[Plugin: Gigs Calendar] Sidebar (upcoming-widget.php) – display per tour?

Per tour will not be as easy a with discerned tours.

To do that, you have to add the following code to upcoming-widget.php (you might want to customize it to meet your expectations):

<?php
   $t = new tour($g->tour_id);
?>
<?php if ( !empty($t->name) ) : ?>
  <tr class="other">
    <td class="bold" valign="top">Tour: </td>
    <td><div class="notes"><?php echo nl2br($t->name); ?></div</td>
  </tr>
  <?php if ( !empty($t->notes) ) : ?>
    <tr class="other">
      <td class="bold" valign="top"> </td>
      <td>
        <div class="notes"><?php echo nl2br($t->notes); ?></div>
      </td>
    </tr>
  <?php endif; ?>
<?php endif; ?>

This will add two table rows. One with the name of the tour, the second with the notes of the tour (which you probably want to delete).

Thank you for this solution! This has helped me tremendously.

I have two additional questions, keeping in mind your contributions in the shortcodes-thread.

The archive page that can be set from the settings-pane seems to employ the gigs-list.php template. At one point it broke, so I restored it manually with a shortcode ( [gig-cal archive template=gigs-list] ). This however ignores tour-information. How come? What does the setting-pane do differently?

Also, for my particular need, I would like to have the option to display only one tour in a listing. Is there a work-around for that?

You’re welcome.

Don’t know about your problem with the broken archive you replaced. If I take a guess: Did you switch your template (or even deleted the custom template directory) maybe?

Listing gigs of a certain tour only is easier than I thought it was:
[gig-cal tour=REPLACE_WITH_TOUR_ID]

Yes, got it to work. Beautiful.

I am also trying to display these listings in the sidebar. I first tried the text-widget, but wp does not parse shortcodes from widgets (unless a hack is applied, which I could not get to work yet).

Another idea would be to include the corresponding php resulting from the shortcode in sidebar.php. Is that a viable option in this case?

Many thanks for you reply.

C’mon, I helped you twice. But each time I answer, you come up with another question. Third time turns this thread into consultation request ??

I’ve mentioned a possible way to solve your problem somewhere else in this forum. Just take a look around ..

I hear you. To be fair, my first question already involved the widget-situation.

At any rate, I have the solution at my fingertips, I just need to solve my other problem first. So thanks again.

About that archive situation; I tried switching a few things around, but it remained quirky. I can’t come up with a satisfactory explanation. But the shortcode can sufficiently reproduce the archive, as far as I am concerned.

A solution I noted somewhere else were the PostLists-plugin in conjunction with the PostList-Extension Gigs Calendar:

As far as I can remember, it creates lists of results of customizable queries you an use in sidebars.
