Release: The Events Calendar 2.0.1

Its been a busy week at modern tribe events HQ. We had lots a awesome new users and old users upgrading. The good news is that our soft launch went wonderfully, validating our business plan (leaving the code canyon marketplace and going solo).

You are all so much more creative in your usages than we imagined and therefor of course, the community found some bugs for us to fix. We’ve separated those into a 2.0.1 release (more urgent bugs) and 2.0.2 (still bugs but less urgent).

The biggest effort in 2.0.1 was a refactoring of the template tags and advanced functions. What started as documentation became a bigger effort. We figured that if we were going to take all the time to carefully document all the template tags so that you would all use them, we should make sure they are all clean and presentable. We also broke out the advanced functions from the template tags as these are tools primarily for plugin integration and more experience WordPress devs.
