Auto filter events by keyword?

[Mike]

Hello,
I am looking for a tool to help sync music events of the same genre from multiple face-book pages and list them on one calendar on a web-page.
Is there a way to“filter” out of the type of events this is syncing from Facebook to the calander” For example, Say I am syncing information for “Rock Music Shows” from multiple venues Facebook event page, but the venues event pages from facebook list other types of music shows as events. For example, it list Country music, or rap, is there a way to automatically filter out that content so it syncs only rock shows? Perhaps to only sync keyword “Rock” or #Rock ?

Hi there,

Thanks for emailing support. For Facebook imports, it filters by URL. So if there is a specific URL that only shows rock events for an event page, then it will pull in events from that URL.

Hope that helps.

Thanks,
Brendan

Hi, thanks for the reply. Nah, that wont help. There are maybe 100-200 venues in my city, they offer all kinds of shows. The point of the calendar would be so everyone could go to one location and see all rock shows on a calendar page. Unfortunately, the manual admin filtering of this is to overwhelming. I need it to filter by keyword “Rock” or “#Rock” it sounds like this is not possible unfortunately

Or alternatively, can all the venues in my city be synced from FB to upload all events into the calendar in “draft” form so they are hidden and can be manually scanned by a human admin for relevance (if they are the correct music genre). Defiantly not ideal, but I am looking to what options I have to accomplish my goal, if its even possible. Lastly, is there any free trial or money back guarantee? Thanks again

Hi there,

Yes you can have them import as drafts. We offer a 30 day refund it it doesn’t meet your needs.

Thanks,
Brendan
