I have purchased 3 licenses for 3 domains:

bcncc.org
man2mansonoma.org
companyofexperts.net

Everything is working fine and I love your software!

What I need now is to share the same data from a single domain, companyofexperts.net, with 4 other domains. I want to have just the event title and date show up on other domains, linking them to our calendar on the licensed domain.

How can I do this?

Here is what I am after (see the light grey area labled "schedule of AIFTs):

I understand how to maniputate the tempates, but what stumps me is how to pull data from one domain to another.

Thanks for your help!

Are they all on the same server?

What database type did you use?

Some are.

What database type did you use?

Flat file.

If you are on the same server and can use mySQL, you should be able to share the database between each web site by setting the mySQL information the same on each install.

Otherwise, you would probably need to write a short script that will copy the database to each of the other domains.

Are you saying that I can change from a flat file to a mySQL database? If so, how do I do this? Is this necessary?

How whould the sharing be set up? Do I need to purchase a calendar for each domain?

From looking at the sites, you would need a license for each site.

mySQL Setup: http://docs.easyphpcalendar.com/source/SetupManager/Databases/mySQL.htm

If you set up each calendar with the same mySQL database settings (assuming they are all on the same server), the events from one calendar will share with the other calendar.

You will want to test this before purchasing the additional licenses to make sure it will do as you want.

There isn't a way to convert flat-file events to mySQL.
