To ensure Eventful runs smoothly with The Events Calendar plugin and delivers the best possible performance, your hosting environment should meet the following minimum requirements.
Minimum Requirements #
- PHP: 5.6 or higher
- MySQL: 5.6 or higher
- WordPress: 5.0 or higher
Recommended Requirements #
- PHP: 7.4 or higher (8.x strongly recommended)
- MySQL: 5.7+ or MariaDB: 10.3+
- WordPress: 6.0 or higher
Most modern hosting providers already meet these requirements. If you’re unsure, check with your hosting provider to confirm your server environment.
💡 Tip: Keeping PHP, MySQL/MariaDB, and WordPress up to date not only improves performance but also ensures maximum compatibility with Eventful’s layouts, shortcodes, and builder integrations.
