The Lowdown:
Needing an events calendar for your site well now there are dozens to choose from and working though them has proven to be quite a challenge. This one is an events manager that allows you to sell tickets to your event with their pro version. I did encounter some issue with not being able to access thier website while testing this out so some things I can’t really comment on. It has a booking system but no way to collect wotout premium module. Prett ice google map intergration pretty easy to use for the most part. The ability to customize user roles for the plugin. All in all not too bad.

Grid

Grid is a containerist landing page editor. Grid allows Editors to easily create and maintain Landing pages, built on a grid Containers and Boxes that you drag and drop on the page. I have a current landing page project that was a PSD to PHP job, and we have so many issues in coding that could be solved in WordPress with just a few clicks, so I went looking around for a landing page creator and shis is something new that came up.
