Publish Events to FB Group and/or Page & ticketing (paid and free)

[Valerie]

I’m working with a client that is a local club. The two main functions of their site is to manage memberships (for this we use PaidMembershipsPro) and event management.

We have one event per month which is free for members, guests pay $20 to attend (we have a mix of those who pay in advance and those who pay at the door). We also have 2 large social events that are paid for members and guests (different prices), but free for club board members. We use authorize.net for payments.

Because we have more people hang out on our Facebook page we need our events posted there as well as on the site. For the past several years I have been creating the events on the site, then on Facebook… and also on Meetup!

I’m using a competing plugin right now.

I’d like some feedback on how I could use your product to streamline the process. I see the aggregator, but I’m thinking that since I need ticketing options that won’t work for me.

Any way to push events OUT to facebook? and/or meetup ?

Hi Valerie,

Thank you for posting to our Pre-Sales Questions channel. Using Event Tickets and Event Tickets Plus, you could achieve the same ticketing setup you currently have going on other than the authorize.net payment gateway.

Event Aggregator imports events from Meetup and Facebook, but does not post to either of those sites at this time. We have a feature report logged aimed to publish events from WordPress to Facebook, but I can’t guarantee that it will actually be developed nor give an estimated date on when that would be available if it were to be completed. I added this forum thread to the report which helps increase the likeliness of it coming to fruition. I also recommend visiting our UserVoice Feature Ideas and submitting it as a request.

Please let me know if I’ve helped answer your questions and have a great afternoon!

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. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
