Link to other Event Calendars

[Melissa Mosher]

Hi There – just purchased. Is there a way to connect to other Event Calendars?

example: MY CALENDAR AGGREGATOR pulls from : http://www.redcapeco.com/calendar/ – who is also customer of The Events Calendar.

Or would they need to produce an export for me to upload to mine?

Thanks!

Hi Melissa.

Thanks for your question.

There is no built-in/streamlined way to sync events between 2 sites running The Events Calendar.

However, you can use Event Aggregator to pull in events from the other site’s iCal export feed.

If the Month View’s or List View’s iCal export isn’t enough events (i.e. not far out enough in the future) for your liking, that site could implement a longer-term iCal export, such as a year.

Here’s an installable .zip file (install it at that site’s Plugins screen) that adds two URLs:

1. example.com/events/?ical=1&tribe_display=recently-published
2. example.com/events/?ical=1&tribe_display=year

The first is useful when folks are trying to use the iCal importer to pull events from one website to another. It will contain any recently published or modified events. Note: It is subject to the postsperpage setting in WP-Admin > Events > Settings.

The second exports this year’s events (from January through December).

Please let me know your thoughts.

Thanks!

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.
