PREVIOUS EVENT Feature

[redgizmo]

Hello,
We are trying program EC Pro to display in the calendar view a bar that shows the last previous event. We are not sure how to extract that information. Is there any hook that we can use? What do you recommend?
Please go to URL + /events/ and see at the bottom.
Thank you
Pablo

Pablo,

I took a look at your site and see what you are trying to do and can help you get going in the right direction.

I would recommend using the tribe_get_events() function:

https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/the-events-calendar-template-tags-general-functions/#functiontribe_get_events

If you follow along with the example and change the ‘eventDisplay’ to

'eventDisplay'=>'past'

That will get you past events, then you can modify the query accordingly to get the latest past event.

Let me know if you get stuck somewhere and I can help out, thanks.

Thank you! That solved the problem.

Great, glad it helps, I am going to go ahead and close this ticket, but if you need any other on something else please post a new ticket.

Thanks!
