Event Invites / Update Emails

    There are two things I am trying to setup before our site goes live, and I was hoping someone could help me. I’ve found a couple of posts, but they all seem to trail off and/or are old so I thought there might be new information.

    1. We would like users to be able to invite their friends to an event they have created (through buddypress). Is this something that has been implemented in the Pro version or has anyone done anything like this?

    2. We would like to send update emails out to attendees when an event has been changed (i.e. the date/time especially) or deleted. I found this which kind of addresses what I’m trying to do, but I was wondering if that was the only way to do something like this?

    If so, where would I look to find the hooks i can use? The Hooks and Filters page on the website doesn’t have that information.

    Thanks for your help!

    hi,

    this isn’t available at the moment however maybe you can try to hook into em_event_save filter and then call wp_mail() – http://codex.ww.wp.xz.cn/Function_Reference/wp_mail

    I think that will be perfect. Thanks!

    Are invites a feature that might be implemented in the future?

    yes, although when exactly depends on how popular the request gets, we have a lot of features we need to implement beforehand due to demand.

    Hi,
    “when exactly depends on how popular the request gets”
    It will be great that users can invite friends to their events.
    Without it, Events Manager and Buddypress are not so compatible ;).

    @tabykatt
    I’m a novice in php, would you please show me how did you manage that users send invitations for their events ?
