Multiple feeds

[Louie]

will your bundle allow me to update one calendar that can feed to three of my websites, so I do not have to update all three?

Hi there!

Thanks for getting in touch! If you’re looking to sync events from one calendar across three separate sites without much manual intervention, it sounds like iCal Importer might be just the product you’re looking for–a Business license for iCal Importer will allow you to activate on up to three sites, and you can set each site up for recurring imports from a Google Calendar or other iCal URL. Once everything’s set up across your network of sites, all you’ll need to make changes to is the iCal calendar, and the rest will take care of itself!

Does that help to answer your question? Let me know if you should have any others or if I can clarify anything! 🙂 Thanks again!

What if the sites are two independent sites?
Here is the “original” site with Calendar Pro bundle….

EGuide’s BIG Calendar of Events

And I need that content (photos, category icons, links, etc…) to feed to a different site, http://www.visittyler.com/calendar/
who we partner with for the calendar content.
When we (site one/EGuide) add events, I need site 2 (VisitTyler) to jive together.
We can do that manually if needed. Automatically would be better but I’ll settle to manually to do it.

Hi there!

Thanks for getting in touch! The easiest way to ensure that your calendar events are totally identical would be to export your events from one calendar via WordPress at regular intervals and import them manually into the other. This method would just use WordPress’s own built-in import and export tools, so it requires no additional plugins and has very predictable results, if you don’t mind the manual input method!

If you’d like to explore a potential setup that’s a bit more automated, you might consider pairing our iCal Importer add-on (on both sites) with a master Google Calendar that would be updated with the events for both calendars. In this scenario, it’d simply be a matter of updating the Google Calendar as needed and setting recurring imports for that calendar on both of your sites.

I hope that helps to give you some ideas! 🙂 Let me know if there’s anything else I can do to assist!

Hi again! It’s been a while since our last exchange here, and it looks like you’ve gone ahead and marked a correct answer for the thread–I hope that means you are all set now! I’m going to go ahead and close this thread out, but please don’t hesitate to follow up with a new thread if there’s anything else we can do to assist! 🙂 Thank you!
