Facebook Events and adding Manual Entry

[Zach Kozdron]

Hello. I have a couple questions.

Can the user also manually add events when using the facebook events version of the plugin to essentially co-mingle facebook events and events added via wordpress?

And number two — and I realize I will need to do some research on facebook policy — but do you have anything you can share from experience about the facebook determining of “adult” events? The use would be for a restaurant/bar/music venue to provide updates of primarily live music shows.

Hi,

Thanks for the interest in our plugins. I can answer your questions.

Can the user also manually add events when using the facebook events version of the plugin to essentially co-mingle facebook events and events added via wordpress?

Yes the Facebook Event Add On requires the core version of the Events Calendar found for free on WordPress.org: https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar/ so you can manually add events through that as well as import Events from Facebook to display.

And number two — and I realize I will need to do some research on facebook policy — but do you have anything you can share from experience about the facebook determining of “adult” events? The use would be for a restaurant/bar/music venue to provide updates of primarily live music shows.

We are able to import events without restrictions on them. Any age, country, or any type of restriction will prevent the importer from working. That restriction is set in the Facebook Page settings and can only be changed by the owner. So usually if you cannot see the page without signing into Facebook we are not going to be able to import it.

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks
