Can I setup each custom URL import to assign events into a separate category?

[Ella]

Hello,

My client has a multisite install at https://smallbizla.org/

We then have 7 sub sites in the network. Currently they all login to the main website and add their events into the lead calendar, and assign them to a specific organizer like this one for example: https://smallbizla.org/events/?tribe_organizers%5B%5D=5854

Then on the sub site calendar page we simply show an iframe of the main calendar page, filtered by that specific organizer: https://cocsbdc.org/event-calendar/

As you imagine this is both less than ideal, cumbersome and also, when you click on an event on a subsite it opens the single event by going to the lead center. People can get confused as to why they’ve been transferred to a different website.

So I want to know if this would work:

1. each subsite runs its own events calendar

2. lead center calendar imports events automatically via scheduled imports twice a day from these custom URL’s

3. each custom URL import can be assigned to a specific organizer defined in the main calendar. So I don’t want to assign to specific category but to specific organizer.

4. when someone clicks on the main calendar on an event imported from a subsite, he’s taken to that subsite as opposed to showing the event on the main website.

Thank you!
