Facebook Events via Calendar Feed ICS

There is no integration or compatibility with FB events.
There was but FB kept changing the API and ended access.

I heard about, but these guys still do the trick right here and now:
https://smashballoondemo.com/events/
So it is possible, or do I overlook something?

But even if Ai1 doesn’t access FB directy, the calendar feed option should work in general. I guess that the .ics is kind of standardized, and if I check the .ics file that FB is transmitting via that feed, I find entries as
DTSTART:20160130T090000Z
DTEND:20160131T150000Z
in it, so the information about start and end date is there, but not taken correctly by Ai1 which simply put the actual date of import.

This is not FB specific I guess, but I cannot find a way to import an event manually through an .ics file to test out more. Is there a chance to do so?
Or if someone has another feed link of his events where it works, I would be glad to check it out.

It’s unsupported so you’ll need to contact those responsible for the reference you give.
If you host an ics somewhere you should be able to add it.

I understand that Time.ly doesn’t give support for FB Integration.
But as it seems the available and supported Calendar feed option (which as a side-effect would also allow a FB integration workaround) is not working as it should.

If you click on the link of my original post, you will be delivered a proper .ics with correct start and end time date, and Ai1 will import 10 events, but none of them takes the correct data as given by the .ics.

This is why I suppose there is a bug somewhere.

If the official team could test this it would be nice.
If anyone uses the calendar feed and it works properly, I would be glad for a link so I can investigate a bit if I find differences that might cause the failure.

I am also having problems with this. A few months ago, I tested Ai1 with a Facebook ical feed created by Wallflux. It worked correctly then.

Now I am getting back to this project, and tests no longer work, even though the Wallflux feed looks valid ( https://wallflux.com/events/1698337733768532 ). Ai1 imports the title, but not the date.

So there does seem to be a bug in Ai1.

Does anyone have ical feeds working properly from other sources?

Oh, this seems to be the problem discussed here: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/ics-feed-no-longer-working-after-installing-wp-44/page/2?replies=48

I upgraded the Ai1 plugin, removed my old feed, recreated it, and now the Facebook->Wallflux event seems to come in properly. Hopefully that fixes your problem too, Sofian.

I have been searching for an hour and I confirm that there is no solution with this plugin to sync FB events. As there is no good plugin for this functionnality, I developped a prototype with the FB API and a bootstrap template but I don’t know to build a plugin for wordpress ??

Paidge, there’s no direct way to sync FB events, but I am successfully using https://wallflux.com/ to generate Facebook feeds which Ai1 can import.

Thanks norristh for the link to wallflux. I’ll try it ?? But there is a direct way to sync FB events ?? I gave you the link to the prototype I developped. Using the FB API (here PHP, there is one in javascript too), you can retrieve events and feed a calendar ??
