Hi
Event Aggregator can integrate with Community Events?

Hi Andrei,

Thanks for reaching out here and for your interest in our products!

With Event Aggregator, you can import events from a variety of sources right into your Events Calendar.

In what way were you looking to integrate Event Aggregator with Community Events?  Both plugins can add events to your calendar, though Community Events is most often done through other users on the front end, while Event Aggregator is imports events from other sources through the back end of the site.

Please let me know if you need any further clarity on this issue!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

Until now, we have 24 museums that want to post their events themselves through Community Events.
But they also post your facebook events on their own account
If they had access to Community Events when importing facebook, they could avoid duplication of work.
We could do this automatically through Event Aggregator but I think we have some problems
– Event Aggregator import event from facebook or posts? Because not everyone uses facebook events and anyway many postings are trifles that have nothing to look for on our site. As a result, human supervision is needed. It is preferable to make people from museums not us for dozens of museums
– We want to bring the people to the site and later to bring pictures and vernissage or virtual tours with the exhibition

in the front end from Community Events can Event Aggregator also appear?
Event Aggregator only imports facebook events or and posts?

Hi Andrei,

Unfortunately, users cannot post events using a Facebook URL through Community Events.  Either an administrator can import Facebook events via a URL through the backend with Event Aggregator, or users can use the front end to post events through Community Events.  You can choose to give users permission to the back end of your site, and that would be a way for users to add imports via Facebook.

Event Aggregator can also import events from other sources besides Facebook, if that is something that you are interested in as well.  Event Aggregator only supports imports of events from the back end however.

With Community Events, you can have all events submitted as Drafts so that they will not be published right away and administrators can review them before being published.  This will prevent duplicates.

Please let me know if you have any other questions about how this works!

 

Thanks,

Jaime

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!
