Need add a buttonn in list events

[Jose A. Rodriguez]

Hello

In the new site that we are creating for this website, we are using Avada Theme and Even Calendar, but

We want to add a custom button with and url in the event list.

We read that the pro version admit add new fields, but let it add in the listing view? or is necesary to customization the code?

Thanks.

Hi Jose,

Great question! Events Calendar PRO does indeed have a feature for custom event fields.

You could use those to create a button and then customize the List View template to display the buttons. Otherwise, the links would only display in the event details on the event post.

Another way to go about it is to use the Event Website URL field that already comes with The Events Calendar. That would allow you to fetch the URL and still customize the List View template to display it using tribe_get_event_website_url() to fetch the URL.

And yet one more way to do it without needing to purchase Events Calendar PRO is to use Advanced Custom Fields instead.

Note that in all three options, you will need to customize the List View template in order to display a button there. Please refer to our<span style=”text-decoration: underline;”> </span>Themer’s Guide for detailed instructions on how to customize the plugin templates.

Cheers!

Thanks,
and we need a bit more help.

Extra information.
We need the Website URL too, then we have only 2 posibilities. At less we think .

Other question,

We want to see the button in the List View template, and in the View of the event too.

Which of the three possibilities need less customization?

Thanks.

Hi Jose.

I would personally go with the Advanced Custom Fields route, but all the options will require you to customize the plugin’s List View template in order to display the field content as a button.
