I tried it with this Organization : https://www.facebook.com/pg/cyac2001
Using the legacy plugin it works fine.
Just a note: the checkbox to “share your system info” is actually in “Events → Help” and not in “Events → Settings → Licenses” as mentioned here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/sharing-sys-info/
I have checked the box in my ‘Help’ settings and a copy of those settings will be in a private message to follow.

They post new events daily and we work with them a lot. Using the EA all new events come in with a blank organizer field but using the legacy import all fields are populated correctly.
I’ve chosen to only have a few Facebook Pages import for now, seeing the problems others are facing.
I’m experiencing the same problem as a few others where my imports are wiping out my “Organizer” field. So for now, I’ll hold off on any major importing. We do 200+ imports each day as well.
I know the Events Calendar staff will get these resolved. Until then, back to the Legacy System: at least we can stay in operation until our issues are resolved.
Thanks Leah,
Sorry I was a bit crass in my comment. I was pretty excited about the new aggregation system then when I started reading about it I got a little let-down.
I read a few other posts and comments from other topics and understand a few things better now.
Sorry again, and our site and community website wouldn’t be anywhere near usable if it weren’t for the Event Calendar plugin system.

I agree with André, I manage two sites that are importing 2oo+ events each and I was under the assumption this new import tool was going to relieve me from manually importing 20 pages at a time to get all my updates in…EVERY DAY!
I was very excited when hearing the talks and reports about the aggregator and now.. what a let down. I’ll go back to using the legacy system.
I done did it! Thanks for offering to let us become part of the beta test and look forward to getting involved.
Here’s the link to the topic found in your ‘free’ forums’:
I’m using the custom field per the instructions at this post: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/additional-fields-for-venues-and-organizers/
After looking a little deeper into some other’s forum posts, I believe I found that MailPoet may do what we need it to do. I will be working on it this week and confirm if that provided the solution I was looking for.
