Buddypress and community events

[IgnitionMktgNy]

Is possible to integrate the community capabilities of buddypress and leverage the community events plugin for those users to create events? In addition, use the events pro to allow each user (in buddypress) to manage their calendar?

Hi,

Thanks for the interest in our plugins.

Unfortunately, we do not have any BuddyPress specific features as you describe.

Community Events could be used on a BuddyPress site, but would only enable users to add events to a central calendar and not for each user of BuddyPress.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

So if the central calendar is available to all users, can it not be integrated with your “Pro” and “Tickets” extensions, such that tickets can be issued to a user and then :

1. The events that have been ticketed for a specific user can be listed in the user profile
2. the events that have been created by a user can be listed in the user profile (with a ticked list)

Understanding that a significant amount of data based coding will be needed for this, is this not possible?

Hi,

Yeah it could be possible to do what you are asking, but not without significant customization, which we would not be able to support nor can we provide much more technical details about how everything works beyond the support documents already available.

As for tickets all our plugins use the eCommerce system’s checkout process to create the ticket for an event so you would have to build around that. Once a ticket is created it is stored in a custom post type you could access.

With Community Events if the person is a registered user and creates the event they are the author of the event so you could use a query to get all events they authored.

Cheers
