MemberGood question! Event Tickets Plus works alongside our free Event Tickets plugin for its basic functionality, so you’ll need to install Event Tickets first in order to ensure proper operation. Tickets can then be associated with any post type in WordPress, including events created with The Events Calendar or Events Calendar PRO.
Does that help to answer your question? Let me know if I can clarify anything further for you! 🙂 Thanks again!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for stopping by and checking out our plugins! Our plugins are all compatible with WordPress multisite installs regardless of which license you purchase, so you don’t need to purchase a multisite license if you only intend to activate it on a single subsite. Multisite licenses are typically recommended for users who are working with multisite installs in excess of 10 subsites or users who require network-wide settings administration or automatic updates. You can read more about our multisite product licenses on our Knowledgebase here!
I hope that helps! Let me know if you should have any other questions! 🙂

MemberHi there!
Thanks for getting in touch! Just to clarify, are you using a custom post type of events outside of The Events Calendar’s tribe_events post type? You can assign tickets to any existing post type in WordPress in the Settings pane–our Knowledgebase article here has more info on how to set this up!
Does that help to answer your question? Let me know if there’s anything else I can assist with!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for getting in touch! While we don’t have any specific built-in integrations for Zoom or Zapier, we do offer a variety of event import options across our various plugins. One option worth considering might be to push Zoom meetings to a Google Calendar with Zapier using these instructions, then set recurring imports for that Google Calendar using iCal Importer. Perhaps this solution might meet your needs? 🙂
I hope that helps! Let me know if you should have any other questions!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for stopping by and checking out our plugins! 🙂 Absolutely–Event Tickets Plus easily supports multiple ticket types per event right out of the box, as well as customizable form fields for gathering attendee information, and our plugin templates are totally customizable if you’d like to dig deeper with a unique setup for your site. I’d be happy to answer any more specific questions you might have about any of these!
I hope that helps! Let me know if you should have any other questions or if there’s anything else we can do to assist!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for getting in touch! I’m so sorry for the confusion here–you’re correct in observing that our iCal Importer plugin only supports importing of events from Google Calendar or other ICS-based platforms, and we don’t have any functionality to handle automated two-way syncing at this time. If your project requires two-way syncing of events between a third-party platform and your WordPress site, you might consider taking a look at Eventbrite Tickets, which supports syncing events through Eventbrite’s API.
We’d also welcome any suggestions you might have for future releases over on our feature suggestions forum, if you’d like to see this functionality included in iCal Importer someday. If the lack of this feature at present means that iCal Importer won’t be a good fit, let us know and we’ll be happy to refund your original purchase.
Thanks again, and let me know if you should have any other questions!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for getting in touch! If you’re looking to sync events from one calendar across three separate sites without much manual intervention, it sounds like iCal Importer might be just the product you’re looking for–a Business license for iCal Importer will allow you to activate on up to three sites, and you can set each site up for recurring imports from a Google Calendar or other iCal URL. Once everything’s set up across your network of sites, all you’ll need to make changes to is the iCal calendar, and the rest will take care of itself!
Does that help to answer your question? Let me know if you should have any others or if I can clarify anything! 🙂 Thanks again!

MemberHi there!
Thanks for getting in touch, and sorry to hear you’re having some trouble here! I’m afraid that we’re not able to assist with technical support issues here in our pre-sales forum–would you mind heading over to our WordPress.org forum and making a post there with some more details on what you’re experiencing? (A link to an affected page would be a huge help, if possible!) We’ll take a look just as soon as we can and let you know what’s up.
Thank you!

