different Backroundpicture for each event

There is no setting in the EME settings pages for background images.
Per event you can set a featured image.

To add to this Theodor I’ve not been able to extract the featured image for use in the template – though if you find a way please let me know.

At the moment individual events inherit the featured image from the ‘template page’.

Just using #_EVENTIMAGE or a related placeholder should work fine, see:

@martin Oxby
I you find out how we can do this let me now.
I am not able by my self to do this, I only a user, not a Dev…sorry…

@franky oftopic
Any news about xili language integration?

Best Theo

@franky – sorry I was referring to being able to draw #_EVENTIMAGE into a theme’s template file – e.g. header.php.

Maybe a future development idea would be to add shortcodes for all these elements so that they can be pulled into theme files?

@Theo- sure thing!

@theodor:
EME supports the “?lang” parameter, so if xili can indicate in any way what language is being used (either via “?lang=…” or a xili constant) I can use that, also I’d need to know the function call I use to ask for xili-translations (“xili-language” maybe?) of dynamic content (if xili can have multiple languages in 1 text-box, like qtranslate can). If not and xili uses different posts per language, then it’s a bit more difficult.

@martin Oxby glad to here from you

@franky I wrote to the Devs of xili….

since 2009, the function xili_curlang() return the slug of current language. With other options (see sources) more value can be returned…

@michel, thank you for jump in this threat…

@franky, will this help for the integration what Michel wrote?
