When using Event Calendar Newsletter, you can filter what events are returned based on time (ie. the next two weeks), category, or other parameters depending on which WordPress event calendar plugin you are using. By saving your parameters as a template, you can quickly regenerate the output of your events.
This is also the first step for pulling your events automatically into your email campaigns, either with Mailchimp (inside a campaign or in an automatic daily, weekly or monthly Mailchimp RSS campaign), through a shortcode (ie. with MailPoet), or another RSS campaign. See the rest of the documentation for more details.
Creating a Template
- On the main Events Calendar Newsletter screen, select the parameters for your events (number of weeks/months in the future, the categories you want to include, etc) and click Generate Newsletter Formatted Events
- In the “Save As Template” box that appears, enter a title/description for your saved template and click Save.
