Facebook Privacy Policy

[Danielle]

I currenly use an event aggregator that works with The Events Calendar Pro, for importing events to the website from Facebook. This plugin has currently stopped working because if Facebook’s privacy policy change that happened on the 4th of this month. Is your event Aggregator having the same issues with the privacy policy? We are thinking of switching.

Thanks,
Danielle

Hi Danielle,

Thank you for your interest in our plugin!

Indeed, the sudden change in Facebook’s Privacy Policy caused lots of problems for the different external services connected to their Events API.

Our Event Aggregator was impacted, and our developers are working on it to solve the issues. Two days ago, Facebook even rolled out additional restrictions which will prevent us from facilitating imports from regular Facebook pages, except for any events where you have indicated interest in the event.

We will be posting updates on this page.

Thank you,
Jeremy

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!
