Events in Gozo

EventsInGozo.com aims to serve as a centralized hub for all events taking place on the island of Gozo. Organizers will create and submit their events, ensuring that each listing includes essential details for interested visitors, such as a concise description, dates, times, location, category, and accompanying pictures.

The plugin can then be installed in a third-party WordPress website and this retrieves specific events which are tailored for that particular website. Data is retrieved securely through the use of authentication. These authentication details must be requested from https://eventsingozo.com/request-api-plugin/ and once the application is accepted, the corresponding details are provided which must be set up in the plugin’s settings.

How can I display events on my website?

Events can be showcased on your website using a shortcode. You can insert these shortcodes into a page, post, or widget to display the events. Upon plugin installation, you can configure these shortcodes within a section labeled Instructions.

What display options are available for showcasing events?

Currently, there are three display options for presenting events on your website: minimal list view, grid view, and carousel view.

How do I filter specific events on my website?

Within the shortcode utilized for displaying events, you have the ability to selectively choose categories and/or tags. These attributes, along with others, determine the content displayed on your website.
