Different events on different subpages

    Hi,

    I am new to Events Manager and I was wondering if you can do the following with it:
    On one subpage of my web, I would like to have a list of “Events”. On another subpage of my web, I would like to have a calendar of “Trainings”.

    Currently, I installed the plugin and in the settings, I set that the page for displaying the list of “Events” will be a page called “Events”. So how do I now distinguish between “events” and “trainings” and create a new page so that each can have a page of their own. (They can share those subpages created automatically by the plugin, such as Locations, etc.)

    I thought I could do it via tags (event and training tag) and then for the “Trainings” simply use a shortcode filtering this tag, but I cannot find in the documentation how to filter out tags.

    Is this possible or can one web only have one subpage with one list/calendar.

  • Hi @puk789

    I am not from support but have you tried using categories and then the shortcode
    [events_calendar long_events=1 full=1 country=”US” category=”1,2,3,4″ year=”2012″ month=”2″] (it will probably work with the list shortcode as well).

    Cheers Nick

    Hi @findingitontheway,

    thanks for the reply, that worked smoothly. However, since they’re just a different category, they still share the same permalink structure. Which looks weird as they are on different subpages. Currently, when I open any of “Events”, the permalink is as follows: “…/events/eventName”. When I open any of the “Trainings”, the permalink is the same: “…/events/trainingName”. I would like to have “…/training/trainingName” for the latter. Is it possible to somehow change this? Obviously not in the settings as they only work with one subpage. Maybe through shortcode? But couldn’t find anything.
    Or is there anything else apart from category I could use to filter these two on two different subpages, creating two different permalink structures?

    Also, since I used a shortcode for the “Events” page too, how do I now get rid of the event list initially created by the plugin? In the Page settings, I even deleted the events value which I had set originally. However, that original event unfiltered list (containing also “Trainings”) hasn’t been replaced. How can I only keep the list generated by the shortcode?

    Thanks a lot!

    I have now managed to remove the original event list but this has messed up some of the pages, for example My Bookings page throws “Not Found” error. This message has also been shown in the admin panel:

    Uh Oh! For some reason WordPress could not create an events page for you (or you just deleted it). Not to worry though, all you have to do is create an empty page, name it whatever you want, and select it as your events page in your settings page. Sorry for the extra step! If you know what you are doing, you may have done this on purpose, if so ignore this message

    another way is to use my-bookings shortcode [my_bookings] in your wp page or post
