Event Espresso Importer

Description

The Importer addon adds to Event Espresso a bulk import mechanism for events, dates, and prices from CSV files, eliminating manual event-by-event registration in the admin panel. This complement maps file columns to Event Espresso’s native fields (title, description, times, capacity, tickets), speeding up migration of old calendars or publishing extensive schedules all at once.

Main Features

• CSV Import
  Loads CSV files with batches of events directly into the Event Espresso panel.
• Column Mapping
  Associates file columns with the native event, date, and ticket fields.
• Batch Date Registration
  Creates multiple dates and times for each event in a single operation.
• Ticket Import
  Defines ticket types, prices, and capacity limits in the same flow.
• Calendar Migration
  Allows transferring schedules from other tools into Event Espresso.

Benefits of Importer

• Time Savings on Registration
  Replaces hours of manual entry with a single spreadsheet import.
• Lower Human Error Risk
  Standardizes data via controlled file, reducing discrepancies between events.
• Fast Schedule Publication
  Allows activating extensive calendars in a few steps, without back-work in admin.
• Ease of Platform Transition
  Helps migrate from the previous system to Event Espresso without losing history.

Who Is Recommended For?

• Event organizers with extensive and recurring schedules.
• Education institutions, churches, and associations that publish full seasonal calendars.
• Teams migrating from other event platforms to Event Espresso.

Designed for those who manage large volumes of events on WordPress, this component of Event Espresso turns spreadsheets into functional records, with dates, tickets, and capacities already configured. It is recommended for production companies, schools, cultural centers, and religious organizations that need to keep an up-to-date schedule without relying on repetitive manual registration in the panel.
