Looking for an Event Manager with Built-in Gallery

    I built a website recently for a local NPO, decided to go with WP because it appeared to be the simplest platform for managing news articles, upcoming events and past events.. Unfortunately, trying to set up a website that somebody with a not-so-technical mind can maintain without having to phone me every time something needs to be updated.

    I’m trying to set this up so the NPO owner/employees can do the following:

    • Create an entry for an upcoming event (future date)
    • When the aforementioned event has past, have it move automatically to ‘past events’.
    • Edit the past event (preferably from the same page/interface as it was created) and upload photos of the event.

    The photos uploaded into a past event must be shown on the event itself, similarly to how Portfolio Slideshow works where photos attached to a post are displayed as thumbnails.

    So far, I’ve tried Events Manager, Events Manager Extended, Advanced Event Registration, Post Event 2, and a few others that I can’t remember the names (and deleted very promptly after trying).

    Are there any event manager plugins for WP that have photo gallery features already built in…?

    Hey, I’d completely forgotten about this thread… Haven’t seen it in ages. Unfortunately I didn’t find any plugin that would do it all. But if I remember correctly, I ended up using WP Events with gallery shortcodes in the templates to display attached photos where applicable.

    The site is down at the moment, had some hosting problems so it’s moving to another server. I actually need to rework a few things on it though, so if it helps, when it’s up and running I’ll double check how I did the events and post back here.

    That would be great. Appreciate it!
