wp-meetup

Stopped working. Now works with oauth.

I added this plugin to the front page of a social website that I manage. Even though it hasn’t received a lot of updates lately, I found it still works perfectly for my WordPress 4.9.5 install. The plugin does exactly what I needed: place my event calendar directly on my home page. Thank you!

This is a fine plugin if you need something fairly simple to display your events from meetup in a clean way that aligns with your Wordpress theme. I am using this with the latest Divi Theme (v3) on a Wordpress v4.6.1 with very good success. I prefer the list view as it resizes fairly well all the way down to mobile view. However, the grid calendar view could be a lot better as it does not resize well at all. It does work well in full screen mode, but it seems unpredictable at other sizes or in a column as it flows over or even off the screen. Also in the event page view – the big red meetup button and date area that are in the grey box cannot be edited without some coding knowledge and is not very nice to look at (IMHO). I find it distracting and would prefer to have some options about how that displays. I would also like the option to TURN OFF the Big Red Meetup Button altogether. All in all, I think it is good. It is in fact – the only one I can find. I hope that there are future updates and that this doesn’t go away. I would be willing to pay for a premium version if it had these features and if it was FULLY responsive in both the list mode and the grid calendar mode. Hope this is helpful to you.

For people that say this plugin is broken: Follow the simple instructions. I will say that getting your Meetup API Key can be confusing at lease it was for me. But I got it and my site is showing 6 different meetup groups on one calendar. Thank You for making this plugin. I love it.

The plugin is not working. it does not connect events from meetup.com. Does not display anything on the calander or list. The plugin does not work.

Does a great job and gives the functionality to pull events from meetup.com which gets you a long way versus not being able to at all. Of the plugins I’ve seen this is the only one that does as much as it does. I use both the calendar and event list widget as well as the short codes to place them on pages. The events are also searchable as well as it pulls past events into your database. Great overall. In terms of improvements I think it would be great to have more options in terms of controlling the sizing, formatting, number of lines displayed, etc. Finally, the only glaring omission that I personally need/want is an option to have the link to meetup on the event display open in a new window/tab instead of leaving the site when clicked.
