Great plug-in, but there is something to improve.

Is it possible to make a drop-down filter for venue, categories, tags, organizations or Table with sorting of events by fields?

The search widget requires additional input of the value in the field ...

For example, when I search by date or by category in the widget - what should I enter in this field so that everything shows records? Probably need to make it optional.

As noted earlier on this forum - does not work [aec_search]... I Need to place a search on the page

Thank you.

The shortcode [aec_search] only displays the search results and this shortcode works only in the page that is configured to show search results under the "Pages" settings menu. There is no shortcode at the moment to display search form in pages. Our next version will have a shortcode to do this. As an immediate solution, you can use a shortcode widget plugin and add our search widget inside your page.

Also, I have taken a note of all your suggestions and I assure we will have them in future. But, requires sometime.

I use this patch to allow search by date only:
