Allow Site Registered Users to Import Faceebook Events from Front End

[Nitin]

Hi Team

Is there a way, I can create the facebook events importer meta box on front end. Then my registered users will be able to import events in one click.

Thanks
Nitin

Hi Nitin and thanks for reaching out.

That’s an excellent idea! I wish I could say that there’s a way to do that out of the box but I’m afraid not. It would be some sort of hybrid between our Facebook Events and Community Events plugins, which is an interesting combination.

I’m sorry for the bad news, but perhaps you would be willing to share that idea on our feature request forum? I’m interested to see if others would find that useful as well and, if so, how that might work.

Thanks!
Geoff

Hi Geoff

WPgeodirectory social import plugin does something similar. you give fb page/event url on front end and import data on the form boxes and then submit. It could be an extension/feature of community events which will work with FB events plugin.

I’m not looking for out of the box solution, which I’m aware, does not exist. Technically, if there is a way. I can spend some time and try to get it working.

Regards

Thats a rad idea! It sounds like there could be a way to make it happen with custom development, especially if that’s something you’re able and willing to do. I’d still like to see that in the feature request forum because then it would get on our radar as far as looking into it if others find interest as well.

I’ll go ahead and close this thread but thanks again for reaching out and for sharing the idea! Feel free to hit us up with a new thread if any other questions comes up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
