For thematic groups in BuddyPress, it allows the creation of meeting series accessible only to members of a given group.

Integration and personalization

The plugin offers pre-built styling options that are easy to match to your website's appearance. Shortcodes and Gutenberg blocks make it easy to place a calendar or event list anywhere on the page. Additional fields and filters allow you to expand functionality with specific information, such as registration requirements or email reminders (customizable notification templates without having to rely on technical support).

In terms of SEO, Simple Events Pro generates clear links to individual events and allows you to add meta descriptions and structured data for events, which increases their visibility in search results and facilitates crawler indexing. Event descriptions can include keywords, locations, and tags, improving relevance to user queries.
