Individual page template to use Event Listing view

[Michael]

Hi there,

This may be documented somewhere I’m not seeing, so my apologies if so. We are trying to create another unique page template that shows the event listing. I am concerned mostly with how the pagination (e.g. Previous Events, Next Events) might work on this page. Is it possible to create a brand new, unique page template that shows the event listing and have the pagination work and still use this template? Or would the pagination link to the main site, e.g. DOMAIN.COM/events/past/?

Our site url is http://www.nationalharbor.com, with the events on http://nationalharbor.com/events.

Hi Michael,

If you setup a page with a custom query using tribe_get_events() or WP_Query pagination should be completely in your control. WP_Query might work a little bit better for something like this though.

Does that answer your questions?

Hi Jonah! Thanks for the quick reply.

Can you give me a code sample of how to load in using WP_Query? I’m just curious how you would set it up. If you don’t mind, it would help a ton––and I greatly appreciate it!

Hi Michael,

Sure thing. Here’s a gist with a custom query using some different options: https://gist.github.com/jo-snips/5112025 – feel free to modify or remove whatever you don’t need. For reference on what else you can do with the query, I suggest taking a look at the WP_Query doco: https://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

I hope that helps!
