Maybe it should be stated somewhere before people purchase it with that intent?<\/p>\n<p>2) If an event doesn&#8217;t have an image, it creates a broken image in the WordPress Media section, and links the Featured Image for the event to it. This causes a broken image on pages displaying the event.<\/p>\n<p>3) I see there is a functions.php hack to add a link back to the facebook event page, but why isn&#8217;t it using the &#8216;Event Website&#8217; -&gt; &#8216;URL&#8217; field by default, rather than creating a new place for the URL?
