This plugin is very simple. It fetches events from upcoming.org based on a given location. You need the (free) upcoming.org API key which you can find here: http://upcoming.yahoo.com/services/api/keygen.php To include the local events, use this shortcode in a post/page: [upcomingorg_events]San Francisco, CA[/upcomingorg_events]. You can use other formats of locations as well, such as ZIP codes. In the settings you can define:

  • Number of events to show (will obviously be lower if not that many events are available for your query).
  • Radius to search around the given location
  • Show (or don't show) the event images if they are available
  • Display the upcoming.org logo with the results or not

To edit the CSS, modify the upcoming.org_events.css file in the plugin folder upcoming.org_events/
