Will upgrading to pro fix the event time issue to allow “am” and “pm” automatically.
Will the repeating events feature allow each event to stand alone i.e. look like single event even though it is monthly.
Will you help with converting old calendar items to Event Calendar Pro (I only see an export option through excel)
Will I be able to create an “Upcoming Events” page that lists only certain categories so no one needs to switch calendar views.
That’s It. As soon as you can comment on these issues I can go ahead and sign up. Thanks so much.
Hi there, Itha–thanks for getting in touch!
Good questions. Let’s try to tackle them one at a time.
Will upgrading to pro fix the event time issue to allow “am” and “pm” automatically.
I’m not aware of any current issues with the am and pm suffixes, but The Events Calendar uses the default time settings in WordPress (Settings > General) for time formatting and some additional formatting options under Events > Settings > Display. PRO does not change these settings.
Will the repeating events feature allow each event to stand alone i.e. look like single event even though it is monthly.
Yes, all instances of a recurring event series do in fact show up as unique instances in the calendar. There is a settings to display only the first instance of a recurring series in List View, which is located in Events > Settings > General Settings.

If you’re upgrading from The Events Calendar to The Events Calendar PRO, you won’t need to do any converting at all. Both plugins work together and will be installed and activated together. The Events Calendar PRO is an add-on plugin that extends the existing The Events Calendar with additional functionality.
If you’re upgrading from another calendar, there is a CSV importer that is included with The Events Calendar. Here’s a tutorial on how the CSV Importer works.
Will I be able to create an “Upcoming Events” page that lists only certain categories so no one needs to switch calendar views.
Both The Events Calendar and The Events Calendar PRO include provide unique URLs for event categories. So, for example, if you have a category called birthday, that URL would looks like: [your-site]/events/category/birthday. You can use that URL to link visitors directly to the events for a specific category.
We also offer another add-on called Filter Bar, which allows your visitors to filter events based on a number of variables, including categories, right from the calendar.
That’s It. As soon as you can comment on these issues I can go ahead and sign up.
I do also want to let you know that we offer a full refund on any purchases within 30 days. That should give you plenty of time to test drive PRO and see if it works for you. 🙂
Does this help answer you questions? Please let me know.
Cheers!
Geoffsounds good thanks
