Doesn't work
Set everything up and it errors out and crashes the page when I add the shortcode

Good with localisation flaws
This plugin is absolutely what I needed for my student web, however there are some serious limitations (but I am using the free version). THE LIMITATIONSThere is no way currently to edit the look of the different grid/list styles other then editing the CSS and also in the EU the DD/MM/YYYY format is often used, but there is no way to change it in the settings other then edit the PHP file itself, this also applies to the short form labels "jan", "feb" instead of "January", "February". And events that last more then 1 day don't show it in the blue box, but only in the description. THE POSITIVESOther than that it's the best calendar plugin in Wordpress. Responsive design, links to the calendar itself, links to google maps etc. Everything you need in a simple small package, that is highly customisable (if you know your PHPs), modern and clean.
