Hello,
I am trying to run a custom query that uses ajax to load more events based on some custom taxonomy filters. The issue is that when I use the Event Espresso query (EE_Event_List_Query) versus. the normal WordPress query I can’t access the ‘paged’ parameter in order to return the results I want. I see that the Espresso query has the ‘limit’ parameter but this doesn’t work when I try to load things via ajax, as it just keeps loading the 1st “page” every time, as the ‘limit’ acts more as the posts_per_page parameter. Here is my query:

$arrParams = array(
‘post_type’ => array(‘espresso_events’),
‘limit’ => 5,
‘suppress_filters’ => false,
‘sort’ => ‘ASC’,
‘order_by’ => ‘start_date’,
);

global $wp_query;
$new = new EE_Event_List_Query($arrParams);

$all_posts = array();
$all_posts = array_merge($all_posts, $new->posts);

$postCount=0;
foreach ( $all_posts as $post ) : setup_postdata( $post );?>
<!– data im returning via ajax –>
<?php
wp_reset_query();
wp_reset_postdata();
endforeach; ?>

If I were doing this with the WordPress query I would query like this:

$arrParams = array(
‘post_type’ => array(‘doctor’),
‘paged’ => $pageID,
‘posts_per_page’ => ‘5’,
‘orderby’ => array( ‘menu_order’ => ‘ASC’ ),
‘suppress_filters’ => $suppressFilters
);

with the $pageId being returned on submit of the “load more” button to get the continuing data.

Any ideas on how to get the equivalent of the ‘paged’ parameter in the Event Espresso query?
