which colours do what.
