Events as Posts

GYIK

When I choose to display events by category they are not showing

Double check that you have written the category name correctly and, if you have more than one category, that you have separated them with a comma.

I chose to display the excerpt in a list of events and it’s showing in all the lists, how can it be?

The setting that allows you to show the excerpt on lists of events is not related to the shortcode and if selected it will show the excerpt on all the lists.

Can I change the order of how events on the list are displayed?

Yes, just add to the shortcode order="ASC" for ascendent order or order="DESC" for descendent order.

Using events’ metadata with other plugins

Use the following meta keys:

• eap_from_day: starting date of the event ( Y-m-d format )
• eap_from_day_custom_format: starting date of the event ( settings’ format )
• eap_from_time: starting time of the event ( H:i format )
• eap_from_time_custom_format: starting time of the event ( settings’ format )
• eap_until_day: ending date of the event ( Y-m-d format )
• eap_until_day_custom_format: ending date of the event ( settings’ format )
• eap_until_time: ending time of the event ( H:i format )
• eap_until_time_custom_format: ending time of the event ( settings’ format )
• eap_location: location of the event
• eap_link_location: link to event’s location
• eap_city: event’s city
• eap_country: event’s country
• eap_add_info: additional information about the event

If you’re going to use ‘M’ or ‘F’ as a date format for the month, which display the month in letters (short and long form), the month name will be stored in the database in the language of the user who created or updated the event.
