Designed for clubs, street festivals, and similar events — organizers create shifts, assign participants, or let volunteers sign up themselves. **Features:** * Create shifts with time period, category, and min./max. volunteers * Public frontend: volunteers register, sign up for shifts, and manage their profile in one place * Volunteers can sign up and cancel themselves (with optional cancellation deadline) * Optional “Full shifts” section so volunteers can still see fully booked shifts( disabled by default) * Automatic checks: e.g. max. 2 shifts/year & no time overlaps * Manual creation and assignment of volunteers by admins — assign existing volunteers from a dropdown or create new accounts on the fly, including offline volunteers without an email address * Per-shift organizer user, name, and email — override the global notification sender per shift with a linked WordPress user plus optional manual overrides * Automatic reminder emails X days before a shift starts * CSV export per shift or for all shifts * Admin overview with filters (upcoming/past/all, category, volunteer, date) and sorting * Dashboard statistics: registered volunteers, upcoming shifts, empty shifts, understaffed shifts, filled/open spots * Bulk email tool: send custom announcements to all or opted-in volunteers — processed in batches, with a real-time progress bar, delivery failure tracking, and a confirmation email to the sender * Volunteers can opt out of announcements via their profile page * Send history log with subject, message preview, recipient count, and failure count * Integration with Nextend Social Login ### License This plugin is free software under the GPLv3 or later. ## Орнотуу 1. Install the plugin via the WordPress backend or upload the ZIP file 2. Activate the plugin 3. Go to Pages Add New and insert the `[eventadmin]` shortcode — this is the main volunteer page (shows registration for new visitors, and the shift selector + profile for logged-in volunteers) 4. Create shift categories under Shifts Categories 5. Create your first shifts under Shifts Add New 6. Optional: create separate pages for `[eventadmin_profile]` or `[eventadmin_shiftselector]` if you want dedicated pages for those features ## FAQ.KG ### Do volunteers need an account? Yes, volunteers must be logged in to view and join shifts. ### How can I assign volunteers manually? In the admin dashboard under “Volunteer Overview” for each shift via form. ### What happens when shifts are full? By default, full shifts are hidden on the volunteer page. You can optionally enable a “Full shifts” section under Settings so volunteers can still see them (read-only, with a disabled button). ### What is the minimum volunteers field for? You can set a minimum number of volunteers per shift. The admin dashboard will highlight understaffed shifts with a warning. Enforcement (e.g. blocking the shift from appearing) is not yet applied – this is informational only. ## Сын-пикирлер ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/4bc6daf381926f38025a1e8390866f6a23a5fb80cadb5292efe761bb25a539db? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Really nice!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/really-nice-206/)󠁿 [utill](https://profiles.wordpress.org/utill/) Май 5, 2026-ж. 1 reply Very intuitive and gets the job done! ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/bb6a5f8633af8170490728d3aba26f587c466fe5229af2cf991c75f899462629? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Very nice app](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/very-nice-app-24/)󠁿 [marceeck](https://profiles.wordpress.org/marceeck/) Март 27, 2026-ж. 1 reply I for sure like this plugin. I’m building a site to register volunteers as tour guides in a small holocaust museum. I researched at least 10 event management options and all were to complex, pricey or not up for the simple tasks. I love to see this plugin grow in the wp community. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/1298c2924a6f87ab2734306983545ab708b70882a8f87606392f8d13d776eb00? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Great App](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/great-app-804/)󠁿 [rpclarke42](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rpclarke42/) Март 15, 2026-ж. 3 replies Using this app with a community charity group to help manage volunteers and events.
