Scene Relay

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. A separate optional WooCommerce module in Pro 1.5.1 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.
