Importing from other Events Calendar plugin sites

[Donald]

We are looking to partner with a few sites for importing their events and they all already use Events Calendar. How do you suggest setting up an automated schedule of events importing? I’m assuming ICS and we already have the importer addon, but do we need to purchase more and is this even possible?

Good evening Donald and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

The first thing to do would be to read the following: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/exporting-events/

If you right-click on the “Export events” button you should be able to get an .ics link.
In turn, you can simply use that link in our Event Aggregator importer.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Can this be brought into the scheduler though if the ICS file has to be manually generated?

[Geoff B.]

Good evening Donald,

Thank you for writing back.

Yes, this can be brought in the scheduler.
The URL will look something like http://yoursite.com/events/?ical=1&tribe_display=list

This format might vary depending which view you take the link from.

But, in any case, it will be considered as a normal iCal link.

Give it a try.

Best regards,

Geoff B.

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!
