If i buy event calendar pr and facebook events

[mike]

Hi
Im keen to upgrade our event engine and your The Events Calendar Pro with the facebook events plugin look like it what we need.

So if i purchase those two can people login in and list their own events?

Also are we able to import our current (live) event listings into your event engine?

Hey Mike,

Hope you’re doing well and having a great Friday so far. 🙂

So if i purchase those two can people login in and list their own events?

I’m afraid not. The ability to login and submit events is available, however, in our Community Events add-on. I would suggest checking that out because that sounds like a fit for what you need as far as letting people submit their own events to the calendar.

I do want to note that Community Events and Facebook Events are two separate plugins and ones that do not integrate with one another. In other words, someone submitting an event through Community Events would not be able to import events automatically from Facebook.

Also are we able to import our current (live) event listings into your event engine?

The Events Calendar does include a CSV importer that will allow you to upload a CSV file of events data into the calendar and import it as events into WordPress.

Check out these posts to see what that process looks like and whether your existing event list will be compatible.

Also, if your existing events list has a hosted .ics file, then you might want to check out our iCal Importer add-on. It will allow you to import events with a URL or hosted .ics file and automatically schedule events to import into WordPress on a recurring basis.

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

Cheers,
Geoff
