Front Page display of events

[lancerasmussen]

Is there a snippet of code for the functions.php to accomplish the following for the front page:

Show specific categories in the order of categories I provide and limit any reoccurring events to show the first one.

The reason is that I want to only show certain categories on the front page and I have some categories that I want to be shown before others.

Hi,

Thanks for using our plugins. We do not have coding to display events on the front page as you describe.

We have the Mini Calendar Widget and the Event List Widget that can do that but need a widget area to work.

The mini calendar also has a shortcode to display events by category:

In the next release we will have a shortcode for the Event List as well.

There is another option that works right now.

The Event Rocket Plugin is an unofficial plugin maintained by some of our developers that has shortcodes in it to display event lists by categories:

Event Rocket

Let me know if that will work for you.

Thanks

Since I haven’t heard back from you here, I’m going to go ahead and close out this thread. Feel free to start a new thread if you have further issues. Thanks! 🙂
