How do users subscribe to calendar?

[vandenberg25]

Where is the link to get the feed for users to subscribe to our calendar and have it automatically update there Google or iCal Calendars?

The EXPORT function is only a 1 time function. Where is the link to create a subscription to our calendar that flows down to users automatically?

I can’t get any articles to come up in the knowledge base about this?

Please advise.

Hi Rebecca,

Unfortunately, this is not a feature of the Events Calendar plugins. You can pull events into WordPress from something like Google Calendar on a scheduled basis. But users would need to subscribe to that Google Calendar directly in order to have it update for them automatically.

Does that make sense?

Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,
Sky

This is not a feature of the Events Calendar Pro? The paid version? I
thought this was a standard feature on most paid calendar plugins with
Wordpress?

Are you aware of any workarounds? What about through the RSS feed? I came
upon this article yesterday, but I could not get it to work.

Can you confirm if this method works are not?

Rebecca,

RSS is a standard feature of WordPress, and not specific to the Events plugin. If your users are using an RSS feed reader, they can certainly subscribe to your site and events that are posted there. This does not directly work with calendar services like Google Calendar however. There are services out there that do this sort of thing though. You can Google “RSS to Google Calendar” to search the various integrations.

You can read more about using RSS with the Events Calendar here.

Let me know if that helps.

Thanks,
Sky

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.
