I thought I would share this as a quick fix for the question asked on
\nLink back to the original Facebook event<\/a> forum post.<\/p>\n

I am sure the gurus at tribe will come up with a better, built in, solution in an update but this seems to be working for me. It creates a nice themed button to the original Facebook event at the bottom of the right meta column in the single event view page (under the event address) .<\/p>\n

Edit: looks like the forum is mistaking some code in a function as HTML so here is a link to the below steps: http:\/\/pastebin.com\/yVAL8Mwp<\/a>
\nStep 1: Paste this into your theme’s functions.php file:
\n============================
\n
\n\/**
\n*Plugin: Tribe Facebook Events Importer
\n*Checks if the event came from facebook
\n*\/
\nfunction is_fb_event(){
\n$fbMeta=tribe_get_event_meta();
\n$verifyString=\"facebook-importer\";
\n$result=true;
\n\tif ($fbMeta['_EventOrigin']['0']==$verifyString){
\n\t\t$result=true;
\n\t\treturn $result;
\n\t}
\n\tif ($fbMeta['_EventOrigin']['0']!=$verifyString){
\n\t\t$result=false;
\n\t\treturn NULL;
\n\t}
\n}<\/p>\n

\/**
\n*Plugin: Tribe Facebook Events Importer
\n*Builds a button to the original facebook event page in the event's info page
\n*\/
\nfunction build_fb_link(){
\n$fbMeta=tribe_get_event_meta();
\n$eventID=$fbMeta['_FacebookID']['0'];
\necho \"Join event on Facebook<\/b><\/a>\";
\n}
\n<\/code><\/p>\n

Step 2: Paste this into your theme’s CSS file (or “events.css”)
\n=============================
\n
\n#tribe-events-event-meta .fb {<\/p>\n

background: url(http:\/\/www.mricons.com\/store\/png\/111375_28291_32_facebook_logo_icon.png) #3B5998 10px 5px no-repeat;
\nbackground-size:22px 22px!important;
\nfloat:left;
\nclear:left;
\nfont-weight:bold;
\nwidth:145px;
\nheight:23px;
\npadding: 7px 0px 0px 38px;
\nmargin: 0 0 20px 30px;
\n-webkit-border-radius: 4px;
\n-moz-border-radius: 4px;
\nborder-radius: 4px;
\n}<\/p>\n

#tribe-events-event-meta .fb a{
\ncolor: #ffffff!important;
\n}<\/p>\n

#tribe-events-event-meta .fb a:hover{
\ntext-decoration:underline;
\n}<\/p>\n

<\/code>
\nStep 3: Paste this into your “single.php” file in your “plugins\/the-events-calendar\/views\/” folder between line 84 and 85
\n==============================
\n
