Sorry about that typo. Should be “Will Events Aggregator do what I need it to do?”

[media325]

My thought and sentiments exactly. Currently importing events from almost 400 Facebook pages.

The new Event Aggregator looks interesting and would be a tool I’d be interested in specifically because it can import multiple events from FB groups and individuals. That said it doesn’t include all of the features that Facebook importer does, specifically importing events from multiple FB pages at once.

I’ve tried re-saving permalinks as well as recreating the recurring events. No luck. Thanks

[media325]

Thanks. I haven’t done much if anything using hooks. I will give it a shot.

I’ve changed the WP timezone setting to UTC-4. On the import screen the dates are still off but the correct dates are actually imported. That works for me now. Thanks

I’ve found that many venues (and organizers) won’t be imported if their FB page setting are age restricted. To test go to the FB page you’re having a problem with while logged into FB. Copy the url and try to go to the same page while you are logged out of FB. I typically just use a second browser because I’m to lazy to keep logging in/out.

If while logged out you get a “Sorry, this page isn’t available” message it means there are age restrictions on that page.

Just sent posted the System Info Privately. All but 3 Modern Tribe Plugins are deactivated , TwentyThirteen is the theme. Same issue

The organizer field DOES WORK for many users – when we tested this ourselves, even for two out of three developers the organizer field worked, but for me and one other developer we encountered issues like yours.

A program doesn’t selectively work. It works or doesn’t work based on criteria. Environment from the server configuration to the browser and everything in-between, data input, application code as well as apis are all part of that criteria.

This bug does not reliably show up. Some times, for some users, it does, but most of the time, for most users, it does not.

By definition that is what makes it a bug.

Literally every other feature of the plugin works.

So I understand this I’ll use an analogy.

You George, just bought a new car because you’ll be traveling for business. You’ll be spending hours on the road and driving to locations you’re not familiar with.

The navigation and entertainment system stop working. The dealer doesn’t know when it will be fixed. “It could be the third party software that our software integrates with, but it does work for some people” and “Literally every other feature of the car functions”

You’re good with that? And you’ll happily wait for them to contact you and let you know when they’ll be able to fix it?

I have been patient and pleasant. I don’t appreciate being spoken to condescendingly.

Since you’ve asked. Currently I have about 150 organizers, more are added as they become available, that’s part of the business model.

When importing 20-30 events per day it does take quite a bit of time to associate organizers with events. It’s not simply editing each of those events it’s also determining which organizer is involved with the event as it’s not always clearly indicated in event title or description.

[media325]

Two weeks to correct a bug in a plugin that effectively renders the plugin useless is entirely too long.

[media325]

Any idea on an update? I have about 150 organizers so I haven’t updated events in almost a week. Which is defeating the purpose of an events calendar. Thanks

Thank you. Can you expand upon

intentionally overrides has_archive in order to allow the selection of a specific template in other views.

I don’t want to interfere with core features or effect the Modern Tribe Plugins. Thanks

[media325]

Thank you.

[media325]

Brian. Thanks that is a great tool. Saving the Permalinks and using the plugin pointed me to a typo that I had in the code.

Here is the updated code if anyone finds it usefull:

    
  //re-register tribe_organizer to allow for archive pages
function update_tribe_organizer_post_type() {
	register_post_type('tribe_organizer',
		array(
			'labels' => array (
			),
			'public' => true,
			'has_archive' => true,
			'rewrite' => array(
				'slug' => 'organizers',
				'with_front' => false,
			),
			'supports' => array(
				'title',
			)
		)
	);
}
add_action( 'init', 'update_tribe_organizer_post_type');
    
  //re-register tribe_venue to allow for archive pages
function update_tribe_venue_post_type() {
	register_post_type('tribe_venue',
		array(
			'labels' => array (
			),
			'public' => true,
			'has_archive' => true,
			'rewrite' => array(
				'slug' => 'venues',
				'with_front' => false,
			),
			'supports' => array(
				'title',
			)
		)
	);
}
add_action( 'init', 'update_tribe_venue_post_type');
