Because EE4 does not support multilingual setups (WPML). I’m trying to load the event into another post type created by PODS plugin which does support WPML.

In the CPT I created a relation to the event and I’m able to get the event ID and also stuff like the_title() work fine. However, I don’t seem to be able to get the rest of the data from the event in my post.

What function calls can I use to embed the event data in my post?

BTW I also tried using the shortcode [ESPRESSO_TICKET_SELECTOR] but it only gives the basic data and booking button, not even begin-end dates.

Hi there,

You can use any of the template tags listed on this page:

https://eventespresso.com/wiki/ee4-themes-templates/

Then if you require further info beyond what the template tags return, you can use the built in model objects to query the data:

Thanks for the quick reply.

Makes sense. I didn’t get how to use these but ok.
So if in the loop you can use these calls to get the data…

I’ve just added the espresso_event_reg_button() but this just makes a button link to the EE event post. It does not, like on the single event page, start the booking process.
Are there additional params/settings to get this working?

thanks

The espresso_event_reg_button() template tag doesn’t start the booking process. It only displays a link to the single event page. To get a functioning ticket selector on another CPT, your best option is use the ticket selector shortcode.
