I just need a bit more clarification about importing from external websites with Event Aggregator.<\/p>\n

My site is going to be a central site that lists the events from dozens of cabaret clubs around the United States. Most of these clubs have calendars on their sites and ideally, if Aggregator can pull the events from those calendars automatically into my site, that would be great!<\/p>\n

I understand that the only formats supported are CSV, ICS, Google, iCalendar, Eventbrite and Meetup. So if the sites that I want to pull from have a calendar in any of those formats, do I just input the url of their calendar and Aggregator automatically imports all the information to my site? OR do I need any kind of permission or login details from the club themselves in order to access their calendar?<\/p>\n

For instance: this club uses a Google calendar: http:\/\/www.westbankcafe.com\/laurie-beechman-theatre<\/p>\n

So do I just input this url into Aggregator and it gets all the info or do I need to contact the club for information\/access\/permission? <\/p>\n

This site does not seem to use a calendar in the format you list: https:\/\/donttellmamanyc.com\/shows<\/p>\n

So I know that Aggregator will not pull from that calendar. So what do I need to get from the club in order to include their events in my calendar?<\/p>\n

I’m just trying to determine how much “permission and access” I need to get from the clubs and whether it is worth getting Aggregator if most of the clubs don’t have their calendars in these formats.<\/p>\n

Thank you!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1611753","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nImporting from other websites using Event Aggregator -<\/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\/importing-from-other-websites-using-event-aggregator\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Importing from other websites using Event Aggregator -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"I just need a bit more clarification about importing from external websites with Event Aggregator.
