Hi, <\/p>\n

I’ve just purchased the events aggregator. <\/p>\n

I may have missed something obvious but I was expecting to be able to map the field imported fields to what the events calendar uses the same way as with a CSV import. <\/p>\n

The reason for this is we have hundreds of categories so having the ability to bulk import is essential however not being able to map any fields greatly reduces the functionality of the product. <\/p>\n

for example, as categories are not supported my plan was to enter the category into the description field on google and map that field to the category on the events calendar, however, this doesn’t seem possible?<\/p>\n

I did have a quick look into using an open source PHP calendar that i would be able to add these custom field to but again this is useless unless im able to map that field to the category in the events calendar itself. <\/p>\n

Hopefully your able to offer a solution?<\/p>\n

thanks
