Hi,
Is it possible to add the calendar list view to another page? I have certain categories for events and I would like the filter to be applied and that particular calendar placed on another page of my site.
In my case, this page (http://www.ptworth.com/events/) will have all the events for the organization, but this page (http://www.ptworth.com/sisterfriends/) I want to have only the “sister friends” category appear, but be list view, not the icons from the widget.
Is this possible?
Howdy Terresa,
Good question. In the future we would like to add a shortcode which will allow you to embed the entire List View (and other views) into a page. However, we are not there yet. In the mean time you can use the current list widget short code which will embed a customizable list of events into another page. It will show each event title and link to the event, but it will not include the event descriptions. Would that work for you?
Cheers!

I have already used the shortcode in the page here (http://www.ptworth.com/sisterfriends/), but I was really hoping to have a list view as that will be the bulk of what is on the page. Is there some code that I can insert on that page or a forum you could point me to where someone has a solution that might assist? Thanks.
Brook:
I have to agree with Terresa there has to be a way to embed the full calendar on another page without using the widget. Please let me know if you can point me in the right direction as well.
Howdy guys,
I definitely understand that need. I wish we had a good solution, but we do not at this time. There are a variety of JavaScript issues with embedding the entire list view into another page that require a large bit of work for us to find solutions to before we can make the entire view embeddable.
That said you can modify the list widget/shortcode’s template to include event descriptions beneath the titles. This will modify the list widget everywhere, including the sidebar. Which is a huge part of the reason why I saw we do not have a “good solution”. If you are interested in this route though, first you will need to be familiar with WP Theming and our Themer’s Guide if you are not already. From there, you would want to modify /events-calendar-pro/src/views/pro/widgets/modules/single-event.php to add and style the description.
I wish I had better news. We are working on a solution, and currently it is set to be ready in version 4.2 of the plugin. But, in the interest of not setting expectations too high, keep in mind that in reality a lot can change between now and version 4.2. There is a possibility that it will not be quite ready by the time 4.2 ships, and will thus come after that.
Please let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers!

Is there a way to have the picture thumbnail form the event on the widget instead of the date icon that is placed there? I don’t necessarily need the full description on there, but a picture would be great…
Howdy Terresa,
That would certainly be possible. We even have a tutorial that walks you through adding those images to the widgets (click here). Is that what you are looking for?

Excellent! You are very welcome. Let me know if you have any questions along the way while using that tutorial. Cheers!
