What about Photo copyright when importing events from facebook to your website?

[Elza van Swieten]

We received a copyright complaint from a photographer after importing an event from Facebook.

How does this work? It’s impossible to figure out which photo can and which photo can’t be downloaded when using the aggregator.

Hi Elza,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

I completely understand your concern.  Unfortunately, Aggregator does not block images where copyright is an issue.  You can possibly add a custom field to the photo that credits the photographer.  Or you could delete the image once it has been imported, so that you will not run into a copyright issue.

Feel free to vote on this idea in our Feature Ideas, as we take custom feedback into consideration when implementing new features:

Please let me know if you have any other questions on this topic!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
