I’ve had a very frustrating experience with WP Event Manager. What should be a straightforward plugin for managing events turned into hours of troubleshooting, broken functionality, and poor documentation.
Basic features like the REST API either don’t work as expected or return errors (404s), and there are warnings about improperly registered routes (missing permission callbacks), which shows a lack of proper maintenance. For a plugin that presents itself as a complete solution, this is extremely disappointing.
The biggest issue is that I actually had to rewrite parts of their own script just to get core functionality working properly. That should never be necessary with a production-ready plugin. Instead of saving time, this plugin ended up creating more work and headaches.
Integration with add-ons and other WordPress components is inconsistent, and many features either require additional paid extensions or simply don’t work reliably out of the box. On top of that, the documentation is limited and not very helpful when trying to resolve issues.
Overall, the plugin feels unfinished and poorly supported. I would not recommend it for any serious or production-level project unless you’re prepared to fix things yourself.
