How to subscribe to Events to get notified by email when new event is posted?

Like Feedburner will notifiy my subscribers by email when I publish a new post on the Blog. Is there a way to do the same for the new events I publish on The Events Calendar?

Hi Rishi,

Thanks for getting in touch!

The Events Calendar does include an RSS feed that users can subscribe to in any RSS reader app. That said, I’m afraid that our plugins do not include email notifications right out of the box.

One idea you might consider is using the Mail Poet plugin. It allows you to send automated email newsletters based on published posts and I believe works with custom post types, like Events.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!

Yes. This solved my problem. Thanks a ton for your help.

However, I was unable to get the MailPoet plugin to work with my hosting service. Have sent them an email to help with that.

Thanks for all your help.

Hey Rishi and thanks for following up!

Glad to hear my last reply helped answer your question and I hope that MailPoet winds up being a nice solution as well once it is fully integrated with your site.

I’ll go ahead and close this thread but let us know if any other questions come up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
