ParticipantHi Thomas,
We utilize microformats in numerous places to make event data more accessible. For example event meta data like date & time, venue and address are marked up with proper microformats attributes to better identify them. You can see this in action in the single events template by viewing the HTML and seeing where we identify items with the itemtype and itemprop attribuites as outlined by http://schema.org/
Does that answer your question?

ParticipantHi Jonah,
So what I gather is that I don’t need to do anything extra?

ParticipantHi Tom,
No, you don’t need to do anything extra. The microformat attributes are there for you and will work automatically. Of course this doesn’t answer all aspects of SEO and you will want to look into additional methods to achieve specific positioning if this is what you’re looking to do. But that’s a whole other topic and not something we can help you with.

ParticipantHi again,
So I was in Google webmaster tools trying to highlight “events” so Google can find the pattern (Im sure you know what Im talking about) anyway.. I had a terrible time as the events as seen in Google are a horrible mess and I gave up after 30 minutes of trying to label tags correctly. And google gave me a message that my pages we unreadable, or some such thing.My concern is that my events that were posted in Eventbrite are coming across just fine, and my events in Wootickets/Calendar Pro are no-place to be found. I really wanted to get away from eventbrite, thats why I bought the tickets plugin and the Calendar Pro.
What am I doing wrong?

ParticipantHi Thomas,
I’m not quite sure what you are talking about actually. Can you provide some screenshots or a screencast to help describe what the issue is?
Thanks,
Jonah -
