Display message if no event in tag

[Erin Slater]

I created links to tags I have setup. However, since the site is new, some of the tags do not have any events. Therefore, I would like the “no events found” message to appear when the user visits a tag page with no events.

Here is an example of a tag with no events: http://anz.isagenixevents.com/tag/vic

You can see how the page is blank.

Thanks,

Hi Brendan,

Thanks for reaching out. Let me explain one thing before we jump into the actual solution of your issue: Events tags are regular WordPress tags. That being said we can move on.

Create a ‘tag.php’ file in your theme (you can copy ‘archive.php’ is it exists). The loop structure should look like this:


<?php
if ( have_posts() ) :
/* there are posts for this tag */
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
/* print post */
endwhile;
else :
/* there are no posts for this tag */
echo 'No posts found for this tag';
endif;
?>


Please try this on you end and let me know if it works,
Best,
Nico

Hi Nico,

I see. After looking again I realized that the tags were part of wordpress and not hooked into your plugin. Therefore, in order to keep a clean look, I decided to go with Event Categories which work a lot better for what I was trying to accomplish.

Thanks,
Brendan

That’s great Brendan, glad you could solve it that way!

I’m going to close this topic – but please don’t hesitate to create new topics if you need help with anything else.

Best,
Nico
