Pulling Upcoming Events to Slider in Divi Theme

[planetthrive]

I am using Elegant Themes’ Divi theme and there is a slider on the homepage. I did check the box to include events in the blog loop but they are not showing up in the blog post categories. Do you know what I have to do to include them – what php file do I need to modify and what code do I need to change? Thanks.

Hello..

Let me see if I can help out here.

When you say this:

I did check the box to include events in the blog loop

You mean in the Event settings, correct?

That only works with a standard WordPress loop usually in the index.php file of your theme.

The Slider is most likely a custom loop and would have to be able to add custom post types for it to work. That would be different for each slider our there.

Events also will not show in Blog Categories as the events use their own taxonomy, Event Categories.

Let me know if that helps explain this.

Thanks

Since I haven’t heard back from you here, I’m going to go ahead and close out this thread. Feel free to start a new thread if you have further issues. Thanks! 🙂
