Add additional sections to single event page

[John]

Greetings,

I have been using the Advanced Custom Fields plugin in order to create additional fields for the ‘Tribe Events’ posts, and have been able to get these fields to show up in the New Event creation page. However, now I’m try to figure out what page I need to edit in order to have these new fields display. I’m assuming I can create some if/else statement to have my new fields display; but I don’t know if they will display with the gray section boxes. Is it possible to create additional sections?

Thanks for any feedback

Here is an image of what I’m trying to achieve.

Hi there, John! Welcome back to the forums.

Good question. You’ll want to create an override of the single-event.php template and modify it to include your ACF fields where you would like them to display.

To do that:

• Create a copy of the single-event.php file. It’s located at /plugins/the-events-calendar/views/single-event.php
• Create a folder in your theme directory called tribe-events
• Drop your copied single-event.php file in that folder

Now that the template is in your theme, you can modify it to suit your needs. In this case, here is ACF’s documentation for using custom fields: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/code-examples/

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
