Best Social Media Plugins for Event Planners (2026)
Event planners need social media plugins that pull double duty: they want live social feeds and attendee photos to build buzz before an event, and they want automated event imports to keep their calendars current without manual data entry. These two jobs are very different, so the right plugin depends on whether your priority is showcasing social proof on a venue or portfolio page, or keeping event listings in sync with Facebook, Eventbrite, and Meetup. The list below handles both, plus a couple of adjacent tools that some planners may find useful.
Plugins on this page are ordered by how strongly each one is built for event planners in this category, with PluginCheck's quality score (popularity, maintenance, support health, user ratings, and WordPress compatibility) breaking ties. Every plugin listed clears our quality bar.
Tagembed covers the broadest range of social sources in this list, including Instagram, LinkedIn, YouTube, and Google Reviews, and it specifically calls out event venues displaying attendee photos as a use case. At 10,000 active installs and a 76/100 rating from 59 reviews, it has a solid footprint without being dominant. It is the strongest general-purpose social feed option if your priority is embedding attendee-generated content alongside other networks.
This plugin lists event management companies as a stated use case and supports Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube feeds in widgets, posts, and pages. It has the highest active install count of the social feed tools here at 20,000, with a 78/100 rating across 126 reviews. If your planner site leans heavily on Instagram for portfolio and event gallery content, the slider and gallery formats are a useful match.
Walls.io is purpose-built for live social walls, which is a common ask for conferences, weddings, and activations. It lists wedding and event planning businesses and event promotion websites as stated use cases, making it a direct fit for the audience. The trade-off is scale: only 1,000 active installs and 6 ratings, so it is a niche pick rather than a proven mainstream choice.
Import Social Events shifts the category from display to data: it pulls Facebook events straight into WordPress, and its stated use cases are squarely aimed at wedding planners, event coordinators, concert promoters, and community organizers. It carries the highest rating on this list at 96/100 across 114 reviews. For planners whose biggest pain is keeping an event calendar synced with Facebook, this is the most directly relevant tool.
Poll Maker is a partial fit: it handles polling, not social feeds or event imports, and no stated use cases are recorded. That said, polls can double as light social engagement on an event site, such as date polls, venue votes, or post-event feedback. With 7,000 installs and an 88/100 rating across 90 reviews, it is a capable add-on, though it should not be the centrepiece of a planner's social media stack.
This is the most import-focused option, pulling events from Eventbrite, Meetup, and iCal sources rather than just Facebook. Its stated use cases include conference organizers, wedding planners, and tourism sites, all of which align with this audience. At 1,000 installs and a 92/100 rating across 54 reviews, it is a stronger source-diversity option than Import Social Events for planners working across multiple event platforms.
How to Choose
Start by deciding which problem you need solved first. If your site needs live attendee photos and a social wall, Walls.io is the most purpose-built, while Tagembed is the safer mainstream pick and Social Slider Feed fits best for an Instagram-first site. If your bigger headache is keeping event listings current, pick Import Social Events for Facebook-centric calendars or WP Event Aggregator if you rely on Eventbrite or Meetup. You can realistically pair one feed plugin with one import plugin, and skip the rest.
