Mysql import?

[Karen Riedl]

I do not know how many events we have – somewhere between 20 and 30 thousand I think. – can you hand that? is tWe also have rss feeds that feed off this database. Can I import to your form to use your service?

Hi there! Glad to have you here–thanks so much for taking a look at our plugins! 🙂

While The Events Calendar does not currently have a direct SQL import feature, we do support CSV import of various fields for both the free and PRO versions of the plugin; you may be able to export your database fields to CSV and import them this way! Depending on your server settings, however, it is possible that you may encounter timeout issues with importing such a large number of events. If you should encounter issues with the importer tool, you or your system administrator may need to temporarily adjust your server’s PHP settings to increase the maximum execution time for PHP queries. This should ensure that the server has enough time to process your requests before it hangs!

RSS feeds may also be able to be imported if properly converted to CSV, although this approach might require a bit more effort to execute! If you should choose to go this route, the documentation linked above should provide all the info you need to ensure that your fields are labeled properly for import.

Please know that if you should choose to try any of our premium plugins for your setup, we do offer a great refund policy on all of our paid offerings! You’re absolutely more than welcome to test our products as needed, make use of our dedicated support resources to troubleshoot any issues, and if you find things still aren’t quite working for you, we’d be happy to process a full refund within 30 days of purchase.

I hope that helps to address some of your questions! Please don’t hesitate to follow up if you should have any other concerns–and thanks again!

– question – I can use any ticket reseller program? I mean me as an affiliate.
I see you have ties to EventBrite – and they are really a competitor of mine –

Also I have 50 state pages – I need 50 state pages with this – if I were to use it.

Hi again!

Absolutely! If you’d prefer not to use Eventbrite for ticket sales and management, our Event Tickets Plus plugin supports a variety of ecommerce platforms, including WooCommerce, Shopp, and more. Our Eventbrite Tickets plugin is just one of many options we provide for ticket sales, so you shouldn’t feel pressured to use it for the best experience!

Our events category functionality may be useful to you for creating pages to filter and display events–you can read more about it here.
