Custom Event Feed

[Glenn Abel]

Hi,

Is there any plans to include the ability to easily build a custom event feed…rss, json etc.

I’m being asked to create a feed that our intranet can ingest to display our events there as well.

Thoughts?

Hey Glenn,

Thanks for reaching out. We have RSS feeds by default—if your site’s calendar is example.com/events, then example.com/events/feed is an RSS feed.

“Custom” feeds are not supported at this time. And while there is no plan to enable custom feeds at this time, yes, when the JSON REST API finally arrives in WordPress Core, we will be supporting a JSON feed of events too.

I do not know when that will be because the inclusion date of the REST API in Core is still not defined yet. But when WordPress Core supports it, we will too. 🙂

Cheers,
George

Thanks George.

I appreciate the quick response and look forward to this functionality being available.

Best,
Glenn

We do too! It’ll be great to have JSON REST API support in WordPress Core for features just like this. 🙂

Cheers!
George

Just posting a quick update that we’ve just launched The Events Calendar – Full REST Support. You can read the release notes at https://theeventscalendar.com/release-events-calendar-full-rest-support/.

We also published a helpful guide: Introduction to The Events Calendar REST API https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/introduction-events-calendar-rest-api/ .

We’re excited to provide this functionality for you.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂
