Hi PhilB,

So this code:

espresso_get_template_part( 'content', 'none' );

Tells Event Espresso to look for a template file called ‘content-none.php’ within various locations through your site.

Most themes usually have a ‘content-none.php’ template file and its output when nothing can be found regardless of what post type is used (in this case its our events).

So, yes you can use the method in the above post to translate the text, however that will only work if your theme is translation ready and it will translate that text for all ‘no posts found’ output.

You could create your own and load that within espresso-events-table-template.template.php, are you loading that template within your themes root directory or are you looking within the table plugin?

Also does your theme currently have a ‘content-none.php’ template file?

So i could make my own content-none.php with a different message, call it content-noevent.php and add the text i want into that file and then in the line
espresso_get_template_part( ‘content’, ‘none’ );
(‘content’ , ‘none’ ) to ( ‘content’ , ‘noevent’) ?

Yes that’s correct.

I have a directory in my uploads/espresso/templates where i have the espresso events table template, so i would use that one to call my own template part?

Yes, use your edited table view template to call the custom template for no events.

That custom template will only be called for that specific event list (the table view) but it should work fine.

Let me know if you run into any problems 🙂

So in order to display the event organizer you need the event, because the event organizer is assigned to the event right?

The problem with what your trying to do is you want to display event specific data on a template you display when you cant find any events. That means you don’t have an event to pull the data you need from, make sense?

How are you creating these event lists?

Would i be correct in thinking there is no actual direct link between an organiser and a venue, so i wouldn’t be able to work on the venues ID/Slug to get the email address, and then when there are no events display it.

Yes that’s correct, the relationship is between the event.

The venue relates to the event and the organizer relates to the event, so you need the event object to pull it all together.

I had another idea, thinking i could add an email address to the venue’s information page. I’ve just checked though and there is no email field on there.

So each venue has a unique organizer for that venue?

If so you could add the email address as a custom field within the venue, however you’ll need some custom coding to pull that into the venue output.

Or you could include the email of the organizer within the Venue description to display it that way.

There’s some general information about how to use the recommended Advanced Custom Fields plugin with Event Espresso here:

https://eventespresso.com/2014/08/developers-corner-using-advanced-custom-fields-extend-ee4/

Along with that, the action hooks that are available to use for adding extra content to a venue post can be found in the venue templates found in Event Espresso’s public/Espresso_Arabica_2014 folder. The venue templates have “espresso_venues” and “venues” in their name.

Just to note, the coding option still requires you edit each venue and add the email address to a custom field each time which means you could just add it to the description at the same time…

However that won’t work if you want to add other conditions into the mix and will also depend on where exactly you want to display the email.

Here is a quick example that will pull the custom field ‘venue_organizer_email’ from the venue post and echo it out to the page after the content:

function tw_ee_show_custom_venue_info ( $post ) {

	$email = get_post_meta($post->ID, 'venue_organizer_email', true);

	if( ! empty( $email ) ) {
		echo $email;
	}

}
add_action( 'AHEE__content_espresso_venues_details_template__after_the_content', 'tw_ee_show_custom_venue_info' );
