Where and how do I add the “add to calendar” on the Thank You for registering page and use the same code/link for the MailChimp automated email?

Hi,

Where? Please see: https://eventespresso.com/wiki/create-site-specific-plugin-wordpress-site/

The code you’ll add will be similar to this example:

With regards to MailChimp automated emails, I’m not very familiar with those, can you elaborate?

With the MailChimp add on activated, an email is automatically sent to those who register for an event. Currently, it is set to automatically welcome a registrant to the subscriber list, which they have the option to accept or not.

Anyway, we can schedule mails via MailChimp from those in an event list to be sent a confirmation email of their registration, along with an option to add the event to their Outlook/Gmail calendar.

You would need to manually add any ical links to the Mailchimp newsletter, as those cannot include PHP code or WordPress shortcodes.
