Multiple Calendars on the same page

    Hi,

    I’m a touring musician and I currently have your Gigpress plugin installed on my site to show upcoming tour dates.

    It works perfectly well, but it has some limitations. What I would like to do is to be able to show three different calendars, depending on the page someone is visiting. For example, when someone is visiting the web page for one of the bands I play with, I’d like to list only the shows for that band, without showing the entire calendar of dates I’m doing for all bands.

    Also, on my main “Tour Dates” page, I’d like to be able to reorder the tours. Right now, it shows the tours alphabetically, by band name, but I’d like to reorder them.

    Is there a way to do these things with Gigpress? If not, is there a way to do it with The Events Calendar? Does the Events Calendar have a way to implement some of the features of Gigpress, like whether or not a show is part of a tour?

    You can see my current Gigpress calendar here: https://ronwikso.com/tour-dates/

    Thanks in advance for your help!!

    Kind regards,

    Ron Wikso

  • Hi @ronwikso

    Thanks for reaching out.

    You can create pages with each one containing a different calendar of events using shortcodes, but this feature is only available on the premium version of our events Calendar plugin.

    As for the main tour dates page, if you’re using Events Calendar, the listings will be arranged according to event start dates.

    I hope this answers your questions. Let me know if you need more information.

    Best regards,

    Hi Marho,

    Thanks for your reply.

    OK, One of the things I asked was whether or not I could show designate that show was part of a tour. So, which is a function that is available in your Gigpress plugin.

    I imagine that there must be something similar, maybe it’s called “Event Organizer”, or something to that effect, in The Events Calendar, but I wouldn’t want the information displayed on the front end that way. Would I be able to somehow have multiple events organizer (assuming that’s what they’re called) but have it show up on the front end as something else, like “CCR Tour” (where CCR is the name of the band whose tour it is?

    Also, if was using The Events Calendar Pro and I had a main calendar page that listed the shows according to event start dates, is there a way to have the full calendar sortable so that someone could sort by various things, like the name of the tour, or the artist name, or even by location (for example, only shows in California), even if it’s initially arranged according to start dates?

    Thank you!

    Kind regards,

    Ron

    Marho,

    One other thing I forgot to ask…

    If I had Events Calendar Pro and I was able to create shortcodes, would I be able to used multiple shortcodes on the same page?

    For example, I could have a section with only the tour dates for one band (placed there with a shortcoade), and then another separate section with only the tour dates for another band, and so on.

    Thanks!

    Hi again,

    Yes, it is possible to add multiple calendars to the same page when using the shortcodes.

    You are able to display events of a given category or tag with the shortcodes. If you had a taxonomy applied to events for each band, you would be able to show separate sections for each with a different calendar.

    Hope that helps!

    Best,
    Sky
