1. When I import an event from facebook, the venues get duplicated whether the venue is already in the database or not. Not sure why. Ive spent a better part of the week going through the code and database and have no clue why its happening. Is there a way to add a unique condition to the database so that the venues stay singular if the data to be entered is PRECISELY the same as a previous entry?<\/p>\n

Relatedly,<\/p>\n

2) If I empty all venues from the database, what effect will it have on all previously existing events? Will all events function as normal but just seem not to have venues associated with them?<\/p>\n

Thanks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-835865","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nDuplicate Venues upon import from Facebook \/ how to dump all venues? -<\/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\/duplicate-venues-upon-import-from-facebook-how-to-dump-all-venues\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Duplicate Venues upon import from Facebook \/ how to dump all venues? -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"1.
