SOCIAL & The Events Calendar…??

[JB]

I’m new here; just wondering if this plug in can connect with Social event promotion tools – Facebook events, or in my case (music) things like ArtistData or Bands In Town, etc.
If so… I’m SOLD!

[JB]

More specifically… can I post events to The Events Calendar and outside social event tools at the same time?

Hi JB,

We do have a plugin that allows you to important events from Facebook into the Events Calendar. You can check it out at https://theeventscalendar.com/facebook-events/

At this time it does not allow you to important events from Events Calendar to Facebook but we hope to add that in the future. (Building that architecture is unfortunately far more complex than building the export architecture, so we wanted to go ahead and get the FB -> WP approach out there first and foremost.) But the current version does allow you to post events at the same time, as long as you do it from the Facebook side.

For the other social networks you mentioned, you may need to look into third-party customization to allow integration. If there isn’t something already in WordPress that makes connection with ArtistData or Bands In Town possible, customization would be the way to go.

I hope that answered your question. Let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.

Cheers,
Leah
