Using Facebook & Google simultaneously

[Joshua Daley]

Okay, so my client wants to use Facebook whenever they have image content & rely on Google the remainder of the time. I think that means they would delete Google events manually whenever they shared a duplicate via Facebook.

Any reason this wouldn’t work well?

Thanks!

Hi, Joshua.

If you’re asking about imports from Event Aggregator, there wouldn’t be any way for us to determine if something is a duplicate.

However, you could add some custom coding to do so.

I wouldn’t be able to provide you the code to accomplish this, per our Scope of Support / Terms, but you could look into using one or more of these hooks:

• Actions:
  • tribe_aggregator_before_insert_posts
  • tribe_aggregator_after_insert_posts
• Filters:
  • tribe_aggregator_before_save_event
  • tribe_aggregator_before_update_event
  • tribe_aggregator_before_insert_event
  • tribe_aggregator_event_image
  • tribe_aggregator_meta_source

FYI: Event Aggregator’s code lives in this directory: https://github.com/moderntribe/the-events-calendar/tree/4.6.5/src/Tribe/Aggregator

If you need some coding help, you may want to ask your developer or reference our documentation and list of known customizers.

Please let me know how this customization goes for you.
