Excerpt in event list

  • Hi folks,

    I like Your plugin. Thank You.
    My problem: Is it possible to show not only Date and title of the posts but also an excerpt (if exists)?
    Thank You

    Hi,

    Thanks for using this plugin, I’m glad you like it!

    If you want to add the post excerpt to the Widget, or modify the widget in some way:

    You could create a functionality plugin with your own variant of the widget.

    The widget code is here: https://github.com/ms-studio/minimalistic-event-manager/blob/master/widgets/event-list.php

    You would need only two little tweaks:

    – After line 245, add a value to the array: "excerpt" => get_the_excerpt()
    – After line 336, add the code that will output the excerpt. Something like this:

    <?php echo $mem_event_list[$key]["excerpt"]; ?>

    I hope this helps!

    Hi Manuel,
    Thank you.
    The additions in the code didn’t help. Excerpt is not displayed. Maybe I have to activate it anywhere? In the widget I didn’t find a possibility.

    I have another problem: The mem widget in the sidebar should not display the excerpts but in a special page named “event” I want to display them. If in the widget had an activation field for excerpt, this could be a solution.
    Is there any possibility?

    Thank You
