I love this plugin. One thing I can’t figure out so far: I am getting my event data returned using global $post;
\n\t$all_events = tribe_get_events(
\n\t\tarray(
\n\t\t\t‘eventDisplay’=>’upcoming’,
\n\t\t\t‘posts_per_page’=>10,
\n\t\t\t‘tax_query’=> array(

\n\t\t\t)
\n\t)
\n\t);<\/p>\n

\tforeach($all_events as $post) {
\n\tsetup_postdata($post);
