Not sure whether this is your setup? Send me your ticketing link and the WordPress calendar plugin you use. I will point you to the right guide.
1. Install Modern Events Calendar
In your WordPress admin, go to Plugins > Add New and search for Modern Events Calendar.
Install and activate the plugin. WordPress will add Modern Events Calendar event management to your admin. That is where your imported PatronManager events will appear after Jeero has synced them.
2. Install Jeero
Go to Plugins > Add New and search for Jeero.
Install and activate the plugin. Jeero adds its own admin section where you can connect a ticketing solution to one or more WordPress calendar plugins.
You do not need a paid Jeero plan to test the setup. The free plan is enough to confirm that PatronManager events are arriving in WordPress.
3. Connect PatronManager
Open Jeero > Imports in the WordPress admin and create a new import.
Choose PatronManager as the ticketing solution and save the import once. Reopen the import, then open the PatronManager tab.
Jeero will ask for your PatronManager domain name:
For example: https://sillytickets.my.salesforce-sites.com/ticket
If you are not sure which PatronManager details Jeero needs, send me your public ticketing URL. I can usually tell what to ask your PatronManager admin for.
Save the import. Jeero checks the connection and shows whether it can reach upcoming PatronManager events.
4. Enable Modern Events Calendar Import
Open the Modern Events Calendar tab in the Jeero import settings.
Enable the import and save your changes. Jeero will now send upcoming PatronManager events to Modern Events Calendar.
Start with the default import settings. After you have confirmed that events are syncing, you can decide whether Jeero should update event categories, images, and custom templates on first import only or on every import. Leave Status for new events on Draft if you want to review imported events first. Choose Publish if the events should appear on the public website after the first import.
5. Check Your First Events
The first sync usually runs within a few minutes.
Go to Modern Events Calendar events in the WordPress admin and check whether your upcoming PatronManager events appear. Open one imported event and confirm the basics:
- The title matches the PatronManager event.
- The date and time are correct.
- The description and image are present when PatronManager provides them.
- The venue information is present when PatronManager provides one.
- The ticket link sends visitors to the correct PatronManager ticket page.
- Prices appear when PatronManager exposes usable price data.
- Status appears when PatronManager provides it.
If no events appear yet, wait a few minutes and check that the Jeero import is active and your PatronManager domain name is correct.
6. Show Events on Your Website
Create a calendar page where visitors can browse your upcoming events.
- Go to M.E. Calendar > Shortcodes and create or choose a calendar view.
- Copy its shortcode into a WordPress page such as
Calendar, then publish the page. - Review and publish at least one imported draft event.
- Open the calendar page as a visitor. Click the event title and confirm that the single-event page opens and its ticket link goes to PatronManager.
- Add the calendar page to your website navigation.
If an event link returns a 404 page
Go to M.E. Calendar > Settings > Archive Pages and Slugs/Permalink. Check the archive and single-event settings, save them, and test the link again.
Optional Event Improvements
Once the basic sync works, you can tune the import.
Good next improvements for this setup:
- Use custom templates when event descriptions, images, ticket links, or structured fields need to match your theme.
- Map ticketing categories into WordPress event categories when visitors need event filters.
PatronManager can also provide extra fields for custom templates, such as PatronManager event type, PatronManager instance name, PatronManager sale status, PatronManager no-sale message, and other platform-specific fields. Use them when your event pages, filters, or templates need more than the basic title, date, image, location, and ticket link.

Need the import to match your website more closely? Tell me what you want to show on the event page. Jeero can often support custom fields, category mapping, additional data, or platform-specific tweaks once the basic sync works.
Start with the Free Jeero Plugin
The free plan lets you test the full setup with up to 10 upcoming events. That is enough to check the PatronManager connection, review the imported event pages, and decide whether the workflow fits your website.
