get_the_id() inside of grid.php

[Jon Nixon]

Hi All,

I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get the current event id inside of grid.php. I’m trying to pass the category slug as a class like so:

$terms = get_the_terms(get_the_ID(), 'tribe_events_cat');

echo 'terms = ' . $terms;
			
			?>
				<td class="<?php 
 		$count = count($terms);
 		if ( $count > 0 ){
 		  
 		    foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
 		      echo $term->slug;

 		    }

However, get_the_id(), $post->ID, etc returns nothing inside of this file. How do I get the post/event ID?

Hello,

Thanks for using our plugin. I can help you out here.

What file exactly are you trying to get the id on? We have a bunch of files with grid in the name.

Is it this one from the month view:

the-events-calendar/views/month/loop-grid.php

Let me know and I can try to help out.

Thanks

Hi Brian,

I’m trying to apply the categories to my local grid.php file:

theme > tribe-events > widgets > mini-calendar > grid.php

Ok thanks for the information.

Since that is not a single event template there is no ID to get there for an event to show categories. It would most likely just get the page id the widget is on.

That should be in this directory of your theme for the file as well:

theme > tribe-events > pro > widgets > mini-calendar > grid.php

To add categories you would want to look at using the single-event file in the widgets folder of pro:

events-calendar-pro\views\pro\widgets\modules\single-event.php
