Event management and calendar plugin for WordPress

sugarcalendar.com ↗

Sugar Calendar stops being a second copy of your schedule, with two-way Google sync.

◆Current state
Sugar Calendar Events now syncs with a chosen Google calendar in either direction, or both, and adds Google Meet links to the event editor. Deleted Google events move to the Trash on the site rather than disappearing. Days earlier it added Gia AI, a chat that turns a sentence into a draft event, edits existing events and reports on registrations.
◆Where it's heading
The plugin's sweep of manual work around an event has moved from attendee tasks to event creation itself. Both October releases remove double entry: Gia parses a description into fields, and Google sync removes the second calendar. Each post is still a how-to rather than a release note, with versions left unstated.
◆Prediction
Attendee answers and registration data remain the obvious material for Gia, which can already report on registrations. The posts do not say whether Outlook or other calendars will follow Google.

    Two-way Google Calendar sync and Meet links arrive

    Two-way Google Calendar sync removes the double entry that kept websites out of date, and it extends the release pattern of taking one manual job off organisers. Careful delete handling sends removals to Trash.

    Gia AI turns a sentence into a draft event

    Gia changes from a quick-links menu into a chat that builds draft events from a description and can answer registration questions. It moves event creation from forms to conversation, and drafts keep a person in the loop.

    Collect the Details Your Event Needs From Every Attendee

    Custom registration questions arrive on both ticket checkout and RSVP, built per event with five field types and required flags, answers attached to the attendee record. Real and useful, but the fourth release in a row extending the same event-management arc rather than opening a new one.

    Email Everyone Who Signed Up for Your Event

    Emailing everyone who signed up moved inside the plugin. The same instinct as registration forms — the follow-up that previously happened in another tool.

    Set Different Ticket Prices for One Event

    Multiple ticket prices for a single event — early bird, tiers, member rates — replacing the workaround of duplicate events.
