Hello,

Thank you for your idea!

I’m really sorry that at the moment we do not support Events, and I do believe we will find a way to fix it. Unfortunately, we’re facing technical difficulties in doing that at the moment, but we’ll keep searching :pray:t2:

Thank you for your help!

hello just checking if there is anything coming for a Facebook Events feed? I see Smashballoon is able to offer an events feed these days, so hopefully the technical issues can be overcome and this is something that is coming to Elfsight soon?

@michael24 thank you for your comment and for the example!

I’m really sorry that the events are not supported in our Facebook Feed app yet :frowning:

Since we use the official API, we did face an obstacle when trying to implement support for events, but I’m afraid we don’t know how exactly other companies do it.

We have plans to get back to this request but we don’t have an ETA as of yet, unfortunately :frowning:

Anyways, I’ll make sure to keep you updated on the progress here.

Thanks a lot for your interest and understanding!

My clients would truly benefit from having a Facebook Event feed and/or carousel.
I hope you can make this happen soon! :blush:

I have a client that wants a simple events list on his website. They put all their events on their Facebook page and it would be great if I could just feed that info from Facebook.

Many thanks for sharing, @EdgeMarketing, and welcome to the community!

Even though the Facebook API can be challenging to work with, I hope we’ll find a way to make events available in our Facebook widget :slight_smile:

Thanks a lot for your help, much appreciated!

@M_Buby great to welcome you to our community! :hugs:

You know, we wish we were able to add support for events, but at the moment Facebook API doesn’t let us do so, unfortunately.

But we still hope to find a solution in the future, and I’ll post here as soon as I have any news :slight_smile:

Would be great to be able to display several Facebook events on on website page! With title, dates, photos, and link to the event on FB.

Hi @Petzl_Distribution

I totally share your point! This request already exists in our Wishlist, so I’ve moved your message to the dedicated topic. We’ll keep you in the loop here :slightly_smiling_face:

Thanks a bunch for your idea!

A possibly helpful suggestion. Be fantastic to be able to import events directly from FB as per the reviews!

This feature request has been pending since October 2022, and as we approach 2025, we hope to see some progress soon.

One of the reasons I plan to leave Elfsight before my renewal in two months.

Hello guys, @user18864, @user18864 :wave:

Thank you so much for the feedback!

I wish I had some updates to share, but unfortunately, we don’t have any news just yet.

The thing is that we prioritize requests based on two main factors: their complexity and the number of votes they get. Right now, we have a bunch of requests with the higher priority level and our devs are working on them.

However, we totally get how important this feature is for you, and I’ve passed your feedback along to the dev team. Fingers crossed, we can take a look at it next year, but we can’t promise anything just yet.

If anything changes, we’ll promptly update you here :slightly_smiling_face:
