EventOn CSV Event Importer Add-on

Entering event information one record at a time can take effort when a calendar has many events to manage. This add-on imports event details from a CSV file into EventON, including dates, locations, organizers, and custom fields. It suits event managers maintaining an existing schedule as well as those moving event information from another platform.

The importer processes events in the background using AJAX and provides status updates during the import. Include event IDs in the CSV to update existing entries. The add-on also handles recurring event data and custom event fields, and WordPress actions and filters allow developers to extend the import process with additional fields.
