Can you use it as a template

[Renan]

My employer wants me to create several pages using the same event list template.
It needs to be a template per per category you selected and will reflect the title of each page based on those categories.

I know you can just use the categories link and create a custom menu link but my employer doesn’t want that.
He wants it strictly as a page because first is the url issue, second is only it shows Upcoming Events event the categories is Seminars for example.

Does the PRO version have this feature?

Good evening Renan and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your questions.

Does the PRO version have this feature?

Yes, it does. You can accomplish exactly what you are looking for using our Pro shortcodes: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/pro-widget-shortcodes/

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Hi,

Based on my research today, the shortcodes as a template doesn’t display the same layout as the default list events page.

That’s what I need not a widget looking layout. Is this someone customizable easily?

Hey Renan,

I am sorry to hear this does not accomplish what you are looking for.

Technically speaking our event “pages” are actually not pages.

Some of our users have reported achieving something similar to what you are doing by using the following third-party plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar-shortcode/

Other than that, we are working on including more shortcodes in our upcoming releases that will certainly help in having a built-in solution. Unfortunately, I cannot commit to a release date at this point. But stay tuned!

If the suggested plugin does not work for you, you will have to resort to customization.
You might want to read our Themer’s guide to see how that works.

Simply put, you could technically create a WordPress page template that is 100% customized to your needs.

That being said, just to set expectations, the scope of our support is mostly to get our customers started on the right track and to help them in case of issues. We unfortunately do not provide complete support for customization.

Finally, if this is all a bit outside of your comfort zone, you can always hire one of our recommended customizers to do the customization for you.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.
