From Simple Calendar Pro feeds to a public board
Simple Calendar Pro syncs Google Calendar feeds into WordPress as a feed post type with synced source meta and category mappings. The admin is fine for an organiser who already lives inside Google Calendar, but it leaves attendees, hosts, and stakeholders with no shared way to vote on which feeds to keep, request a new public calendar to sync, or flag the feed quietly broken since the last upstream change in Google.
SleekView Feedback reads the Simple Calendar Pro feed post type, the synced source meta, or a saved query joining feed IDs with attendance counts. Each row becomes a card with title, vote count, status pill, and category tag. Pick the attendance column for upvotes, the synced status flag for the pill, and the feed source for the tag, and the board sorts itself the moment the next sync from Google Calendar runs again.
The shift is from a buried feed admin to a shared public queue. Organisers, hosts, and loyal attendees land on the board, upvote the feeds worth promoting, flag the events that broke after the last upstream change, and the next schedule is informed by data the whole team can see at a glance together.

Comparison
Simple Calendar admin vs SleekView
Simple Calendar Pro admin
- Synced feeds sit in admin only the organiser ever opens and triages each morning by hand
- No way for attendees to upvote which Google feeds or categories should return next year at all
- Cancellation requests live in inbox replies, not next to the synced event in the feed admin
- Status of each sync is buried in row meta with no shared public view for the production team
- No public queue to show members which feeds are fresh, stale, or quietly paused right now
SleekView Feedback
- One card per synced Simple Calendar Pro feed with title, votes, status pill, and feed source tag
- Upvote writes back to the source column so future planning can sort by score and demand
- Filter by source feed, category, or date using any meta key the Simple Calendar sync writes
- Embed on a public page or behind a member login with one shortcode or block in minutes
- Organisers stop guessing demand and start scheduling from a real attendee signal each week
Features
What SleekView Feedback gives you for Simple Calendar Pro
Feed voting built in
Each Simple Calendar Pro synced feed becomes a votable card. Members see which feeds the community wants kept, which recurrences are loved, and which sources are quietly unused. The board acts as a living wishlist of your sync roster.
Sync issues surface fast
Add a Bug category and attendees can flag broken recurrences, missing cancellations, or stale feed colours in one click. The flag lives next to the synced feed row so the organiser can fix it before the next sync from Google runs again.
Votes shape the schedule
Because votes write to the source column, you can sort future planning by score, give high voted feeds more visibility, and quietly drop the ones nobody attends. The decision about what to keep synced becomes a number per feed row.
Audience
How teams use the Simple Calendar feedback board
Community feed wishlist
Members vote on which Google Calendar feeds should keep syncing and which new ones to onboard. The organiser ships the sync roster that matches the top of the board instead of guessing which feed matters most.
Public sync triage
Attendees report broken recurrences, missing cancellations, and stale feed colours on the board. Each flag links to the synced event so the organiser can fix the feed before the next batch runs from Google.
Source and host feedback
Each source feed or host has its own filtered board where the audience votes on what to keep public. The organiser sees which sources deserve more visibility and which ones quietly need to be dropped from sync.
The bigger picture
Why a Simple Calendar feedback board matters
Simple Calendar Pro is excellent at the mechanical job of mirroring upstream Google calendars into WordPress: pulling feeds, expanding recurrences, exposing them as posts. It is much worse at telling you which of those synced feeds your audience actually wants more of. Most organisers run the same sync roster they ran last year plus a couple of guesses based on whoever forwarded the loudest inbox reply about a missing event.
A feedback board changes that pattern. Synced feeds stop being a fixed mirror imposed from the top and start being a living wishlist that the community can rank. Upvotes give you a cheap, honest signal about which feeds deserve more visibility and which sources are quietly killing attendance.
Sync bug reports about broken recurrences and missed cancellations show up on the same board, so problems get fixed before they spread to the next batch. Because every vote writes back to the synced row, the next time you plan a quarter the data is already there in WordPress.
Questions
Common questions about SleekView Feedback for Simple Calendar Pro
No. SleekView Feedback reads directly from the Simple Calendar Pro feed post type, the synced source meta, and the recurrence rows the plugin maintains. You point it at the source, pick the columns for votes, status, category, author, and title, and the board renders without sync.
 Yes. SleekView ships with anonymous voting backed by cookies so any visitor can upvote synced events without an account. You can also require login if you want the board restricted to past ticket holders or paying members, and the same view handles both modes.
 Each visitor gets a cookie scoped vote token per item, and logged in users are tracked by user ID. The plugin exposes a rate limit per IP so a single household cannot spam the board, which keeps the score honest without forcing every attendee to create an account.
 Yes. SleekView accepts a WHERE clause when you wire up the data source, so you can filter by start date, source feed, or any meta key Simple Calendar writes. A second board on another page can show past synced events as a public archive while the homepage lists upcoming.
 Bug, Idea, and Request are just category values on the row. They show up in the WordPress admin alongside the synced event, so the same person managing feeds can see and resolve them without leaving Simple Calendar. CSV export is also available for support.
 They write back to the synced column inside WordPress. Your own queries, dashboards, and reports can sort future planning by score. Several venues use the score to gate which feeds get promoted, which makes the board operational instead of just decorative.
 Both. SleekView ships as a Gutenberg block, an Elementor widget, a Bricks element, and a classic shortcode. Theme developers can also call the render function from PHP and pass a configuration array, so you can mount the board on any synced feed template you have.
 The view paginates server side and only loads the rows it needs to render the current page. Indexed columns stay fast even on long tables. Scoping the board by upcoming dates or active feeds keeps both the query and the audience focused even at scale.
