Get Event ID on Single Event Page

[Laura Yeffeth]

How do I retrieve the event ID for a single event outside the loop.

Hi. Where are you wanting to display it and how are you wanting to display it?

For example, are you wanting to get an event’s ID from its URL or from its post title or something else?

[Laura Yeffeth]

From the URL would be fine. I need to add something to the header for a specific event, so I’m looking for a conditional statement I can use to target the event.

However you choose to get it, the Event ID is just the WordPress Post ID.

url_to_postid() or a similar function might be helpful to you.

Once you get a Post ID, though, you should run it through tribe_is_event() to verify the Post ID is an Event ID.

I hope that helps.
