RSS to Email : Adding Event date(s), Location & Cost to RSS Content?

[webster]

I’m interested in finding a way to add the event meta, such as
Event Date(s) Location, and Cost
to the content of the RSS event post. ( First thing, inserted before RSS content )

I received a complaint, from an rss-to-email subscriber, to the tune of:
“Why do you make me go to the website and check to see a event is in my area, the date, and cost?”

Which is think is a logical question.
My answer, as it stand is: I don’t know how to make that request a reality.

Any hints would be greatly appreciated.

I’m reviewing this article as a starting point, it deals with custom fields, but it could be tribe data instead:

Howdy webster,

I think you will find the following tutorial to be very helpful. It walks you through adding the event dates to your feed. Further fields can be added in the exact same fashion: https://theeventscalendar.com/how-to-add-events-to-your-rss-feed/

In addition I think you migh find our API documentation helpful. In both of these links you will find a list of functions in the left hand column for querying for various event data, including cost, location, etc.

Does that make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know. Cheers!
