To start the process of selecting the desired events, fill in where the events are held, who is holding the events, who the events are for etc. Keywords and tags can be input to narrow down the parameters for more specific results. Results can be refined under the 鈥淐ontent Must Match鈥 area to help specify which events should or shouldn鈥檛 be included.
When the parameters are all set, click 鈥淕enerate Embed Code鈥. This will generate a bunch of code to make up the Event Feed. Simply copy the given code and return to the WordPress page. Paste the embed code in 鈥淓vent feed widget code鈥 and the events should be added to the Event Feed.
