Do you still have staff maintaining imports from Facebook profiles? It does not look like it. Facebook’s new privacy policy still allows imports of events that a profile is interested in, so it is important that your aggregator handles it. Go to our calendar and pick almost any event and see how poorly your calendar is loading events from our Facebook profile. <\/p>\n

All that is transferred reliably is the title, the date and time, and the description. The venue being screwed up is especially concerning because people need to know where an event will occur. Organizer info doesn’t load, venue details are missing, the image is never transferred. It has been like this for months. The worst part of this is your software has filled our venue database up with incomplete information. Mostly only venue names, absent the address, city or state. <\/p>\n

I alerted you to the problem with images not importing a couple of months ago and *you still have not fixed the problem*. <\/p>\n

If you do not have plans to fix these bugs, *please let me know*. We will go to a different calendar. But I would appreciate knowing if we should stick it out with you, waiting for you to fix things.<\/p>\n

Thank you.
