Embedding on a page?

[Nick]

Hey guys – is there a way to embed a list of events or a particular category on a page or a post? (as opposed to on a sidebar)

With a little customization you could reuse the widgets within a page/post or else you could build a custom event query using tribe_get_events() … I’m afraid we have to leave customizations like this to you though. Have fun!

Interesting…. can you give me a clue how that’s done? Like the most generic possible example?
ie [Display last 10 items with Date and Title from X category]
I just don’t have a clue how to code that.

[Barry]

Definitely – here’s some code to get you started, you’ll probably need to play with it and tweak it slightly to get exactly what you want, but it should provide a starting point 🙂

Marvelous, thanks a lot. Last question – very newbie here – wordpress is going to strip that if I paste it in a page or post, no? Is there some trick I don’t know of to run php code in a post? Or will this only work if I create a new page *template* then use that?

[Barry]

That’s right – you’d need to do this at code-level – whether in a template or somewhere else, rather than pasting it into the post editor.
