[Rich Benjamin]

Hello: My name is Rich Benjamin, The following is a conversation with Diego P a sales rep of yours. I contacted him before I purchased your events Pro Calendar. How do I produce an ICS feed or How do I Pull an RSS Feed? I ma willing to purchase licence Calendar Pro Licence for each site?

“I really like the look of your calendar, can it be shared on more than one site? I have a winery company who has 5 locations in the area I want to put info on one calendar and share on other sites. Does your calendar support this function?

Hi,
It depends, if you want to show the calendar on all the sites, you would need to install the plugin in each site, then use the ICS feed from one of the site’s calendar to sync the rest of the sites. If you want to have the plugin in only one site, you can use the RSS feed to show the event info in the other sites. In this case the other sites will need an RSS feed reader plugin. Note that you need to purchase a regular license for every site that you would install the calendar plugin.

Regards
Diego P.”

Thank you in advance for your help

Hi there Rich,

Thanks for getting in touch with us and for your interest in our plugins 🙂

Let me start by saying we have no one in the team called Diego, so maybe there’s a plugin confusion here?

What you are looking for is possible. The options are:

1- Have The Events Calendar on the main site and use an RSS feed of the events to show a list of events in the sub-sites which will link to the events on the main site. So basically show a list of links to the events on the main site, via a RSS feed. You’ll probably need a RSS feed reader plugin or code this yourself.

2- Install The Events Calendar in the main site and subsites. Also install iCal Importer in the subsites to create recurring imports from the main site. In this case the content will be shown in each subsite calendar, and not work as a list of links as the solution described in #1.

For none of the above Events Calendar PRO is mandatory, but both will work if Events Calendar PRO is enabled on the main and/or subsites.

Please let me know if this answers your questions,
Best,
Nico

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!
