basic customization in order to display venue and/or city in list view

[Felix]

Dear Customer Support,

on my dev site I am preparing to customize the standard list view by overriding the template single-event.php (list):

Now it shows the following information:
<!– Schedule & Recurrence Details –>
<!– Event Title –>
(modified with a link to the organizer:
<?php echo( tribe_get_organizer_link() ); ?>

Below that information and above the <!– Event Image –>
I would like to display information about the venue and/or city

It is existing information that is displayed in the single event view.

How can I refer to it in the single-event.php (list) file and display it?

Any help from your team is highly appreciated.

I am looking forward to hear back from you.

Felix

Hey Felix,

Looks like you’re making some pretty cool customizations! I’d recommend trying the following code where you wanted to insert the venue details.  As always, back up your files before modifying, just in case! 🙂

<?php echo( tribe_get_venue_details() ); ?>

Please let me know how it goes!

Best,

Shelby 🙂

Hi Shelby,

all my apologies for my non-existing php knowledge…

Thank you for your prompt reply, your positive feedback and your suggestion.

I tried to add the code snippet that you suggested.

See as well line 63/64:
<?php echo( tribe_get_venue_details() ); ?>

It shows as:
http://garage.freieszene.de/events/

Since in line 17 $venue_details are defined as an array
–> $venue_details = array();
Simply the word “array” is displayed.

Do you know how I could achieve to simply display the actual venue details and NOT the word “array”?

I am looking forward to your answer.

Best regards,

Felix

Hey there Felix,

You’ll need to pass variables through your array in order to print the information related to the variables. 🙂 If you don’t have much PHP knowledge, I’d suggest hiring a freelancer. We have a list of suggestions for finding a freelancer and a list of potential freelancers here.

Unfortunately, we don’t support PHP customizations like this one on these forums. These forums are intended to troubleshoot issues and field bug reports with our plugins as configured with the latest version of WordPress, WordPress default themes, and our suite of plugins with their out of the box features.

Please let me know if there’s anything along those lines that I can help you with!

Best,

Shelby 🙂

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
