Hi – I’m looking to implement a new events management system with our website http://www.uniteboston.com
What are some examples of websites that are already using the Events Made Easy plugin? I’d like to get a sense of how this widget runs before I upload it – thanks!

Here’s mine:
I’m running it on a private site and it’s working well. We’re not using the paid option, but I really like it. It’s functional, easy to use from the user side (I have learned to do some CSS styling to around the add and remove forms to make it easier tell the difference – we have them on the same page for simplicity).
It takes a bit to learn how to configure it (not a steep learning curve, but it’s full featured enough that it has one. Flexibility always adds some complexity). The only real “feature” that’s missing is the ability to display events sorted by date – which is an important function. If I can find the time, I’ll look at hacking it to do this… but for now, we’re working without it.
I’m using it on a not-for-profit site and it works extraordinarily well. Franky is doing an outstanding job! I’m also not using the paid option. I’ve formatted it using CSS to look similar to a popular search engine’s calendar. If you want to take a look, email me at info@ncwsa.org and state that you’d like your message forwarded to the new Website Coordinator. I will then email the test site URL to you. The site is not yet public, but probably will be by the end of December. Please respect our private test site by not passing the URL around to friends (or enemies, for that matter).
I’m not quite sure what 3dperuna means by writing that he can’t display events sorted by date. It’s easy to do so. Obviously, by definition, any of the calendars sort by date. But I also have the events displayed in a list ordered by date, allowing filtering by scope (month) and event categories. The filters are not yet completely implemented.
