Switching Products

[webplacement]

Hey there! I received a response because I accidentally bought both Events Calendar Pro as well as Community Events Calendar. What I need is for users to be able to post their own events on the front end, which looks like I need EventBrite. Can I get a credit for that since it seems I don’t need events calendar pro? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi webplacement!

What I need is for users to be able to post their own events on the front end, which looks like I need EventBrite.

Sounds like Community Events should meet your needs: our Eventbrite add on allows events to be submitted to (and imported from) the Eventbrite platform, which is slightly different from simply creating events to be displayed on the front-end.

Does that clarify things at all?

It does, but I have bought 2 other products thinking that they had those options, I am wondering if I can replace one of my purchased like the events calendar pro for EventsBrite, so users can submit their own events from the front end.

Well, that’s what the Community Events plugin does. Once activated, your users should be able to visit a form on the front end of your site and submit events. Normally that form is found at:

www.your-website.com/events/community/add

That isn’t a capability that Eventbrite Tickets will bring to the table – I just want to be certain we’re understanding each other there.

If you’re absolutely sure you want to make a change what I would suggest is emailing us with a copy of your receipt for one of the plugins, reference this thread and request a refund – you can then purchase Eventbrite Tickets as a replacement (so far as I know our system will not simply allow us to transfer your license from one product to another).

Thanks!

That url brings a login necessity which I dontn want to have, and more importantly, there is a mouse-over add when you mouseover the “login” link. Can you help me with these glitches? Thanks.

I’d be happy to 🙂

So if you take a look here you can see that there is an option to allow anonymous submissions, negating the need for users to login.

more importantly, there is a mouse-over add when you mouseover the “login” link.

Not quite sure what you are referring to here – can you explain further and/or link to the page where you are seeing this?

Thank you for getting back to me. the calendar is located here
http://livekauai.com/calendar/events/
I can not seem to figure out how anyone can just go to the calendar site and add an event. I watched the videos for help, but I could not figure it out. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi webplacement, so you’d need to add a link somewhere to your Add Events page, which can be found at this URL:

http://livekauai.com/calendar/events/community/add

You might do this by placing a link in your menu (login and navigate to Appearance > Menus) or by adding a bit of HTML (possibly using our Before HTML option found at Events > Settings > Template > Add HTML before calendar).

Does that help here?

[webplacement]

Yes! Thank you so much!