MemberHi there! Thanks so much for checking us out–lots of questions here, so let’s go ahead and dig on in! 🙂
- You can set up a calendar to allow user-generated events with the addition of our Community Events plugin, which lets you open event submissions to non-admin or even anonymous users (according to your settings). Events, like other WordPress posts, default to “Public” (under Visibility in the Publish pane), but they can be set to “Private” to have them only display to other logged-in users.
- You can absolutely open up your event submissions to as wide a public audience as you’d like–this would be covered under the “Allow anonymous submissions” setting mentioned previously. Users creating events will have access to the full suite of options for specifying tags, categories, and so on, so you shouldn’t need to handle these manually! Our full list of settings for Community Events can be found on our Knowledgebase here; you’ll also find a setting there for “Default status for submitted events”, which will let you designate user-submitted events as drafts or another status so they may be approved before going live.
- Facebook Events would be the plugin you’re looking for to bring events in from one or more Facebook pages–as long as you’ve set each page up properly to grant API access permissions, you can pull from pretty much as many sources as you’d like!
I hope that helps to get you started! Let me know if you should have any other questions–and thanks again!

MemberOf course! We’re happy to consider cases such as yours for licenses other than Events Calendar PRO, so I’d encourage you to apply and include as much specific detail as possible. Our nonprofit program coordinator will take all factors into account when reviewing your organization and will be glad to grant the appropriate product discounts, should you qualify. 🙂
And to answer your other question, you can absolutely use Event Tickets independent from The Events Calendar–our Knowledgebase article on configuring Event Tickets/Event Tickets Plus illustrates how to specify what types of posts tickets can be added to. From there, it’s as easy as adding the tickets from the edit page for the appropriate post(s)!
Thanks again for following up, and let me know if there’s anything else I can assist you with!
Caroline
MemberAbsolutely! All of our paid offerings come with one full year of support here on our premium forums, so we’d be more than happy to assist you with any questions you might have during setup or regular use. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to us–we’re here to help! 🙂
Thanks again for your interest, and let me know if there’s anything else I can do for you!
Caroline
MemberHi again! It looks like you’ve gone ahead and marked my last reply as a correct answer, so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread out for now. Please don’t hesitate to follow up with a new thread if you should have any other questions or concerns! 🙂
Caroline
MemberHi there! Thanks so much for stopping by and checking us out–happy to hear you’re considering our plugins for your project! 🙂
Great question. We do provide add-on plugins for The Events Calendar to support importing events from a number of popular platforms and file formats. For your particular situation, I’d suggest Facebook Events for bringing in events from Facebook and iCal Importer for handling iCal exports from Meetup, as detailed in this article. If you’re interested in Events Calendar PRO as well as these plugins, we have a great Importer Bundle that contains all three of these plugins plus Filter Bar, all at a discounted price compared to buying each plugin individually. It’s a fantastic value and definitely recommended if you’re bringing in a lot of events from multiple third-party sources for your project!
Let me know if you should have any questions about any of these products or how they might work in your setup. Or, if you’d prefer a more hands-on approach, you’re more than welcome to demo them for yourself–we offer a generous 30-day return policy on all of our products, so you’re absolutely free to try them first and reach out to us for a full refund if you should find they’re not quite right for you.
Thanks again for your interest, and let me know if there’s anything else I can do to assist!

MemberAt the moment, the only XML format we support is WordPress’s own XML export format, which you can read more about on our Knowledgebase here. For other XML structures, I’d recommend converting your file(s) to CSV format and importing them from there–we have another Knowledgebase article with a list of supported fields and example data for each one, as well as sample CSV files that you can download to use as templates or references when building your own files. Hopefully you’ll find them helpful for your needs! 🙂
Caroline
MemberHi there!
Thanks so much for getting in touch! Since you’re interested in pairing WooCommerce with our plugins, can I assume you’ll be using Event Tickets Plus along with one of our calendar offerings? 🙂 Our Knowledgebase contains a comprehensive list of New User Primers for all of our individual products, including Event Tickets and Event Tickets Plus. These include step-by-step information on setting up the plugins themselves, as well as plenty of tips and links to helpful resources for supported e-commerce solutions like WooCommerce. Hopefully you should find them thorough enough for your needs, but we’re always available here on the forums to assist with any issues you might encounter as you’re getting things up and running!
I hope that helps to address some of your concerns! Let us know if you should have any other questions–and thanks again for stopping by!
