Hello, I am wanting to write a few conditional statements based on the category of an event.
I wanting to write these conditional statements into “registration_page_display.php”.
Basically, I just want to do this:
If this event is in X category, show some specific content
Else, if this event is in Y category, show this other content
Pretty basic conditional stuff, I just don’t know event espresso well enough to know what to use!
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Is there a function like “is_category(‘category_id’);” ??

I will most likely end up using pages and shortcodes…

Hi Andrew,
Some thing like this may get you started
<?php
$blah = espresso_event_category_data($event_id, $all_cats = TRUE); // use false if you dont want just one.
$blahz = $blah['category_identifier'];
$blahz = str_replace ( " ", "", $blahz ); //strip spaces out!
if($blahz == "rock") { echo "YEY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"; }
?>
If you have multiple categories per event you may need to add in a foreach to go through the array to check the category marker is there or not.

Hi Dean, I appreciate the response! But, I’m in the midst of switching everything over to pages and using shortcodes for everything. I’ve ran into a problem (or complaint at least) while doing that, I’m going to start a new topic for it.
Thanks again
