Hello Lukas,
thank you for this code. I'm glad I found it. However, the timestamp seems to be ignored. It always shows me only future events, even when I change the timestamp to the past. Maybe my understanding of the plugin functions is to limited. In case you have any pointers for me how to get the code to show also past events, I would be grateful for them. In any case, thank you very much for your work.
Kind regards, Petra

This gist is one of the most helpful things on the internet, ever. Thank you so much.

Thanks for posting this. I'm having issues with the $post_title = $instance->get( 'post' )->post_title; part of this. Fatal error: Call to a member function get() on a non-object.

I've done a dump on $instance and i see all values I need but can't seem to call them.

Thoughts?

thanks a lot.
One question.
Is not possible to show the post feature image?

@somenamethatisnttaken : it seems that for now, it's not an object but an array which is returned by A1ec.
So i had to add $post = get_post($instance['post_id']);
and replace $instance->get( 'post' ) by $post for code after

@nelero - Can you elaborate on your comment? I'm not quite following-
