Facebook & Eventbrite events

[Jay]

I am finalizing my choose for event plugin for our city guide ASAP. Something that we are looking to add on our revised site is the ability to pull public events by region (ex: all public events in chicago) from both Facebook and eventbrite. This is a feature that drew me to your products 1) facebook-events and 2) wordpress-eventbrite-tickets, but first I want to confirm that it in deed would do what I just described. Ex: http://www.hangtime.com/Brooklyn-NY-events or wherevents.com

Hi,

Thanks for the interest in our plugins.

So you are trying to pull all events from an area?

Our Facebook Importer enables you to import single public events and you can set it up automatically from pages or organizations.

The Facebook API does not support finding events in a region and importing them so it would not be possible to add that as a feature.

The Eventbrite plugin is similar, but that only enables you to manually import single events by their id at a time. There is no regionally import for that plugin either nor from their API.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks
