Map View and Photo View on the same page

[Martino Stenta]

Hi there,
I’m willing to buy your pro version but I need to have an homepage with bot the map view (are the marker customizable?) and the photo view.

Is this possible?

Hello Martino

Unfortunately, you can only use one shortcode on a page at a time.

You can add additional shortcode widgets instead to the page, but I’m afraid none are in map view either.

The markers of map view are set by the event venues.

Is there anything else I can help you with?

Thanks,
Courtney 🙂

Hi Courtney,
thanks for the reply.

Well, the map view is something I need.
Do you think I can fire up a normal wp_query for the events and get the layout I need?

Hello Martino

The map view will display a list of upcoming events below that. Featured Images will display in this view as well. See http://wpshindig.com/events/map/ as an example.

Would you still want to custom code in the photo view layout below that as well?

If so, I’ll check with our developers for resources on that.

Thanks,
Courtney 🙂

Yep,
I’ve seen the upcoming events under the map, it’s fine but I would really prefere to have some “cards-like” layout, as in the photo view. I’m able to query the content if needed. I’m going to hide a lot of thing anyway (filters, search and so on) since i just need the map and the events as stacked cards.

If there is a quick solution it’s way better 🙂

Hi Martino

It looks like the best way for you to achieve this will involve a fair amount of custom coding. You’ll want to check out the Themer’s Guide to create a custom template override.

Unfortunately, this level of customization is beyond the scope of Support / Terms of service.

Just a word of caution before diving in, it does look like you’ll run into a fair amount of CSS styling as well with all this.

If you do work this out, we’d love to know and take a look.

Thanks,
Courtney 🙂
