How Can You Have Multiple Single or Event View Templates for Different Events

[Lauren]

How can I have/use multiple unique single templates for specific events or categories?

For example, I want to use a unique (different layout, full width with no sidebar) single event template for a conference category/event but everything else a default single template (2 columns, sidebar) or the single-event.php in /tribe-events/single-event.php.

I can’t find this anywhere in the document or search. Let me know. Thanks.

I still need assistance on this.

Hi,

Sorry for the delay on this.

I can help you out.

Since we only have the one template for single-events you would have to use conditional statements on that template to modify the content layout based on what you would like to do.

Here is all of WordPress’s conditionals:

And here is ours:

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

Thanks. So there isn’t a way to create a separate template like single-event-books.php for example to pick up all Books category for example?

Unfortunately, no, but that is an interesting idea and I could see how that would be useful.

Looks like the function I was looking for was tribe_event_in_category().

[Brian]

Ok glad you found that function.
