Getting featured query with php code and mysql query

You know that you can use shortcodes in php too, no? So if it is for wordpress, create the shortcode with the format of your liking, and then call do_shortcode(…) in your php. WordPress has many docs on that.

Thanks Franky, I do know that I can use shortcodes in php with do_shortcode, but I still don’t know how I would get the featured image of an event using that. Can you explain?

Oh, I think I get it. Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it out.

If anyone else is interested in this, I did this like this:

echo do_shortcode( '[eme_event id="'.$event_id.'" template_id="1" ]' );

And made the format of template ID of 1:

#_EVENTIMAGETHUMB{medium}

Thanks for sharing. You could do it a bit more simple too:

echo do_shortcode( "[eme_event id=$event_id template_id=1]" );

but your version works too ??
