Link Google Calendar vs Revisual – Event Communication for Google Calendar

A plugin that allows administrator to set Google Calendar embedded link in admin back-end and use a shortcode to place on a page, post or sidebar.

A great event still falls flat if the calendar says one thing and the flyer says another. Revisual closes that gap. Your Google Calendar is already where your events live. Revisual transforms it into a complete event communication system — distributing your programme automatically across your website, printed materials, partner sites, emails, and more. One update in Google Calendar, and every channel stays in sync. 🎯 The Problem Revisual Solves Event information is hard to keep consistent across channels. A time changes, a venue updates, a new session is added — and suddenly your website says one thing, your printed flyer says another, and your email said something else entirely. Revisual makes your Google Calendar the single source of truth, then handles all the distribution for you. No copy-pasting. No manual updates across five platforms. No events that fall through the cracks. 🌐 One Calendar. Every Channel.

Your WordPress site never stores event data — all events are fetched via a secure API from your Revisual account. This keeps your site lightweight and ensures it won’t be slowed down by event queries. Embedding is simple: a tiny script or WordPress block pulls events dynamically without impacting your site’s performance. Revisual handles caching on its side, so events load instantly for visitors. All connections are encrypted. No visitor data is collected. No cookies are tracked. 🗺️ Roadmap We’re actively developing new features, including: More calendar integrations RSVP functionality 💡 Feature Requests Share feature ideas with us: Revisual Help Center Support You can find help desk articles and contact support at Revisual Help Desk.
