New Features & Fixes: Facebook + Free + Ad Reports + TRUE DAT

We just released a few important features and fixes that we are excited to share!

Facebook Share Prompt

When a user is logged into your site via Facebook and adds an event to his calendar, a popup share prompt for Facebook will appear. This is live across ALL of our sites so that your Facebook users can be sharing what they're doing and your site!

Still to come: share prompt after entering Giveaways or RSVPing.

Free Automated at Last

We have created a way to automate your Free list! Similar to your Guestlist and Top Picks users, your Free user will be set up to automatically vote on events that have "Free" checked with event creation, either in Admin (under the "Tickets" section) or on your site.

When Free is checked:

  • *The event will automatically be added to your Free list 
  • NOTE: We will be inputting a cache bust so that this happens automatically without you having to bust the user cache.
  • *A tag similar to your "EVERY DAY" that reads "FREE" will show on the event card in your listing pages
  • *"Free" will be added to the topline info on the event page



We will add the Free user ID to automate this for you UNLESS you choose to omit the automatic addition to the list. In which case, the check would simply add the tag and topline info.

Ad Reports


  • 1. We input a section on "How To Read This Report" at the top of all ad reports so that instead of "Coming Soon," your metrics are defined.
  • 2. We also added text to each section for clarification about the stats!
  • 3. We removed the option to pull ad reports from events pages in Admin because these were no longer applicable.

Other Notable Fixes


  1. Similar to the "Free" tag and topline info change explained above, "Sold Out" will now appear in a tag on listing pages and in topline info instead of in a button
  2. In the Artist Creation form, "Title" now reads "Artist Name"
  3. Error pages on the new ECP have been improved
  4. New ECPs were showing dates on event cards, which was unnecessary and has been removed
  5. This morning the date field for future events was reading "TRUE," which was also keeping selected future date listing pages from showing. This was not a Ram Dass inspired comment on the nature of time and reality. It has been fixed!
