Features

GatherPress includes a growing list of features to help communities organize and manage events.

Current Features

• Event scheduling: Set dates, times, and detailed event information.
• Attendee registration: Let users RSVP to events.
• Configurable RSVP Mode: Control RSVP sitewide with four modes — enabled for all events, per event (default on), per event (default off), or disabled entirely — with a per-event override toggle in the editor.
• Open RSVP support: Allow non-logged-in users to RSVP to events, with a sitewide on/off control.
• Guest support: Allow attendees to include additional guests.
• Anonymous RSVPs: Optionally list attendees as anonymous (only visible to admins).
• Email notifications: Send emails to all members, event attendees, non-attendees, or those on the waitlist.
• Subscribable calendar feeds: Attendees can subscribe to a live, auto-updating calendar feed for a venue, a topic, the events archive, or the whole site — distinct from the one-time “Add to Calendar” download. See Calendar feeds.
• Online and in-person events: Add venues with maps or online meeting links.
• Mapping: Supports OpenStreetMap (via Leaflet) and Google Maps, rendered as interactive maps or as static map images.
• Static venue maps: A server-rendered map image option alongside the interactive map — it loads faster and works without JavaScript.
• Venue address autocomplete: The venue address field suggests real addresses as you type, powered by open geocoding.
• Multiple event management: Handle multiple upcoming or past events simultaneously.
• Multisite-ready: Centralized plugin support for networks, while allowing each site its own settings.
• Network-wide settings: Multisite administrators can set GatherPress options once at the network level, with per-option control over what individual sites inherit.
• Block editor compatible: Create and customize events using WordPress blocks.
• Internationalized: Fully translatable and ready for global use.
• Layout flexibility: Add or remove blocks as needed, or include synced patterns for reusable content across events.
• Extensible for developers: Attach event capabilities (dates, RSVPs, venues) to your own post types via post type supports, and register custom URL endpoints with the same primitives that power the calendar feeds.
