    How can I add a second link field on an event?

    One link to go to the page with more info,
    the other to go to the place they can buy a ticket?

    There is currently only one link field available. You could add the ticket link on the “more info” page. I will consider adding a second link field in a future release, but for now it isn’t possible.

    Thanks for your quick response.
    You have made a very lovely interface.

    My ideal:
    one event is one film (and no extra page is needed for “more info”; custom fields collect the other info on the event).
    Each film has multiple screenings; each screening needs to appear in the calendar. Other than date, time and ticket link, all screenings are identical.

    The bonus add-ons don’t allow this, do they? (I’m not wanting to sell tickets just link to the url).

    IMPORTING
    The bonus does allow importing, so I could assemble all the multiples of the film into a csv to make the data entry easier.
    Can I import using the csv into custom fields?

    Currently I think the best way:
    One post per film.
    Ticket links with date and time appear on the film post.
    One event for each screening, linking to the film post.
    I either use recurrence to list the other screenings;
    or using the bonus add-on, I import the list of individual screenings (so it is less cumbersome to get all the duplicates online. (Slugs get a bit unhappy with duplicate titles; maybe the csv allows the slug to be imported too))

    Any change to the date or time has to be updated in two places: on the event, and on the ticket link on the film post.

    Can you share any more detail about the scope of the import file?

    Cheers

    The import does not support custom fields. I have provided a list of all the fields available for import in the documentation at https://spiffycalendar.spiffyplugins.ca/import-export-events/.

    Since import is a bonus feature, if you need further help or information please use the contact form at https://spiffycalendar.spiffyplugins.ca/contact/.
