Eventbrite Plugin – Multiple Eventbrite Accounts

[Plattion]

Hi,

Is it possible to connect to multiple Eventbrite accounts, populating multiple calendars, on one website?

Additionally, can events that are created in The Events Calendar and pushed to Eventbrite, be displayed in calendar widget format, rather than in a list? And vice-versa: can events imported from Eventbrite into The Events Calendar also be displayed in the calendar widget format (seen here http://wpshindig.com/event-widgets/)

Appreciate your time,

Plattion

Hey there, Plattion! Thanks for checking out Eventbrite Tickets. 🙂

Good questions. Unfortunately, you can only connect one account at a time. However, once the plugin has been activated and configured, any event from any account can be imported manually using the Import: Eventbrite option in the Events menu.

And, yes, any event that is either created in The Events Calendar or imported into The Events Calendar will definitely be compatible with any of the event widgets. I do want to note that the Mini Calendar widget requires The Events Calendar PRO, which is a separate plugin.

Does this help answer your questions? Do you have any others I can help with? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!

We’ve purchased the eventbrite plug-in and are using the free version of the events calendar. We can’t get it to push events to eventbrite even though we’ve authorized the tokens/license, etc. Must we purchase events calendar pro in order for all of this to work properly?

Thanks Geoff,

If I understand you correctly, importing from separate accounts would mean continually linking and unlinking those accounts to import data from them. Correct?

Is there a workaround? Perhaps copying the plugin several times, giving each copy a different configuration, and installing those copies side-by-side?

Thanks for your time,

Hi Plattion, thanks for following up!

Actually, it’s a little simpler than that: you don’t need multiple accounts to import event from Eventbrite into WordPress. One account will do and will allow you to import events from any Eventbrite account on an individual basis. Here’s a deeper dive into how importing works.

On the other hand, ff you want to push events from WordPress to Eventbrite, that’s where you’ll be limited to a single account. I’m not aware of any workarounds for that, and am not sure that having multiple installations of the plugin would be the solution since it would still be the same underlying code.

bscmanagement: would it be possible for you to open a new support ticket for your question? You do not need PRO for Eventbrite Tickets to work, so it sounds like you have another conflict that will be better addressed in a separate thread. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
