Hey blogjunkie,

You can use this sample code to get you started: https://gist.github.com/jo-snips/5112025

You’ll need to build in pagination and customize other things yourself though.

I hope that helps!

Hi Gordon,

If you wanted to embed the calendar this way in a given page, you would want to put the code in your theme’s page.php template file and typically along with a page conditional (since page.php is used for all pages) like so:

if(is_page('your-page-slug') {
include(‘wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/gridview.php’);
}

Does that help?

Hi Sean,

Do you mean that when you are in an event category, the query is not honoring only showing events in the feed for that category? You probably need to modify the query to check if you are on a taxonomy archive (http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/is_tax) and then pass in an argument for that particular tax.

No problem Jeff, let us know if you need anything else.

Hi Sean,

It would be helpful to get some examples of code you’re working with. You can share code here via http://snippi.com/

tribe_get_events() and query_posts() both kind of do the same thing – they query for posts – so I don’t think you’d really want to use them together. Typically if you need to modify a query, you want to use pre_get_posts() (http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/pre_get_posts)

Does that help?

Hi Jeff,

You do need to first run a query to return the records you are looking for and then you can access all the information for those records. get_posts() will do it but WP_Query is generally a better way: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query

So, you’re pretty much doing it the way you should but you may want to use WP_Query instead.

I hope that helps,
Jonah

Hi Jeffrey, I’m going to move this to the Community Events forum where someone will help you there. Stay tuned.

Hi Christina,

You can put this code in your themes functions.php file:

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'exclude_events_category' );
function exclude_events_category( $query ) {

if ( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'upcoming' || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'past' && $query->query_vars['post_type'] == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && !is_tax(TribeEvents::TAXONOMY) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {
$query->set( 'tax_query', array(
array(
'taxonomy' => TribeEvents::TAXONOMY,
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array('2012'),
'operator' => 'NOT IN'
)
)
);
}

return $query;

… just change the ‘2012’ in terms to whatever the slug of the category you want to exclude is.

That should do it!

Hi Jeff,

Just do a search for CSS sprites, there’s tons of articles out there on it. Here’s a pretty good one: http://css-tricks.com/css-sprites/

I hope that helps!

Great Jon, I’m going to close this out but if you need anything else, please let us know.

Thanks,

Hi Mike, that sounds great. This would actually be a really helpful modification for others I’m sure. Unfortunately we just don’t have the resources right now to write something up on it. If you come up with anything, it’d be great to see it shared!

Thanks,
Jonah
