multiple facebook page/group import into one site

[Joe]

Hi,

am currently using free version of events calendar and am generally pleased. however, I would like to know more about the event aggregator plug-in and in particular its facebook capabilities.

My goal is to have more than one facebook page/group feed their page/group-specific events into my single-site. Is the facebook aggregator plug-in capable of doing this? Or, does the event aggregator feed in from only a single facebook source?

Thanks!
Joe

Hi Joe,

Great question! Event Aggregator will indeed allow you to set up and import from as many Facebook sources as you would like.

This article does a good job explaining the overall process for importing events from other sources using Event Aggregator:

https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/import-from-feed-or-url/

Those steps could be followed as many times as you’d like when setting up imports from multiple Facebook feeds.

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

Cheers!
Geoff

Hi Geoff,

Based on your reply, sounds like the event aggregator will suit our needs to import from facebook. Am interested in purchasing the event aggregator plug-in. Believe, the personal option is needed for our word press website that is already implementing the free event calendar plug-in.

Is the personal option appropriate?

If you are going to be importing to just one site then the personal license should be a great fit for you!

ok. is there an upgrade option is personal is not enough (think I’ll be fine for now), but just wondering?

Could you clarify: “Fill your site with events and get 1 year of excellent support and access to the Event Aggregator service for up to 10 sites.”

What does it mean up to ten sites:
1. What options?
2. Am thinking this means populate up to ten of one’s own sites, since I don’t think on any of the package options there is a limit to the number of feeds a site can subscribe to?

Yes – you can upgrade at any time 🙂

What does it mean up to ten sites

Unlike our other products (which are mostly plugins), you could use The Events Calendar on ten separate sites and use the same Event Aggregator license in each case.

I don’t think on any of the package options there is a limit to the number of feeds a site can subscribe to?

Exactly – you could, if you wished, subscribe to 10,000 different Facebook pages, iCal feeds, etc. However, you would be limited to a total of 100 imports per day (with our personal license).

Does that help/clarify things? Essentially, you can use the same license on 10 different sites (it doesn’t sound like you need this, but the option is there) and for as many feeds as you like – but you are capped at a net total of 100 imports per day.
