Hi,<\/p>\n
This will be our third Event Calendar Pro Installation and all have had some reasonable overhead for customisation – which is why we enjoy your systems as it is quite flexible… This one I think is going to push the boundaries a little so I thought I would ask you guys if what I want to do is possible. We want to use the system for displaying the following:
\n1. Event Listing Page [excluding exhibitions] (unique listing page with search\/filter) – will be similar to our last one you can view here: http:\/\/treasureships.com.au\/agsa\/all-events\/
\n2. Event Details Page [excluding exhibitions] – will be similar to our last one you can view here: http:\/\/treasureships.com.au\/agsa\/event\/the-navigators-studio\/2015-08-14\/
\n3. Exhibition Listing Page: These are similar to other events, however this page will be in a totally different style\/design to Event Listing Page and will not have search\/filter and will only list Exhibition Events
\n4. Exhibition Details Page: This is similar to event details page, however this page will be in a totally different style\/design to Event Details Page
\n5. Artist Listing Page<\/p>\n
What we are thinking about doing is using events to enter Events and Exhibitions<\/strong>. Then we just need some sort of filter to prevent Exhibitions <\/strong>appearing from any searches and listings or categories on the Event Listing Page<\/strong> (#1 above). The Exhibition Listing page<\/strong> (#3) we think will be easy enough as it will be a unique template we create that just works like a WordPress template but with the loop to only display Exhibitions.<\/p>\n Does all that make sense so far?<\/p>\n If so, then my only question thus far is what your recommendation for defining what an Exhibition is? <\/strong> ——————————————————————————- ——————————————————————————–<\/p>\n And last thing we want to do is list Venues in their own template – if there’s nothing wrong with the above then I assume this is fine too \ud83d\ude42 >> this would be number 6 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n —————————————————————————————<\/p>\n Can you please answer my questions above and let me know your thoughts. It all makes sense to me and doesn’t sound like it will be too much trouble but you’ll know best \ud83d\ude42 It would be good to keep all this functionality within the Events Manger Pro system, rather then going out to a custom wordpress plugin to deal with Artists and Exhibitions, which is the other complete alternative. NOTE: whilst we don’t have to do much, if any cross-linking between events\/venues and artists\/exhibitions, if we use Event system for all of them it will give us the opportunity for that if we want to….<\/p>\n Thanks<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-996000","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\n
\nI assume we could just use a top level even category, or a tag, or add our own custom filed checkbox. If it’s a category then we just need to consider if it’s going to be possible to use that to filter it from visibility on event listing page and hide the category from category filters, etc.<\/p>\n
\nThe second Part that I think is more straight forward is Artists. We were thinking of using the built-in Organizer system to enter and display artists. The only modifications I can see it needs is that we will need to be able to add an image to an Organizer when setting them up and we will need to be able to replace the label “Organizer” on the front end for artist, wherever it is used. Will adding an image and hiding the labels for artists (organizers) be possible without affecting core? Following that we need to do something similar that we did for Exhibitions in that artists need their own customised listing page<\/p>\n
