How to add a search bar to the event list in the grid view

Unfortunately, there’s currently no way to add a search bar to the events_list shortcode. The only way to get an event grid with a search bar is on the main events page with the default view for the Events page to be “grid”.

OK, that’s strange, even though it seems to work, it doesn’t work. ??

But thanks!

Can you put a filter in front of it so that you can display individual months? That would probably be the last option for me.

You can use [events_list_grouped mode=”monthly”] to display events grouped by month. This is in list format (not grid format). You can use the scope parameter to specify the date range. You can also create your own event scope: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/tutorials/create-your-own-event-scope/

Thanks – I’ll take a look, but I need that grid…

I came up with a solution to this problem using the event_search_form shortcode: https://www.ads-software.com/support/topic/search-not-working-with-events_list/#post-18140767

[event_search_form view="grid" pagination=1]

It requires overriding the events_search.php template.
