Since the latest update of the plugin, users are no longer able to have their GigPress dates appear on top of a boxed background (which either makes the text blend in with the background photo, or forcing all other pages to be boxed & in no way manipulatable).
I love this app for keeping fans up-to-date on shows, past & present, but in recent times it’s been nearly unusable for myself & my fanbase.

I don’t know why everybody says it is “intuitive”, it is not. In order to change the style of it, you have to modify the .css file and upload it via .ftp. That takes extra time. Plus, the browsers take some time to register the changes, so you have to wait 10 minutes to see if the colors you chose are right. Then, you have to go through all the css styles, and find what you want to change, everything is explained but… it’s not intuitive at all.

Used it a number of times years ago, and glad to see it’s still around, stable, and gets the odd update since being taken over.
Would hate to see it disappear or become obsolete. Would 100% pay for it.
Well built, intuitive, and really useful.

I loved this plugin until I looked at my site today and the DATES were no longer on the listings!
Last support was a YEAR ago, so I am changing plugins.

Best concert listings plugin. Period.
Please keep Gigpress alive, it’s amazing in its versatility and quality. The visual customisations and backend exceed ANY other plugin out there so far.

GigPress is wonderful, but I can’t really rate it 5/5, because the default show listing isn’t responsive.
In order to make the show listing responsive, you need to do quite drastic changes to the templates. Not for the inexperienced.
I hope this will change, now that Modern Tribe is behind the wheel.

I’ve been using Gigpress for years and it’s still the most solid events plugin. Never had issues!

I use this plugin on serveral sites, it works perfect and does a really good job. With csv export data is save for any future changes.
A cool feature would be a search function for locations to edit them. Looking through the whole list is a task if one forgot the exact location name… :p
Other thing would be to have one central database to access from different band sites. I log every gig on my personal and on the band site. As long as there isn’t a gig every week it’s not a big deal.

Been using this one for years on multiple musicians’ and bands’ sites. Totally solid. Easy to work with, very thorough documentation.

Great plugin. The developer didn’t take any shortcuts and goes above and beyond to make this friendly for anyone to use. I wish more plugins were developed this way. There is tons of documentation for developers to integrate this into their theme and make this plugin completely customized to themes. For people who are fine with using the plugin as is, it has great shortcode options and a widget to quickly add events to your site. The most valuable part of the plugin though is the fact that it works with google structured data so your events show up in google search results.
Most of the good event plugins on www.ads-software.com require you to purchase a premium version to actually get it to work how you want. This plugin gives you everything up front. Would recommend this above all other event plugins for musicians.

Lots of options. Shortcodes, template tags, widgets… a fairly robust and great plugin. Love it!

I use Gigpress for an independent singer/songwriter. It does all we need and more – plus it was easy to fine-tune to our special needs. Great!

I’m a musician and have used it on my sites, friend’s Websites, and commercial Websites. It’s a fantastic plugin that should be part of any band Website powered by WordPress.

This app is a godsend. Very easy to use and helps make booking shows a much more streamlined process. Great job, guys. What a brilliant tool.
If at all possible in future updates, this is the only feature on my wishlist:
Allow users to update & tag their Upcoming Tour Dates Page. Right now, the app lets you tag or create a WP Post with the show info, which is very handy, but the WP Page with the full list of all of our show dates is what really needs to be updated. If a Post & Page could be tagged at the same time, even better.
Again, fantastic app. Thanks for all of your hard work.

I use this plugin for our community band performance archive along with a plug in called “Say What?” to change the field names to suit my needs. GigPress is very easy to use. It looks good “out of the box” and is easy to customize with CSS. The plugin plays very nice with other plug ins.

Just downloaded this plugin and trying to understand how it works… want to change the order of the columns, want to change font and size, colours, etc and no idea how to do it… support for this plugin seems to be minimum ??

i’ve tried a lot of event plugins before but this one is perfect!

a plugin masterpiece!!
Rating: 5 stars
I wasn’t sure how I was going to handle tour dates for my client. I expected I would have to use custom post types and wasn’t looking forward to that hassle. Fortunately, GigPress was just what I needed. And the customization is so easy. Thank you for that! More plugin developers should manage the CSS and PHP templates like this. Great plugin!
