My project requires the use of a custom taxonomy to further filter events. Let’s call this taxonomy ‘department’.
\nSo far I have created a template file in my theme name taxonomy-department.php pasted in the following<\/p>\n
EDIT: The forum failed me. It is not allowing me to post the code. Here’s a version with the php tags stripped
\ntribe_events_before_html();
\ntribe_get_view(‘map’);
\ntribe_events_after_html();<\/p>\n
To get all the right scripts and styles enqueued I hooked into the following filters making sure they return true if `is_tax(‘department’)`
\n`tribe_query_is_event_query`
\n`tribe-events-bar-should-show`<\/p>\n
There is still a bit more to do as the view filters don’t link to this custom taxonomy, and the pagination doesn’t work but I have an even weirder problem. This setup is not using the custom template I have set up in my theme in `tribe-events\/pro\/map.php`.<\/p>\n
Another thing I’ve noticed is that some of the CSS styles aren’t applied as the content is not wrapped in #tribe-events-content-wrapper, but I have yet to hunt the code for an appropriate filter to make the `tribe_events_before_template` and `tribe_events_after_template` actions fire.<\/p>\n
What steps are required to use a custom taxonomy with your templates and are they outline anywhere? Do you suggest any best practices for using custom taxonomies with the tribe_events post type? Would custom fields make my life easier? What would be the process there?
\nI would prefer not to use custom fields as I’d like pretty permalinks.<\/p>\n
Thanks for your time<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-70909","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
