How to add and Events listing to the homepage

[KMS]

Hi,
We are trying to show the events on the homepage. I have tried adding the code from the photo.php (We have the Pro version which allows the photo option) to the child template in page.php with an if condition to check for homepage, but I’m running into errors.

Basically, I’m looking for the easiest/quickest way to make the main section of the homepage display the events information like this page.
http://72.52.172.52/~garretcol/events/

Here is the current homepage:
http://72.52.172.52/~garretcol/

Thanks,
BP

Hi BP and thanks for reaching out!

Right now, we unfortunately do not have a way to embed the Photo View of the calendar on any page with a shortcode (though we do have other shortcodes for embedding the calendar widgets).

One way of embedding events on the homepage might be to use the Event Rocket plugin. The only issue here is that I do not believe it embeds Photo View specifically.

Another route would be to create your own query of events in the homepage template. We have a tutorial on using the tribe_get_events() function that would help get you started on that route. Note that you would need to make sure the styles and scripts for Photo View are enqueued for that page so the Photo View styling could be used.

Sorry I don’t have more of a concrete solution for you here, but I do hope this at least helps get you started in the right direction!
