Hi Michele,

Thanks so much for reaching out!

Just to let you know, we are limited by our Support Policy in how much we can help with customizations, but I will try to point you in the right direction.

Hi Michele,

I’m not too familiar with Contact Form 7, so I’m not entirely sure I understand your questions.  However, when you create a form with Contact Form 7 they provide a shortcode for adding that form to a page. You can add the form to your events within the WYSIWYG when editing your events.

If you would like to automatically add this to all events, you can follow the themer’s guide to add the single-event.php file into your theme and include a “do_shortcode(‘[your form shortcode]’);” directly within the template file.

Event’s are WordPress Custom Post Types so anything like get_the_title() will work for an event.

The date of the event is stored as a custom field so you can use WordPress functions to get that ( get_post_meta() ).

Unfortunately, I can’t really provide any further support for a third-party plugin.  I hope this helps to get you started!

 

Thanks,

Jaime
