Hey Yohanan,

Our plugins don’t currently have any specific out-of-the-box integrations with any “slider” plugins, so what you’re trying to do specifically may not be possible without custom coding.

To be clear, are you referring to the “[tribe_featured_venue]” shortcode? If so, how specifically are you envisioning this integration with a slider plugin?

Thanks,
George

Hello George,
Thank you for your answer.

I’m currently using Slider Revolution plugin, there I can pike the event from The event calendar pro, I found the shortcode for the event title and content but the venue and date are missing.

There is an option using meta data or with the Essential Grid plugin?

Thanks for this screenshot, Yohanan! Those “shortcodes” like {{title}} and {{content}} are not something our plugins make, so for assistance with those shortcodes and how to use them, your best course of action is to contact the plugin or theme developer who made the software.

Our plugins have no special integration with this software. There is no {{venue}} code that our plugins create, for example.

One thing that might be useful for your needs is using the event post meta. Now, you cannot access things like the Venue Name from event post meta. 🙁 But you can access some stuff like the Event URL. So, something like this might work with those shortcodes in your screenshot:

{{meta:_EventURL}}

↑ This “_EventURL” meta tag refers to the Event URL meta on events. You can see all available event meta tags here → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/wordpress-post-meta-data/

I hope this helps!

Cheers,
George

Hello George,
Thank you for your answer.
Unfortunately this meta for the event url is unnecessarily.

Hope to see in your next release meta for the venue.

Yohanan 🙂

Hey Yohanan,

Thanks for your reply. While we don’t have any further support for this at this time, I do have some good news: we have heard from a number of folks requesting support for Revolution Slider and our calendar plugins, and so hopefully in the next couple of months we will introduce better support for Revolution Support.

I am sorry that I do not have any specific time estimate for when this support will arrive—it may take a significant amount of time to arrive. I can assure you, however, that this thread will be updated when those features are published.

If you don’t see this thread updated, then there is no news—but if you see an update, it means the features are live! 😀

I will close this thread for now. If you have any other questions, comments, concerns, etc., open a new thread any time!

Cheers,
George

Hi. I just wanted to let you know that we published a how-to for Slider Revolution and Essential Grid: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/integrating-events-calendar-slider-revolution-essential-grid/

We hope you find it useful! If you have follow-up questions about it, please create a new thread.

Thanks and have a great rest of your week!
