How to use hooks to get event title and date?

[David Dolenc]

I would like to add the option to sign-up for the events by providing the “sign up” button on the single event page that will open a Gravity form. I know how to dynamically populate a Gravity form using hooks, but could not find a hook that would let me get the basic event data (e.g., title, date…) from the Events Calendar. Could you please provide a short example of a hook use that extracts event name or date?

You can use WordPress’s get_post() function to retrieve the event’s post object and retrieve the title as you would for any other page or post – to get the event start date you might use our tribe_get_start_date() function (both of these accept the post ID as a parameter).

Hope that helps!
