Can we share Events to Social Media via Publicize?

[Carole Langman]

1. There is a Jetpack feature which allows posts to be publicized to Social Media. Is there a way to add this feature to Events, to save us having to manually post to Social Media?

2. Our customers who book multiple dog training events requested that these booked events show in their Account. Is there a way to do that?

Many thanks,

Carole

Hi Carole. Sure thing.

Please try this code snippet:

Let me know how it goes for you.

Thank you Cliff. Much appreciated.

Just double-checking – do I add this code to functions.php in wp includes, or somewhere else?

[Cliff]

Welcome to WordPress customizing!

Best practice for adding custom code (like to implement a PHP snippet to modify The Events Calendar) is to create a functionality plugin, unless it’s something specific to your theme, in which case best practice is to make sure you’re using a child theme, then add the customization to your child theme’s functions.php file.

I hope this information helps!

Thanks so much for your help, Cliff. I will try that.

You’re welcome, Carole.

Please let me know if it works well for you.

[Carole Langman]

Yes, it worked. 🙂 Thanks again.
