My problem was quite a thing, making the plugin work with my Wordpress theme of choise - Newspaper. The support team really went beyond their ways to help me, and now everything works. See the plugin in action at judoroland.com

Easy to install and nice way to showcase my events. After some changes from FB's side I had to re-install the plugin and then needed support as I am unfamiliar with coding and such. The support team was super swift and professional and sorted the glitch, so now everything is running great again. Recommending them 100%.

Very useful plugin if you want to add your fb events to wordpress. The support is also very helpful and fast.

I was trying to authorize this plugin with no luck. So after a few emails back and forth, one of their support reps actually scheduled a skype call with me where he solved my problem through one screen sharing session. Great service!!

What was a great plugin, has been subjected to a change in Facebook Terms. While I want to support this plugin, it ultimately no longer works. There isn't much point downloading it but it was good while it lasted
