    HI guys, we are a web design school with 3 types of courses: group, private and workshops. We will also do events from time to time also.

    So we created a custom post type / taxonomy for our courses, on there will be a list of the course dates and we are hoping these dates will come from Event Calendar.

    Issue is, these events will have their own pages thus doubling up the information of the courses. Is there a way to send users to the course page instead of the event listing page when they click on a date?

    Thanks,

    Carl –

    Hey there, Carl! Thanks for getting in touch and welcome to the forums. By the way, I love how the site is coming along. 🙂

    Good question. There isn’t a way to redirect event post URLs to another post type URL right out of the box. However, you may want to check out a plugin like Redirection to handle those, or perhaps something like Posts 2 Posts can help build a relationship between the two post types.

    I do want to point out that I haven’t personally tested these options with the calendar and can’t vouch for their effectiveness or compatibility, but think they may be worth checking out to get what you’re looking for.

    Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.

    Cheers!

    I have to admit defeat on this. Re-direction is not a elegant solution so we will just go with custom post types and use a custom field plugin for the event times instead sorry.

    Thanks for following up, Carl. Sorry there isn’t a more elegant solution here, but I’m glad that something will work out here.

    Please feel free to start a new thread if anything else pops up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂
