Does this do two-way sync? How does it handle groups?

    Hi,

    I’m considering switching to EME from EventsManager because having the Facebook sync would be great for me.

    However, I couldn’t find good info on what this plugin exactly does…

    Does it just IMPORT Facebook events into the WordPress Calendar, or does it do two-way sync (if I set up an EME event, will this event also be created on Facebook as a Facebook event within my group?)

    Also, I am wondering how the import works:
    I need this plugin to work with facebook groups where a variety of people post links to facebook events (so these events are NOT owned by/attached to the Facebook group in question.
    So my question is: Will I be able to auto-import all events that are posted into a specific FB group? Or will it import only those events that are attached to that group?

    No 2-way sync.
    You can sync multiple event pages and/or groups, but not if they are just posted to a group, you need to point to the event pages (or group pages).

    So, just to clarify: you say that this plugin doesn’t do 2-way sync (which would be IMPORT FROM, and EXPORT TO Facebook).

    So which of the two DOES the plugin do:

    a) export existing EME events to Facebook and publish them as events on a specific page/group

    b) import existing Facebook events into EME

    Thanks!

    Like the plugin description says: “A simple plugin to sync Facebook events to the Events Made Easy plugin”
    So … (b)
