Automation for posting calendar events

[gammaw]

Idea:

• Add automation outside WP admin area -> on custom page instead (implemented through the Javascript Wordpress/The Events Calendar REST API)
• You'll need to be logged in for using the page
• List Jetpack's Feedback entries. Note: this seems to be regular posts with specific type (see https://mmmnmnm.com/wp-admin/edit.php?post_type=feedback URL) but they will not be listed in the public API response (see /wp-json/wp/v2/posts)
• Use The Events Calendar's API to create new events (see link below)

Challenges:

• File upload for images: you may use WP Form's paid tier for submitting cover art
• Parse Feedback entries as they are in text form (email). Note that a prerequisite for the above plan to work is that the Feedback antries are enumerable on the API.
