Adding additional content to the designated calendar page

[Betsy Rippentrop]

I’m looking to add additional content to the .com/events page with the calendar on it. There should be an easier way on WordPress rather than just coding! I want to add some images and buttons underneath the calendar with Visual Composer.

Hey Betsy,

Thanks for reaching out.

I’m happy to help here. I should note that we do not make Visual Composer, nor do we have any special integrations with it, so for any question along the lines of, “how do I do this with Visual Composer?” please direct those questions to the Visual Composer support team.

As for our own code though, there are two ways to add content to the main events view.

1. First is to use the “Add HTML before content” and “Add HTML after content” options in Events → Settings → Display in your site’s wp-admin.

2. Next is to use the steps outlined on this guide → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

☝️ If you use those steps, you can make a theme template version of this The Events Calendar file:

the-events-calendar/src/views/default-template.php

You can then customize that template however you see fit, and add content on the main events page, etc.
