Automatically import events from Meetup.com into The Events Calendar.<\/p>\n\n

To get started, make sure that you have The Events Calendar plugin (by Modern Tribe) installed. This plugin will not do anything without it!<\/p>\n\n

This plugin relies on WP Cron to run the import on a schedule, so it will not work if you have disabled WP Cron (sometimes this is done in wp-config.php).<\/p>\n\n

After you have both plugins installed, you need to configure a couple of settings. First navigate to Events -> Import in your Dashboard. From there you can input your Meetup.com API Key<\/a> and choose the post status that should be used for imports.<\/p>\n\n

Next, click on the \"Meetup.com\" tab. From there you can fill in the URL for a Meetup group, select the Event Categories you want it to be mapped to, and hit \"Add Recurring Import\". This will schedule a script to run twice a day to import the upcoming events from that group into The Events Calendar. You can add as many groups as you'd like.<\/p>\n\n

This is an early release of this plugin, so it's a little barebones. Help make it better by contributing yourself - see below!<\/em><\/p>\n\n

Contributing<\/h4>\n\n

You can contribute to development of the plugin on Github<\/a>. Please don't use the repo for technical support. Pull requests will be welcomed for bug fixes and other improvements. Let me know before you start developing a new feature so that we can discuss it.<\/p>\n\n

This plugin is built using the generator-plugin-wp<\/code> Yo generator built by WebDevStudios.<\/p>\n\n

Disclaimer<\/h4>\n\n

I am not affiliated with Meetup, Inc or Modern Tribe (developers of The Events Calendar). This plugin is not endorsed, sponsored, or certified by Meetup, Inc or Modern Tribe. I really hope they like it though.<\/p>\n\n\n
