 * Alex, thanks, but couldn’t you have temporarily put a notice on that URL (apparently
   sopresto.mailchimp.com) telling us what the trouble was?
 * I had to log in here (WordPress.org forums) to figure out what was wrong; I thought
   your service was just not working any more.
 * In the Social plugin, clicking on the “Sign in with” links to try to fix things,
   all I was seeing was a popup browser window with
 * > “Address Not Found
   > sopresto.mailchimp.com could not be found. Please check the name and try again.”
 * I would guess a lot of your users wouldn’t have bothered going further. (After
   all this is a pretty niche service for people like me who don’t like staying 
   logged in to social networks. 🙂 )
 * Anyway, that aside, I love the plugin and have been using it for months, so thank
   you for the service.

 * Okay, to each his or her own. The useful part is that everything gets linked 
   back to one calendar, you can display events and listings in multiple ways, there
   is automatic payment tracking, there are location maps, categories, notifications,
   etc., etc. And no 3rd parties taking cuts or restricting use. We publish our 
   events and mirror them into posts, “tweets”, etc.
 * Sure, in the end it’s a VERY fancy overlay on top of a PayPal button, but what
   isn’t? 🙂
 * By the way, EME doesn’t “create a page called Events” either — you have to do
   that, and tell EME where it is. (Edit: or maybe it does; the FAQ says so, and
   it’s been a while since I installed; anyhow, the page is arbitrary.) Again, it’s
   just a blank placeholder, no configuration or content required on that page. 
   In case you didn’t know, this started as a fork of another successful plugin 
   called Events Manager. Good luck.

 * It works. The PayPal specific code DOES report back to your server when the payment
   is processed. There’s an “IPN” interface standard at work. (You just include 
   the booking form, #_ADDBOOKINGFORM, in the “Default single event format”.)
 * Right now we have events for which 7 people have registered, and our EME “Pending
   Approvals” page shows that so far 3 of them have successfully paid through PayPal.
 * Technically we never really bother to “approve” the registrations within EME;
   all that would do is generate more e-mail messages. As far as I can tell it’s
   more for internal bookkeeping than anything else.

 * The big mystery for me was solved once I realized how much power the little “
   Default single event format” box has over the operation of Events Made Easy. 
   We have no need for Eventbrite or its ilk, and we maintain control of our event
   planning, registration, and payments.
 * Once you (a) designate an Events page (it’s a PLACEHOLDER only) and then (b) 
   customize the contents of that “Default single event format” box in the EME settings,
   you’re on your way.
 * I’ve put out versions of my own settings before, which you might find helpful.

 * I’ve managed to hack at EME’s code so that it produces a WP Post closely mimicking
   each event.
 * Now I can manually go to each of those resulting posts and use Social’s broadcast
   buttons.
 * But the post creation (via wp_insert_post) is NOT kicking off Social’s automated
   broadcasts.
 * Do I have to switch to an xml-rpc approach to get Social to pick up automatically
   on these new posts?

 * Yes, I noticed… but you also marked it “Resolved”?
 * Also, I suggested uninstalling(deleting the plugin)/reinstalling, not merely 
   deactivating/reactivating. Kind of a big difference, and it might help…

 * Viktor, are you at WordPress 3.4.1? I think the reworked menu bar is brand new
   with that release. (And I think I liked it better the old way.)
 * If you’re at that version of WordPress, and then you uninstall and reinstall 
   Social, it should work…?

 * Prof. Jerz, I tried adding the following comment to your blog but apparently 
   the “WP-Sentinel” system you use is not very good. (Big red scary warning, you’re
   an attacker blah blah, “Variable comment of the POST method triggered the filter‘
   common comment types’).
 * Anyway, thanks for the quick hack. Here’s what I tried to post there:
 * Guys, I’m pretty sure the “Find Social Comments” is just added to the WP 3.4 
   banner menu by Social, AND that it appears all the time, independent of and unrelated
   to the post OR the page you’re viewing. I don’t think Prof. Jerz’s hack changed
   it. (I haven’t applied the hack, and the Find Social menu appears everywhere 
   as I describe.)
 * FYI I’ve added a question on Hooks and Filters to the support forum on wordpress.
   org — Alex has mentioned it several times but I don’t see any actual documentation
   on the available filters…

   new update; thanks for trying WP-CRM” to all the unanswered threads here and 
   in your own forums, especially since you’re saying that many outstanding issues
   were addressed.

   Nice. And their own forums are similarly ignored. I understand that the paying
   customers get top priority, but how does one decide to become a customer if one
   can’t find out anything about the product? Oh well, moving on.
