Hey folks,

I’m developing a site for a client now (it’s not live yet), and I need a little assistance. The “Fitness” theme they want to use is already set up with a post category called “classes”, that list both on the classes page, and in a widget on the front page. I have already added the shortcode to get EventEspresso’s events tagged “classes” to appear. That was easy.

What I need to know is how can I modify the existing widget to draw from Event Espresso rather than the theme’s “classes” category posts?

The code below is from the page template for the first third display area.

[code language=”php”]<!– Start of home content –>

<div class=”home_content”>

<?php

$featuredport = new WP_Query(‘showposts=1&post_type=class’);

while ($featuredport->have_posts()) : $featuredport->the_post();

?>

<img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/img/classicon.png” height=”27″ width=”21″ alt=”<?php the_title (); ?>” class=”lefthome” />

<!– Start of homeclass –>

<div class=”homeclass”>

<a href=”<?php the_permalink (); ?>”><?php the_title (); ?></a>

<p><?php $excerpt = get_the_excerpt(); echo string_limit_words($excerpt,10); ?></p>

</div><!– End of homeclass –>

<?php

if ( function_exists( ‘get_option_tree’ ) ) {

$homeclassmore = get_option_tree( ‘vn_homclassmore’ );

} ?>

<?php if ($homeclassmore != (”)){ ?>

<a class=”small” href=”<?php the_permalink (); ?>”><?php echo stripslashes($homeclassmore); ?></a>

<?php } else { } ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

<hr />

</div><!– End of home content –>

<!– Start of home content bottom –>

<div class=”home_content_bottom”>

<?php

$featuredport = new WP_Query(‘showposts=1&post_type=class&offset=1’);

while ($featuredport->have_posts()) : $featuredport->the_post();

?>

<img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/img/classicon.png” height=”27″ width=”21″ alt=”<?php the_title (); ?>” class=”lefthome” />

<!– Start of homeclass –>

<div class=”homeclass”>

<a href=”<?php the_permalink (); ?>”><?php the_title (); ?></a>

<p><?php $excerpt = get_the_excerpt(); echo string_limit_words($excerpt,10); ?></p>

</div><!– End of homeclass –>

<?php

if ( function_exists( ‘get_option_tree’ ) ) {

$homeclassmore = get_option_tree( ‘vn_homclassmore’ );

} ?>

<?php if ($homeclassmore != (”)){ ?>

<a class=”small” href=”<?php the_permalink (); ?>”><?php echo stripslashes($homeclassmore); ?></a>

<?php } else { } ?>

<?php endwhile; ?>

<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

</div><!– End of home content bottom –>

</article><!– End of one third first –>[/code]
