Event Aggregator

[Rich Carey]

The organization I work with is a church. They are using Microsoft Exchange in the Office and have 3 calendars. The question is, if they have a facilities calendar, service calendar , and staff calendar and the total of the 3 calendar you have at the most 10 events for the day, which plan do we use? Personal?

Next, we are already using Events calendar, plus Event Pro. (under [email protected]) The categories we currently use are meeting/classes, Service, Event, Closed and Phone. If we use the Event Aggregator will it maintain the categories so that our feature events, categorized Event, will still display on the front of our website, using the filter on the event widget. Also would we need the Event Pro?

We currently delete and then import every couple weeks. The reason looking at Event Aggregator.

Thank You,

Rich

Hi Rich,

Thanks so much for stopping by–happy to help you out with your questions here! It sounds like the basic tier for Event Aggregator should work just fine for your needs in this case. As EA import limits are counted based on the number of imports, not on the number of items imported, even multiple daily imports from all three calendars shouldn’t exceed your limit with the 100-imports-per-day tier! 🙂

Your existing categories will be preserved when adding Event Aggregator to an existing site install, so you can assign imported events to existing categories or create new ones as needed. Event Aggregator will add functionality but will not replace the features of Events Calendar PRO; if you’re using features included with PRO such as PRO-exclusive widgets or calendar views, I’d suggest keeping PRO active after setting up Event Aggregator. If you’re not sure what the differences between The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO are, the product page for PRO provides a helpful comparison showing some of the main features.

I hope that helps to answer your questions here! Thanks for your interest, and let us know if there’s anything else we can do to assist!
