Import ical, ics, etc.

[Allison]

Hi there,

1. I’m in charge of creating/updating calendars for a number of websites. Ideally, I would love to have all of these sites use Events Calendar Pro, then automatically export their events onto one big calendar. I’ve looked around and this still doesn’t seem to be a feature. Can you confirm I am correct on this? Currently I’m using a feed syndicator, but want to make sure I’m not missing something.

2. Not all of these websites are WordPress based, so I’m needing to pull in their feeds to the big calendar using their own rss feeds. Some use ical and ics. Having looked through the forums, it looks like an ical importer is in the works. Is this still accurate? ALSO, according to this https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/ics-import/, you had an ics importer in the works some time ago, but didn’t think it would work with the latest version of the calendar. I have the latest version. Will this work?

Thanks!

Hi Allison,

You’re right that the kind of automated syndication and import of events you describe in your first point is not an existing feature (remember, though, you can submit and up-vote features on our UserVoice page).

We are working on an iCal importer, however it is not ready for public consumption just yet – but definitely monitor our blog for further news on that front 🙂
