Events Rotator is a plugin that displays events in a rotator fashion anywhere on your Sitefinity site. It slides through all the events you have available on your website and displays a nicely formatted thumbnail, title, and time of the event. A click of the slideshow will take you to the full event page. A great way to showcase your events!
Events Rotator is FREE to use and distribute as you wish. If you enjoy my work, please consider making a donation to help me expand on features and optimizations.
