## Description

**The simplest way to showcase Eventbrite events on your WordPress site.**

This plugin helps bridge the gap between WordPress and Eventbrite, while retaining
the great user experience that Eventbrite provides. Your events live on Eventbrite
where they belong — this plugin simply displays them with a beautiful, modern design.

### Why Choose Blocks for Eventbrite?

**🪶 Truly Lightweight**
 Unlike traditional event plugins, we don’t create WordPress
posts, custom tables, or complex database structures. Your events are fetched directly
from Eventbrite and intelligently cached for blazing-fast performance.

**🛒 Seamless Checkout Experience**
 Using Eventbrite’s embedded checkout, visitors
can register and pay without ever leaving your website (SSL required). No redirects,
no friction — just conversions.

**🎨 Beautiful Out of the Box**
 Modern card-based design with clean typography,
subtle shadows, and smooth hover effects. Each event displays the image, date, venue,
price, and a quick-details tooltip — all styled to look great on any theme.

**⚡ Smart Caching**
 Events are cached using WordPress transients, refreshing every
minute. Your site stays fast while always showing up-to-date event information.

### Features

 * **Native Gutenberg Block** — Just add the block and paste your API key
 * **Embedded Checkout** — Let visitors register without leaving your site
 * **Event Status Filter** — Display live, draft, or all events
 * **Flexible Sorting** — Order by start date or event name (ascending/descending)
 * **Event Name Filter** — Show only events matching specific keywords
 * **Limit Events Displayed** — Control exactly how many events appear
 * **Custom Button Styling** — Match your brand with custom colors and text
 * **Date & Time Formatting** — Use WordPress formatting or customize your own
 * **Quick Details Tooltip** — Visitors can preview event summaries instantly
 * **Venue Information** — Automatically displays location details when available
 * **Live Editor Preview** — See exactly how your events will look while editing
 * **Translation Ready** — Fully internationalized for global sites
 * **No Database Bloat** — Zero custom posts, zero custom tables

### Perfect For

 * Event organizers who manage events on Eventbrite
 * Businesses that host regular workshops, classes, or meetups
 * Nonprofits promoting fundraisers and community events
 * Anyone who wants events on WordPress without the maintenance headache

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to `/wp-content/plugins/blocks-for-eventbrite`, or install
    directly through the WordPress plugins screen
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen
 3. Create or edit a page/post and add the “Events Card” block from the Eventbrite 
    category
 4. Enter your Eventbrite API token key in the block settings panel
 5. Click ‘Save Api Key’ — if valid, you’ll see your organization name confirmed
 6. Customize the display options to your liking
 7. Publish and watch your events appear beautifully!

## FAQ

### What do I need to use this plugin?

Just an Eventbrite account with organizer permissions. The plugin connects directly
to your Eventbrite organization to pull your events.

### Where do I get an API key?

Log into Eventbrite and visit [eventbrite.com/platform/api-keys](https://www.eventbrite.com/platform/api-keys/)
to generate your private token.

### Will this slow down my site?

No! Events are cached locally and only refreshed once per minute. Your pages load
from cache, not from Eventbrite’s servers on every request.

### Does the checkout really work without leaving my site?

Yes — as long as your site has an SSL certificate (https://), visitors can complete
their registration and payment in a modal overlay. No redirects needed.

### Can I display events from multiple Eventbrite accounts?

Each block connects to one Eventbrite account. You can add multiple blocks with 
different API keys if needed.

### Does this create posts or custom post types?

No. That’s the beauty of this plugin — your WordPress database stays clean. Events
are fetched from Eventbrite and displayed dynamically.

### Can I filter which events are shown?

Absolutely. Filter by event status (live/draft/all), sort order, event name keywords,
and limit the total number displayed.

### Will this work with my theme?

The plugin uses a self-contained design that works well with most themes. The card
styling is intentionally neutral to blend with various designs.

### Is this plugin actively maintained?

Yes! The plugin is maintained and updated for WordPress compatibility. Check the
changelog for recent updates.

### 󠀁[Great plugin, wished the time was localized](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-plugin-wished-the-time-was-localized/)󠁿

I do online events and get people from multiple timezones. The plugin displays the
time in how it’s been set in EventBrite. I wished there was an option to display
the time in a converted format in the local timezone with the timezone displayed.
that would be wonderful.

### 󠀁[Great for Being Free](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-for-being-free/)󠁿

 [wpanonymous](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wpanonymous/) Maarec 9, 2022

Given that this plugin is free, it does a lot. Not only does it show your Eventbrite
events on your page, but it keeps up with event changes quickly (every 1 minute?),
and people can checkout without leaving your site. A lot of the other Eventbrite
plugins force you to upgrade in order to checkout on your site.

I added a ticket with a suggestion which Jon fixed within a day. The plugin works
well and I like how the events are displayed.

 [gone2alpine](https://profiles.wordpress.org/gone2alpine/) Mee 20, 2021

If you are looking for an easy way to automatically get eventbrite events connected
to your site, this is the best answer. It’s super easy to set up. There’s no importing
or copying and pasting events. Did I say it was free too? Thanks Jon!

 [bgdrivein](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bgdrivein/) Mee 18, 2020

I tried to find a way to get eventbrite to display in a good looking way and this
plugin is fantastic. It would be nice to be able to customize more than the color
of the signup button but otherwise, it’s fantastic!
