Useful Plugin, Excellent Support
I've used Eventful on just the one site so far but I wish I'd known about it before. The display options on the free version gave me enough additional control on the display of event feeds that I didn't need to pay for the pro version of Events Calendar. Also, there was an issue with later events displaying on the full events list. I raised this in the forum and got a quick response. When their suggested actions didn't fix the issue, I was advised to raise a support ticket, which I did. The team came through with a fix within a couple of hours. Very impressive considering I don't have their pro subscription.

Awesome tool for sites with The Events Calendar
I am loving the layout options for The Events Calendar. I'm using this plugin for clients who want more control over their layouts but don't want to always come through a developer to get small changes. It's doing the job wonderfully.I am also impressed with the fast and responsive support. Thanks guys, keep it up!
