Pre Sales Ical question

[Tricky]

I have two websites and I need to mirror the events and calendar (including sidebar widgets etc) created on one site on the other site

This should happen automatically and ideally within an hour or so

Can I do this with your Pro plugin and do I need two licences?

Many thanks

Hi, Tricky.

You could have Site A’s events replicated to Site B by using our Event Aggregator product.

However, duplicating your site’s layout, sidebars, and other content would be out of the scope of our plugin, and I don’t know of another plugin or service that would be able to do this for you.

If you really need this functionality, the best way to accomplish this might be a straight copying of a site via your web host. For such functionality, you’ll need a host that has WordPress-specific features.

From my own personal experience, I think https://lightningbase.com/ could provide this functionality to you, but I’m unsure if it could be scheduled (e.g. copy Example-A.com to Example-B.com every 12 hours). Other larger-name hosts like Pantheon, WP Engine, Flywheel, and SiteGround should all have the ability to copy your production site (Example-A.com) to a staging/testing site (staging.Example-A.com), but I don’t think they’d be able to copy from one domain to another like LightningBase.com can.

(Note that all hosts are third-party and are not guaranteed or supported by us.)

If you do have Site A copied to Site B regularly, you’d want to always make changes at Site A and therefore you wouldn’t need a second license key for Site B.

If you decide you only want to copy events from Site A to Site B, please reference https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/creating-hub-site-event-aggregator/

Last but not least, we have a pretty great Refund Policy so you can buy one or many of our add-ons and thoroughly test them.

I hope this info helps. Let me know if you have any follow-up questions.
