Hi,

I’ve managed to customise the table layout but I need to display the prices for the events and event’s category name in the table header.

I can’t find the “event price” and the “category name” variables to display them into the table layout.

this is what I did:

td class="td-group">
<?php echo $event->event_cost ?> //this is not working
</td>
<td class="td-group">
<?php echo $open_spots ?>
</td>

I’ve also added a small change to display “closed” instead of “register” when the open_spots < 1, like this:

if ( $open_spots < 1 ) { $register_button = 'Closed'; }
else {
$register_button = 'id.'" href="'.get_option('siteurl').'/?page_id='.$event_page_id.'&regevent_action=register&event_id='.$event->id.'&name_of_event='.stripslashes_deep($event->event_name).'">Register';
}

is this correct? it appears to be working…

And the last question, I want to modify that “register” link to load the registration form into a specified page, if I change page_id to a custom page, will the registration form work?

Thank you for your help, I’m not the best coder 🙂

For the price and the category name you can use these shortcodes in a do_shortcode:

<?php echo do_shortcode('[EVENT_PRICE event_id="'.$event->id.'" number="0"]');?>

<?php echo do_shortcode('[CATEGORY_NAME event_id="'.$event->id.'"]');?>

And the last question, I want to modify that “register” link to load the registration form into a specified page, if I change page_id to a custom page, will the registration form work?

I’m afraid that will not work. The registration page is the page that has the [ESPRESSO_EVENTS] and is set to be the main registration page in Event Espresso>General Settings.

Hi Josh,

Thank you so much for the above, it works, but only after foreach.. what can I do to use them (at least to use the category name), before the foreach section, for example, I want to use it into the <th> section, bit above that.

Thank you again for your great support.

Hi Ion,

You’d need to create another foreach loop for the area where you want to display an event category name for each event.
