Description

The Sync Events addon mirrors events between the EventON and external calendar sources, keeping the site calendar aligned with other publishing points without duplicate manual registrations.

Main Features

  • Agenda synchronization
    Mirrors EventON events with external calendar sources compatible with the addon.
  • Automatic updates
    Propagates date, time and description changes as soon as the event is edited in the dashboard.
  • Centralized management in EventON
    Keeps WordPress as the primary source of event data, preventing edits in multiple locations.
  • EventON field mapping
    Reuses title, description, location and time already registered in the base plugin’s standard form.
  • Configuration via the EventON dashboard
    Adds synchronization options in the already familiar administrative menu for users of the base plugin.

Benefits of Sync Events

  • Fewer typing redundancies
    Eliminates the need to re-register the same event across different calendar tools.
  • Calendar always up-to-date
    Reduces the risk of posting conflicting times between the site and parallel channels.
  • Consistency across channels
    Ensures that both the public and internal team see the same data for each event.
  • Time savings in operations
    Free’s the organizer from repetitive tasks and reduces human error margin.

Who is it for?

  • Event organizers who keep the calendar on more than one platform besides EventON.
  • Businesses, churches, schools and associations that need to align public and internal calendars.
  • Marketing and event production teams looking to reduce duplicate registrations and discrepancies.

Recommended for event sites that rely on parallel calendars for promotion and internal operations, the Sync Events reduces the chance of discrepancies between what the public sees and what the team controls. It works within the existing EventON workflow, without requiring additional training for users who add events in the WordPress dashboard.
