Does event aggregator also sync with Google Calendar?

[Eivind]

Hi,

So I understand that I can pull in events from multiple different sources into WordPress, but can those wordpress events then be synced back to a google calendar? Making the WordPress site and Google constantly synced with each other.

I could not tell from the sales page.

Thanks for your help

Hi Eivind

Due to the constraints of iCal, the synchronizing is only 1 way at this time. When you make a change in the Google Calendar source that imports to Event Aggregator, it will be reflected on your site if your settings allow (Events » Settings » Imports » Event Update Authority).

However, you can import the calendar to Google. From the main Events Calendar page, look in the bottom right corner for +Export Events. You can see this button on our demo site: http://wpshindig.com/events/. That .ics file can be imported to many calendar types, and will remain consistent with events published on your site.

It is not truly synching the way you might envision it, but it is a working solution.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Thanks
Courtney 🙂
