About this plugin
Scene Relay turns WordPress into a focused local events publication. It gives visitors a fast event calendar and public profiles, gives organizers a front-end workspace, and gives site owners a purpose-built moderation console.
Included in Scene Relay Core
- Editorial event homepage, searchable discovery, weekend view, artist directory, and venue directory.
- Public event details and artist, venue, and organizer profile pages.
- WordPress-native organizer registration and sign-in, profile management, event drafts, and event submissions.
- External ticket links with a validated redirect that keeps raw third-party URLs out of form actions.
- Review-safe moderation: edits to published listings remain staged until approved, so the public URL stays stable.
- Categories, genres, neighborhoods, audiences, venues, timezones, admission labels, featured images, and organizer/artist relationships.
- Basic identity, brand colors, hero copy, footer copy, sender identity, and policy settings.
- Read-only REST endpoints for public event and profile collections and details.
- WordPress privacy-tool integration, conservative uninstall behavior, demo data, and Multisite-aware installation.
- A documented, versioned extension contract for add-ons.
Scene Relay Core does not process ticket purchases or store payment-card details. An event can link to the organizer’s existing ticket provider.
Optional Scene Relay Pro add-on
Scene Relay Pro is a separately installed add-on for operators who need memberships and usage limits, promotion inventory, advanced homepage modules, analytics, newsletters, CSV imports, galleries, artist video, venue maps, advanced white-label controls, payment integrations, optional WooCommerce-native event tickets, and protected commercial updates.
Core remains fully usable without Pro, and both editions use the same established scenre_ data model so enabling or disabling the add-on does not convert or delete content.
Pro’s direct Stripe, PayPal, and Square modules are for organizer memberships and promoted placements sold by the site owner. 1 can provide native ticket inventory, checkout, passes, refunds, and check-in. In this release all ticket funds go to the site owner’s WooCommerce gateways; there are no split payments or organizer payouts.
