Hi all, 

I had a question and thought I would just ask the group to see what thoughts you might have. I'm working on a website and they would like to pull upcoming workshops and training events from the UNCG Workshops & Events Calendar, similar to what ITS recently did with their updated page

We've tried using the RSS feed but when we put in the site, https://workshops.uncg.edu/, it pulls some events from the site but not the upcoming ones. We even tried variation of the site address, using specific categories and tags but that didn't seem to work either. 

Any suggestions?

Hi Carla,

This is the correct address for the full feed: workshops.uncg.edu/events/feed

If you want to filter it down you can also add a category like this: 
workshops.uncg.edu/events/category/soe/feed

Hope this helps!

Sara,

Thanks for that information. I don't know why it wasn't working for me before but now it's working like magic. Appreciate it!

Hi all, 

I have a follow-up to this question I asked a while back. While the RSS feed address (https://workshops.uncg.edu/events/category/facultypd/feed) is working on our site (https://facultysupport.uncg.edu/) it doesn't seem to have a rhyme or reason as to which events it showcases. Is there any suggestions on how to get it to show the upcoming events?
