Featured (sponsored) Events.\u00a0 I plan on building a robust community events calendar for my county.\u00a0 I would love to be able to monetize the calendar by allowing event organizers to purchase sponsored event placement.\u00a0 These events would be placed above all other events in each view and would be styled to stand out from standard events.\u00a0 I would like to give organizers the ability to purchase sponsored placement both when entering their own events as well as the ability to upgrade any of their events which already exist on the site.<\/p>\n<p>Would you have a rough idea of the scope of work involved with something like this should I decide to bring in an experienced developer to assist?\u00a0 Would we be talking days or weeks to implement?\u00a0 Also, is this functionality in your roadmap?<\/p>\n<p>2. Import options other than csv.\u00a0 I&#8217;m going to be dealing with hundreds of event listings from dozens of venues so naturally I would like to automate as much of the process as possible.\u00a0 I played with time.ly and I liked their automatic import from Google calendars and ical.\u00a0 Is anything along those lines in the works for TEC?<\/p>\n<p>Misc. Questions:<\/p>\n<p>1. If I use the community events add on, can event organizers claim and edit their events if they were initially created by an admin?<\/p>\n<p>2.\u00a0 If event details change after the initial event publication will the altered details be updated in the calendar if I re-import through Facebook event imports and\/or csv imports?<\/p>\n<p>3. I found some detailed documentation on your site about setting the plugin up to work on Genesis but it appeared to reference a previous version of the plugin.\u00a0 Is the calendar plug and play with Genesis, or are there specific steps that need to be taken to get it to work?<\/p>\n<p>For what it&#8217;s worth, I&#8217;ve found some other products that contain all the features I&#8217;m looking for but none seem to come close to you guys in terms of documentation and support.\u00a0 That goes a long way in my book so I&#8217;m hoping I can build on any features that may be missing for my specific needs.\u00a0 Thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-150433","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>pre sales questions -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/pre-sales-questions-3\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"pre sales questions -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi guys,\u00a0 your products and support look to be rock solid so I&#8217;m really hoping I can get your events calendar to work for my site.
