## Description

MiMe Simple Events and Calendar adds a native Events section to WordPress. It is
designed for websites that need clear event publishing without recurrence, ticketing,
interactive maps or the overhead of a large event suite.

#### Event publishing

 * Create events in the familiar WordPress editor.
 * Add a start, optional end, all-day state, venue, address and external links.
 * Use separate event categories and tags without mixing them with blog posts.
 * Mark events as scheduled, postponed or cancelled independently of their WordPress
   publication status.
 * Keep each event’s original timezone when the website timezone changes.
 * Use WordPress revisions and a safe Duplicate event action.

#### Display options

 * Native single-event and event-archive pages for classic and block themes.
 * Responsive event list and grid with optional filters and pagination.
 * Month and list calendar views with category and tag filters.
 * An accessible upcoming-event fallback when JavaScript is unavailable or the calendar
   cannot load.
 * Twelve dynamic Gutenberg blocks for individual event fields, plus a single-event
   pattern.
 * Three complete shortcodes: `[wpse_events]`, `[wpse_calendar]` and `[wpse_event_details]`.
 * Event JSON-LD on eligible single-event pages, with an administrator opt-out.

#### Optional Elementor integration

Elementor 3.35 or newer adds Event List / Grid, Event Calendar and Event Details
widgets, together with twelve individual event-field widgets. Elementor is optional:
the event editor, shortcodes, Gutenberg blocks and native templates work without
it.

Individual widgets can select a published event on an ordinary Elementor page. In
a dynamic event template they can use the current event context. Elementor Pro is
only required when the site owner wants to use Elementor’s Theme Builder; it is 
not required by this plugin.

#### Privacy by design

The plugin does not create visitor cookies, collect analytics or telemetry, load
remote scripts, or send information to MiMe or another external service. Calendar
requests stay on the same WordPress website.

Event content entered by site editors—including dates, venues, addresses and links—
is stored in the website’s own WordPress database. Published event information can
be visible in page HTML, Event JSON-LD, the WordPress REST API and the plugin’s 
bounded calendar feed. Do not publish private information as event content. Draft,
private and password-protected event details are excluded from public plugin collections;
protected event metadata is also removed from public core REST responses while the
WordPress password is still required.

External location and event links are contacted only when a visitor chooses them.
They open in an isolated new tab without passing a referrer. The destination website
has its own privacy practices.

Deactivation never deletes event data. Plugin deletion also preserves events and
settings by default. An administrator can explicitly opt into permanent cleanup 
under Events > Settings; shared media remains untouched.

The complete source, build instructions and security policy are available at https://
github.com/MilanMiMeOnline/WP-Simple-Events.

## Installation

 1. In WordPress, go to Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
 2. Select the official MiMe Simple Events and Calendar zip file and choose Install
    Now.
 3. Activate the plugin.
 4. Go to Events > Add New and create the first event. A valid start is required before
    publication.
 5. Add `[wpse_calendar]` or `[wpse_events]` to a page, or insert the matching Gutenberg
    or Elementor component.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin support recurring events?

No. Recurrence is deliberately outside the first version because a reliable recurrence
system needs a separate occurrence model, editing rules and migration design. Duplicating
a one-off event creates a draft and marks its dates for review.

### Does it include maps, geocoding or ticket sales?

No. You can store an address and an HTTP or HTTPS location link, but the plugin 
does not load an interactive map, call a geocoding service or sell tickets.

### Is Elementor required?

No. Elementor is an optional integration. Native templates, Gutenberg blocks and
shortcodes provide the complete core experience.

### Can Elementor Free use the event widgets?

Yes. The widgets can be placed on ordinary Elementor Free pages and can select a
published event. Elementor Pro is only needed for Elementor’s own Theme Builder 
functionality.

### Which timezone and time format are used?

New events capture the timezone configured under WordPress Settings > General. Existing
events keep their saved timezone if that website setting changes. Public times follow
the WordPress time-format setting. Events > Settings can optionally show the captured
timezone and applicable UTC offset.

### What happens to data when the plugin is removed?

Nothing is deleted on deactivation. Deleting the plugin also keeps events, event
categories, event tags and settings unless an administrator first enables the clearly
warned Delete plugin data option. Uploaded media is never deleted by that cleanup.

### Does the plugin track visitors or contact external services?

No. There is no telemetry, analytics, advertising, remote asset loading or MiMe 
service connection. The calendar reads its public data from the same WordPress installation.
A visitor can still choose an external location or event link, after which the destination’s
own policies apply.

### Where can I report a bug or security issue?

Ordinary bugs can be reported at https://github.com/MilanMiMeOnline/WP-Simple-Events/
issues. Do not publish vulnerability details, secrets or personal data in an issue;
follow the private process in the repository’s SECURITY.md file.
