Import Facebook events with map and Google map link

[Ken]

Hi,

We are importing dance events with Google maps switched on in the general settings and Facebook import settings. Unfortunately the events do not have the ‘Google Maps Link’ selected by default. Is there a way to have this option set as default in the code rather than have to visit each auto import to set this up.

Kind Regards

Ken

Hey Ken,

Thank you for reaching out. While there isn’t a default setting at this time to enable the ‘Google Maps Link’ option for events imported via the Facebook Events plugin, you could do a simple SQL query. As always, back up before doing any queries!

UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = '1' WHERE meta_key LIKE '%_EventShowMapLink%' AND meta_value=''

Best of luck and we always welcome suggestions via our UserVoice Feature Ideas page. Thanks again and enjoy the rest of your day. Cheers!
