How to add to Dallas Makerspace Meetup?

When you add things to the calendar, do they automagicly get added to the meetup?

If not, how do I add things to the meetup?

@Calendar_Team

Currently, the new calendar system does not automatically export the classes/meetings to Meetup like the old system did. Itā€™s something that is being discussed.

If you already have a Meetup account and are a member of the Dallas Makerspace Meetup, since you are now the chairperson over Digital Media (plus will be working along with PR and the Classroom committee), I can elevate your access to allow you to post eventsā€¦ However, one of the biggest reasons we are not encouraging it at the moment, is because the ā€œrsvpā€ function on Meetup cannot be turned off; and, a lot of times - no matter how obvious the description of the event clearly states to ā€œregisterā€ on our calendar system, people still tend to ā€˜rspvā€™ on meetup - believing it will hold a spot for them. That being said, one work-around would be to ā€œlimitā€ anything posted on Meetup to just ONE participant; and, make sure that YOU are that participantā€¦ (and also make it as clear as you possibly can that they must register via our calendar system - preferable with a direct link to the event). Let me know if you want to be added (and what your meetup account username is) - IF you want to post some one-offsā€¦ Otherwise, keep your eyes open for updates about the new calendar system (there are still a handful of things that are going to be implemented soonā€¦ :slight_smile: )
