Hi,
I’ve installed eventespresso on my painting courses website soireepeinture.fr and I would like to provide 4 way to find an event :
By date : The calendar will do it.
By venue : I have created the venue on the admin, but I don’t know how to display event by venue on the front part.
By Teacher : I don’t see anything in the admin, is there a way to do it ? Can I use another field ?
By Painting : I don’t see anything in the admin, is there a way to do it ? Can I use another field ?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Omid,
By Date – event list or calendar
By Venue – [ESPRESSO_VENUE_EVENTS] https://eventespresso.com/wiki/shortcodes-template-variables/#venue-list
By Teacher – add them as staff and then use [EVENT_LIST staff_id=”1″] – https://eventespresso.com/wiki/shortcodes-template-variables/#event-list
By Painting – Possibly by Category instead? [EVENT_LIST event_category_id=your_category_identifier] https://eventespresso.com/wiki/shortcodes-template-variables/#event-list – You could possibly do this via a Custom Meta Field, but you would need to create a custom shortcode to do that.

Thanks a lot Dean, you gave me hope, you’re the best !
I’ve looked at “Shortcodes & template variables” page, and it seems that what i would like to do is like [EVENT_LIST order_by=venue_title]
I’ve tried this exact shortcode on this page :
http://soireepeinture.fr/calendrier-soirees/par-lieu/
But the events aren’t sorted by venue (the two events at “saké bar” are not one after each other).
What have I done wrong ?
Also I’ve added a picture and a description for each venue, but it’s never displayed.
For events listing by Teacher, you suggested me to use “staff”, do you mean by staff the creator of the event ?
Also is there a way to use the “order_by” shortcode for staff ?
For events listing by Painting, is there a way to use the “order_by” shortcode for category ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Can you try using [EVENT_LIST order_by=venue_name]?
TO display the image and description you will need to use the [ESPRESSO_VENUE] shortcode in the event, or add it to the template file (registration_page_display.php). The information doesn’t show on the event list, unless you modify the template.
Make sure to turn off the Template Setting “Display the address in the registration form?” otherwise you will end up with two address in the registration page.
By Staff, I do not mean the creator of the event, but the Staff Manager (if it isn’t showing on your menu go to General Settings and turn it on). https://eventespresso.com/wiki/staff-manager/
[EVENT_LIST order_by=staff_name]
For the picture, there isnt an order by for categories that I can find, unless you filtered the list just to use a particular category and sorted it (sort=DESC)

Thanks a lot Dean, [EVENT_LIST order_by=venue_name] and [EVENT_LIST order_by=staff_name] work great !
In the event list (by date, venue, or staff) I would like to “factorize” the information and have :
INFORMATION ABOUT VENUE 1
-information about event A
-information about event B
INFORMATION ABOUT VENUE 2
-information about event C
-information about event D
Instead of :
-information about event A AND venue 1
-information about event B AND venue 1
-information about event C AND venue 2
-information about event D AND venue 2
I guess I have to edit the template files ? Do you have any information links about those which could help ?
Thanks a lot

Hi,
Not sure thats possible with Event List.
You could add a page, with some shortcodes such as
[ESPRESSO_VENUE id=”1″]
[ESPRESSO_VENUE_EVENTS id=1]
[ESPRESSO_VENUE id=”2″]
[ESPRESSO_VENUE_EVENTS id=2]
That would display a venue and you could use the parameters vaiulable for [ESPRESSO_VENUE] to remove unneeded date and then it will display the event associated with that venue below it thanks to [ESPRESSO_VENUE_EVENTS], and so on.
