What it does
Event organizers often collect feedback through separate surveys or social media, which keeps those opinions away from the event pages where new visitors make decisions. This add-on brings reviews onto your EventON-powered website. Attendees submit a star rating and a written review through a form, and a summary of that feedback is placed in the event card. It suits conferences, festivals, eco-tourism trips, performances and other events where honest opinions from past participants help others decide.
You control how the feedback is collected and shown. The submission form can include up to 5 custom fields, such as dropdowns, input fields and secondary rating areas, and entries are checked as they are typed. You can highlight phrases inside reviews, show featured, recent or all reviews, and let visitors browse everything in a lightbox. Rating data can be public or kept for admin use only, and email alerts tell you when a new review arrives so you can moderate it.
Best for
- Sites already running the EventON calendar plugin
- Conference, festival and performance organizers
- Tour and eco-tourism operators collecting attendee feedback

Questions about EventOn Event Reviewer Add-on
Does this work without EventON?
No. It is an add-on for EventON and works with EventON events and event cards. Reviews are attached to your EventON events, and the rating summaries appear inside the event cards that EventON displays.
Can I ask attendees for more than a star rating?
Yes. Along with the 5-star rating and written review, the form can include up to 5 custom fields. These can be dropdowns, input fields or secondary rating areas, so you can ask about specific parts of the event.
Can I keep ratings private instead of showing them to visitors?
Yes. You can choose to show rating data publicly on events or keep it reserved for admin use. Keeping it private lets you collect feedback for planning future events without displaying it on the event page.
Can I display reviews on a page other than the event?
Yes. The [evo_reviews] shortcode displays all reviews anywhere on your site, such as a testimonials page. It supports filtering by rating, so you can choose which reviews appear.
Is EventOn Event Reviewer Add-on free?
The code of EventOn Event Reviewer Add-on is licensed under the GPL, so anyone may use, change and share it. GPL Feast is a paid service: a plan or a single purchase gives you the download. The developer's own support, licence key and online services are not included.
