Hello, Im looking to filter my events using the tag taxonomy instead of categories in the table view. Im using the category taxonomy to show different lists of events on different pages. I see there is a currently a way to filter the events by category that utilizes the function/argument espresso_event_categories to grab all categories. Im wondering if there is a similar function that grabs all tags. Alternatively, if there is a better/different way to create separate event lists and use shortcodes to display them. Thanks! |
Hi there, WordPress includes a tag archive. Here’s a link to some documentation: https://codex.wordpress.org/Tag_Templates So how that works in EE4 is when you tag some events with the same tag, they’ll all appear in that tag’s archive, which will have this URL structure: http://yoursite.com/tag/tagslug One thing to keep in mind though: If you have events and regular WP posts that are given the same tag, they’ll both appear in the same tag archive. |

Right, which is why I was wondering if theres a way to pull only the event tags. But it seems like the tags are batched in with all of wordpress. But I did manage to work out a way to grab some of the event tags, but just not sure how to get them all in one array rather than printing out per post. Im using the table-template add-on, and in the loop there was a conditional that grabbed the category of each post and printed it onto the wrapper class:
And i modified that to grab the events tags:
is there a similar method that would let me get ALL the tags that the events are using into an array? Im trying to print out checkboxes and filter via tag values. |
