How do I put an upcoming events list on my homepage in a text or code area?

[Ellen Bassett]

I would like to put something like the attached screenshot on the homepage of a website I am working on. I can’t make this area a widget. Is it still possible to do a similar calendar feed using a text block or a script block? Thanks! https://cloudup.com/cSC9YHW0Fhx

Hey @gardenclubcouncil,

You mention not being able to make that area a widget; but are you certain of this? You can register new widget areas in your theme relatively easily, as described in the WordPress Codex here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Widgetizing_Themes

If that’s not something you’re interested in, then unfortunately the only real alternative would be to use the tribe_get_events() function. You can learn about that and how to use it here → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/using-tribe_get_events/

I hope that helps; we’re not able to help with custom code here, but let me know if you have any further questions, comments, concerns, etc.

Sincerely,
George

George – thank you for your assistance and I am afraid to change the code. I tried the “get events” but that did not seem to work. Thank you for your help.

I’m sorry it didn’t help that much, @gardenclubcouncil 🙁 If you need the customizations regardless and cannot implement them yourself, your best bet is to hire some professional assistance. We have a list of highly-rated developers here that might be helpful if you’re looking for people to hire → http://m.tri.be/18k1

Best of luck with your custom site development!
