How to add multiple “performers” to an event?

1. Are you using any plugin for adding the event listing?
2. Do you have any specific schema in mind that you want to use?
3. if you are okay with adding custom code, here’s an example that will show you to add multiple performers for you, see: https://pastebin.com/ivBEZ0ra and you can run that code with https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool
4. Can you explain the question regarding “Title field for the Speaker post type”?

Hope that helps, feel free to revert back with more Q’s

Hi @magazine3, thanks for your quick reply and the example you provide.

1. No, we are not using a plug for the events, they are just a custom post type.
2. The event is a business event and there is a BusinessEvent schema option that I think is most suitable (https://schema.org/BusinessEvent). I want to add each speaker for the event as a Performer.
3. I wanted to avoid custom code ideally as I will need the client to update the website himself when the event changes (new speakers added, price changes etc), so would rather avoid him needing to touch code if possible.
4. The speakers go in as custom post types and the title is used for their name, like this: https://i.imgur.com/0qs3E2W.png. It looks like I can select Title when I modify the schema output, but the title I selected in this screenshot was not for the Speakers posts. https://i.imgur.com/Z0BwNyy.png

1. okay,
2. Thank you for explaining in the details, I have created a ticket for BusinessEvent Support and the Performer option support at: https://github.com/ahmedkaludi/schema-and-structured-data-for-wp/issues/419 & https://github.com/ahmedkaludi/schema-and-structured-data-for-wp/issues/418
3. I understand, but I am rather talking about an option which is available after the post editor, see this screenshot: https://monosnap.com/file/IijPvWPVwjanRJHywwJg3PXm1KXHqu – with that option, you can add some extra schema on the specific site.
4. That option is to show the data from existing custom feilds. I don’t think that would be necessary for you.

In my opinion, best option for you to be add as I showed in the 3rd answer. Once the above two Github tickets are done, then we you would be able to do this easily with just couple of clicks.

Hope that helps.

Hi @magazine3,

Thanks for your reply and creating the Github requests, that all makes sense and is very helpful.

Do you have a suggestion for how to handle ticket prices if there is more than one type of ticket available for a single event? Would we need to add multiple offers? The schema.org website has an example with a AggregateOffer with a lowPrice and a highPrice like this: https://pastebin.com/DVgGg1rj

We don’t have this currently, but I have raised a ticket for this as well: https://github.com/ahmedkaludi/schema-and-structured-data-for-wp/issues/431

We will be adding this very soon.
