Eventbrite is the world’s premier event-management service, and we’re happy to announce two new ways to add Eventbrite events to your self-hosted WordPress site!
We’ve offered Eventbrite integration on WordPress.com for a while, with two dedicated themes. While this made getting your events on your WordPress site easier than ever, it wasn’t available to self-hosted users, and you were limited to only the two themes. Both of these issues are solved with new additions to the WordPress.org theme and plugin repositories.
Originally developed by Voce Communications, the Eventbrite themes that have been available on WordPress.com are now in the WordPress.org theme repository, and the plugin that powers them is also available for download. Together, the themes and the plugin provide full-featured Eventbrite integration for single and multiple events, including a calendar view and a widget. Huge thanks to Voce for continuing to support their work in the .org space!
Automattic has also developed an Eventbrite plugin, called Eventbrite API. This plugin is designed to work with any theme, with no explicit support required. It also provides a selection of simple tools that allow theme developers to work with events as easily as custom loops, making Eventbrite theme integrations more fun to build than ever. We’ll have a post next Monday demonstrating how to take advantage of this new plugin in your themes.
Eventbrite and WordPress are a perfect match, and we now have two great plugins for bringing them together. See you at the show!
