Community Events Question

[David Kiessling]

One of our clients, Lake Wales Chamber of Commerce would like to add the ability let community submit events for approval. Is this possible with our current product/version? If not, what would we need to do to add this functionality for our client. Looks like we need to purchase the Community Events module for $89. Anything else?

Below is their install details. Thanks!

Hi David!

Yes, Community Events will allow you to add the functionality for visitors submitting events to your calendar and to moderate those submissions.

I do want to note that you will need to update both The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO in order to make it happen. I see both are running version 3.10 at the moment and the latest versions are 4.2.7 and 4.2.6, respectively. The jump between 3.10 and 4.0 is pretty significant and introduces breaking changes, so I would definitely advise testing everything in a safe development environment in advance to make sure everything is in working order.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers!
Geoff

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
The Events Calendar Support Team
