Event Aggregator

[Melinda M.]

I would like to just bring one event at a time vs. everything. Will this plug-in allow me to just use their link to populate my calendar?

Hi Melinda

Event Aggregator does allow for single event imports using the “Other URL” option. However, this is limited at this time to only include other websites running WordPress with The Events Calendar v4.5 or higher. We hope to expand that import functionality in the future, but I don’t have any dates in the near future to offer. Do you know what the website you are importing from is using?

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

It is not a particular website. I post events that would be great for our community to know from school plays, to plant sales to golf tournaments. I was just trying to find an easy way so I did not have to type each event in the calendar.

Hey Melinda

Event Aggregator https://theeventscalendar.com/product/event-aggregator/ can also import from Google Calendar, iCal, Facebook, Meetup, and CSV file uploads. Would any of these be in use?

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

[Melinda M.]

Yes…all we be in used but I want to be able to pick which events I want on my calendar.

Hey Melinda

You can manually add single events from any of these sources vs batch scheduling say from a Facebook page. That would still save you from re-entering the data.

Does that make sense?

Thanks

Yes! AWESOME! Just to clarify…we need to purchase that product…correct?

[Courtney]

Yes Melinda

The plugin code for Event Aggregator resides in The Events Calendar, and then you just head to Events » Settings » Licenses to add your license key for it after purchase.

Thanks

One more question. If the events are not public or on a private group via meetup or facebook…can I still add it if I am a member?

Hi Melinda!

I’m afraid it is not possible, Event Aggregator can only import public events, which would require the group to be public.

One of our users reported that he was able to import the name of the event with the date and time but no details from a private meetup group: I didn’t test it from here, but it might work for you as well. As George already mentioned in that thread, to be able to import events from private meetup groups (with title, date and details), it would be necessary to modify the plugin core files and change the way how it contacts the Meetup API.

Let me know if you have any other questions in the meantime and I’ll be happy to assist!

Regards,

Patricia

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!
