Hi Jackie,
Looking at the link you provided earlier:
http://acs-tn.dev.maxx-design.co.uk/events/
Your event lists is now working. However I do notice your events are linking to /acs-events/ which does not work correctly. Changing the url back to /events/ works as expected.
Can I ask if you have recently altered anything since reporting this?
Looking deeper at this I suspect this is set up issue. Can you please provide some details into how you have your event lists set up?

hmm thats pretty odd… it is now ignoring the changes in functions.php
Essentually i have added the following to functions.php in order to change the default events url.
add_filter( 'FHEE__EE_Register_CPTs__register_CPT__rewrite', 'acs_event_page_change', 10, 2 );
function acs_event_page_change( $slug, $post_type ) {
if ( $post_type == 'espresso_events' ) {
$custom_slug = array( 'slug' => 'acs-events' );
return $custom_slug;
}
return $slug;
}
That in itself was working fine, i haven’t changed anything since, so was a little odd for it to revert the URL.. I’ve flushed out the permalinks and its back to what i would expect again.

Update:: It reverted to showing the events because of a shared dev environment (multiple code bases, same DB). Another instance of the site updated the permalinks cache thus causing the events page to show up.
Issue remains im afraid 🙁

The /events/ page is basically and archive of the ‘espresso_events’ custom post type and not a ‘page’ in itself. So changing the slug for the events also alters the /events/ slug.
If you go here http://acs-tn.dev.maxx-design.co.uk/acs-events/ you’ll see the events working as expected.
So Event Espresso is actually working as expected for your use case, although this does highlight an issue when changing the slug. (The _Config issue reported)

That still doesnt fix the issue… i need to be able to print out a list of 3 events on the /events/ page with that shortcode. The /events/ page (once the error is gone anyway) has a number of other items on it, and was inplace before installing espresso.
The slug was changed because espresso was basically hijacking a pre-existing page.
does that make sense?

Apologies, I didn’t intended to imply the issue was resolved.
That does make sense yes. We are investigating the Config error and will update as soon as we find the cause.

Hi Jackie,
It turns out that Event Espresso 4.3 does not have support for using [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] with do_shortcode. It took some refactoring to make this happen, and the refactored code will be released with Event Espresso 4.4.
In the meantime if you want to display a list of events via a template, this can be accomplished with a custom loop like this:

Hi Jackie,
A little follow up: Event Espresso 4.4 is released and has the refactor that allows for the EE shortcode to work in a do_shortcode.
