Displaying Other Recurring Events

    I am trying to enhance recurring events.

    Sometimes I would rather display a master recurring event rather than a single instance or on a single instance, I want to add the next few recurrences.

    I could use the [events_list] shortcode and specify recurrence=recurring_event_id. But, I don’t see where I have a placeholder that tells me what the parent recurring event is.

    Basically, I’m looking for a #_RECURRENCENEXTEVENTS that works like #_LOCATIONNEXTEVENTS does for locations.

  • Hello,

    Are you using Events Manager Pro? If yes, you could submit your ticket at and have priority access to Support. https://eventsmanagerpro.com/support/

    Regarding the issue, I’m confused with what you mean showing the Master Recurring event? When you create a recurring event, It basically just create multiple events and the Master is used to configure it.

    Are you perhaps referring on showing the Recurrence of a specific recurring event?

    I’m not using pro since I don’t need the booking features.

    So I’ve followed directions found in this forum and made recurring events public. That way I can show my user an event that describes the recurrence instead of an individual day of the recurrence. I’ve also created a custom placeholder to return the recurrence pattern of a recurring event.
    Since my post this morning, I’ve figured out how to display the individual recurrences when I’m looking at the master recurring event.

    You can see a sample recurring event display here: https://annarborwithkids.com/events-recurring/stroller-strides-2/

    See how it displays upcoming recurrences? I’m doing that with a shortcode:
    [events_list recurrence=”#_EVENTID” limit=”10″][/events_list]
    Since I’m in the recurring event template, this works.

    Here’s a display of a single instance of the event.

    On the individual event, I want to add a link to the master recurring event & other upcoming instances. I know the event_id for the master recurring event is stored in the database since I can search for it using the recurrence search parameter. But there doesn’t seem to be a placeholder to access it.

    at the moment this is not yet possible or available by default

    shortcode [events_list recurrence=”X”] where X is the recurring template under Events > Recurring Events id and display all the single recurrences of this X recurring template
