    Hi everyone,
    I added JetPack to my wordpress site because my aim is plublishing events to my facebook page.
    My wordpress site uses Events Manager pluggin to manage events: events are custom post type.

    I added this code to my functions in child theme:

    add_action('init', 'my_custom_init');
function my_custom_init() {
    add_post_type_support( 'event', 'publicize' );
    add_post_type_support( 'event-recurring', 'publicize' );
}

    and I followed this guide http://jetpack.com/support/publicize/

    but when I publish an event it doesn’t appear in my facebook page.

    How can I do?

    Thanks

    Once you’ve added the code snippet above, do you see the Publicize Details box right above the Publish button, when creating new events?

    If so, could you make sure the checkboxes are checked before you hit Publish, and let me know if it helps?

    If you continue to experience issues, could you post your site URL here so I can have a look?

    My site is http://www.dayroma.it and when I publish an event it doesn’t appear nothing above the publish button.

    I followed this guide:
    – Go to Settings → Sharing in your dashboard;
    – Click on “Connect” next to the Social Network you want to connect to;
    – Log in to that Social Network site and authorize the connection.

    I would like to publish events-posts on my facebook page…
    The best it would be to publish directly a facebook event, but I suppose is very difficult to do 🙁

    What can I do to solve publication problem?

    That’s the issue here. It looks like the code you posted above isn’t active yet.

    Could you try to move that code into a functionality plugin like this one?

    I’m afraid Facebook doesn’t offer an API allowing you to automatically create events yet, so that won’t be possible.
