Email members of website when new events are posted

automatically?

Sorry, there’s no way to do that at the moment. You’d need to do some custom coding – or there might well be a mailing list plugin that can be adapted.

I downloaded subsribe2 and inserted the below code in events-manager/em-functions.php file. But that didn’t work…

function event($types) {
    $types[] = 'event';
    return $types;
}
add_filter('s2_post_types', 'event');

Per this link: https://subscribe2.wordpress.com/support/faqs/#24

Any other advice or direction would be greatly appreciated!

I don’t know if this will work for you but try to use mailpress and https://blog.mailpress.org/2011/12/22/custom-post-types-discussion/ since EM is a custom post type.

OK I have looked at Mailpress, but it is to complicated for me.

I found this old post regarding this same issue:
https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/custom-post-type-34?replies=6

On the Settings page I see this:
Subscribe2 will send email notifications for the following custom post types: Event

However on the registered users page event is not listed in the categories, as suggestion in the provided link.

Any ideas on how to correct this?

sorry haven’t tried the link above.
