Hi,
I need to display the City or Venue inside the widget events list.
How can I do it?

Hi,
You would need to edit the widget.php template file.
Personally I would add something like the following into the list item at around line 132
<?php echo do_shortcode('[ESPRESSO_VENUE event_id="' . $event->id . '" show_image="false" show_description="false" show_address="false" show_additional_details="false" show_google_map_link="false" show_map_image="false" outside_wrapper="span" title_wrapper="span" ]'); ?>
All this does is show the venue name via shortcode.

Is however possible to extract only the city?
Maybe using get_post_meta($post->ID, 'event_city');?

Hi,
In EE3, if you are using the Venue Manager, then the venue details are not held in the meta, so your above example won’t work.
If it’s via the Venue Manager, then the only ways I could think of doing it would be to either do a couple of SQL queries to find the venue ID and then get then venue data needed, or to pull the address in via the shortcode then explode() the value and get the data that way.
The SQL option will probably be the easier option.

Can you make me an example with the SQL code?

I have wrote a new code line into the shortcode.php file. How can I avoid to loose the custom code if I decide to update the plugin? What is the suggested way to move this modification into the custom_functions.php file?

Daniele – Any chance you can share what you did for people that are looking for this, or something similar. I’m trying to show the next upcoming event on our homepage, but need it to include the venue, which I can’t seem to do (at least just the city/state)
Thanks! Maybe your code will help me.
