Once you've set up your events in Cvent,
Linvio, or Campus Groups, we have to tell
Livewhale where your event feed is and how to
identify your events.
Livewhale must know what text string you're
going to use.
On the Livewhale
information screen, you’ll see a
complete list of the active feeds that deliver
event information to the platform. Each of
those shows the feed name, the feed source and
the way the feed is being utlized within the
platform.
Livewhale Feed Info Breakdown
- Feed name - what Livewhale is
expecting the Company name to be
- Feed source - which platform the feed is
coming from (Cvent, Linvio, or Campus
Groups)
- Destination calendar - which calendar
group
the feed is being stored in
Livewhale categories - which category or
categories are being assigned to each
event in
that feed
- Livewhale tags - which tag or tags are
being
assigned to each event in the feed.
Taxonomies such as calendar groups,
categories, and tags are used to identify
events to be pushed into pages on WordPress -
so in this case we’d tell the Livewhale panel
to use the Pillsbury tag to populate Pillsbury
events on their pages. More complex filtering
of events is possible, but not commonly needed
outside of college/school homepages.
My unit isn’t showing up on this
list…
If you look at the Livewhale
information screen and do not see your unit or
program represented, please submit a request
to MarCom. We’re happy to work with you to get
your events populating in Livewhale and
WordPress.
