Include events in main blog loop doesn't work with display-posts-shortcode plugi

[tom wible]

as my site uses a static front page, i am using
https://wordpress.org/plugins/display-posts-shortcode/ in a page to display them.

unfortunately, ‘Include events in main blog loop’ doesn’t work with it…anyone else have this issue?

i’m also asking on d-p-sc forum…

Hi,

Thanks for using our plugins. I can help out here.

The Events will only show on the main page if you are using the main WordPress Loop to get posts. If not that feature does not work.

If the shortcode you are using has the ability to add a custom post type that might work then.

The event custom post type is:

tribe_events

Let me know if you have any follow up questions.

Thanks

by main WordPress Loop you mean

<?php if ( have_posts() ) : while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

correct? i’ll dive into the shortcode…code, thanx:-)

That is a part of the loop coding, yes.

I should say the main WordPress query.

The shortcode is separate from that query so that is why our coding does not work on it.
