In reply to: [Eventbrite API] Self-Hosted WordPressI think that is what they mean by wordpress.org = self hosted as opposed to wordpress.com
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Display Eventbrite Events] Event Is not coming immediatelyThe free plugin has a 24 hour cache to protect the performance of your site.
The upside is that it uses standard html pre – tags and classes. So even if you remove the plugin it isn’t the world.
and it does still work to a reasonable extent with the Gutenberg ‘code’ block too.
Thinking about it the sensible thing to do would simply to lift the most common css styles and create a plugin that extends the Gutenberg code block. In terms of coding probably an easier way to get a long term supportable plugin.
my question about GDPR was referencing the OP @exitas comment
“Can the plugin get reviewed and maybe updated?
Even if it’s just to raise the release number.
I’m getting alerts and this would be considered GDPR incompliant 🙁 (and I like the plugin)”I see no relationship between the update status of a plugin ( this one ) and GDPR.
On that basis, that it works, and it doesn’t have any known security issues, I can’t see why it can’t be still used?
If the author is who i think he might be, this project probably was a university project and now he is a holding a significant software engineering post as a major company, so understandable that this takes little priority for him.
However, the software still works perfectly for me on several sites, despite the ‘warnings’ that it hasn’t been updated.
( p.s. I have no idea why such warning ( I don’t get any ) have anything to do with GDPR, if the software is secure and doesn’t capture send user data the what ha sit to do with GDPR )
As a plugin author – I’d ask is it commercially attractive to support this ( or a similar ) plugin? We ( plugin authors ) know now that the ‘donation model’ doesn’t work as simply no one donates and that is why many plugins get abandoned, as there is no incentive to keep putting in the work and support with no return.
I’ve look at the code of this plugin and it isn’t trivial.
“Is there any way one can take over this plugin we cannot afford to lose this plugin”
As plugins are GPL anyone can fork a new version and publish that e.g. as “Crayon Syntax Highlighter Reborn”

In reply to: [Display Eventbrite Events] Latest updateI’ll mark this question as answered, ok?

In reply to: [Eventbrite API] Eventbrite API plugin statusFollowing this announcement, I have now incorporated the functions I need from this plugin, so my plugin (below) no longer requires this plugin to be installed.
Forum: Plugins
In reply to: [Display Eventbrite Events] Latest updateThe Eventbrite API plugin can be safely disabled and removed if you are not using any of their features such as the Events Page Template.
With version 2.0 I have incorporated the code line of Eventbrite API plugin, as Automattic announced that they will no longer be actively maintaining or supporting their plugin ( https://wordpress.org/support/topic/eventbrite-api-plugin-status/ ) so it it not prudent for me to have a plugin that is dependant on an un-supported plugin.
However, the code in my plugin is entirely separate and does not clash with the Eventbrite API plugin.
I did consider adding a ‘nag’ to remove the Eventbrite API plugin, but for several reasons ( mainly as I can’t tell if you are using it for something else, and generally people don’t like ‘nags’ ), as it does not harm, I decided against such a ‘nag’.
WordPress.org rules forbid me to discuss paid for features here.
The plugin has a contact link on the settings page. Please use that.
I will close this here now.
