Show all occurrences by event id

[Rob]

Hello.
Users register for a recurring event. I’m storing the ID of that event as user meta. On their ‘My Account’ page that we built, we want to show them all the dates that their event is on (ie each occurrence).

I dug through the pastebins here: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/customize-output-of-recurring-events-list-titledesc-once-all-dates-under-that/ but got a little lost.

For ease of use, we are wrapping this in a custom shortcode [my_schedule]. This gives us the ID of the event in the recurrence:

global $current_user;
get_currentuserinfo();
$userid = $current_user->ID;
$eventid = get_field('101_event_id', $userid);

How do we display the future dates of each occurrence?

Thanks

Hey Rob,

Thanks for reaching out to us!

I’ll have to do some research but I believe the best way to approach this would be to store the event slug rather than the ID. Currently I don’t believe we have an option for getting all instances of a recurring event from the main event ID. However, all instances of a recurring event are stored with the same title so if you use a “tribe_get_events” query and targeted the title, that may be the best option for getting the recurrences of the event.

Let me know if this helps.

Thanks!

Thanks!
I’m not opposed to using the slug. Let me run some tests and see how that works for us.

Awesome! Let me know how it turns out.
