Hi guys,

Just getting used to EE4, I’m trying to output the entire events list onto another page but to no avail.

Does anybody know why:

<?php get_template_part( 'loop', 'espresso_events' ); ?>

Wouldnt’ work on the homepage?

Thanks folks.

Hi Simon,

Are you including the get_template_part call within a loop? If it’s not in a loop that’s part of a query to the database for espresso_event posts, that would be one reason why it wouldn’t work.

Here’s an example of a query + loop that grabs espresso_event posts and outputs them as an unordered list.

The unordered list part can be replaced with a get_template_part call if you prefer.

Ahh great stuff!

So from this how would I add some basic details like the date of said event etc?

Hi Simon,

You could use the available template tags for the event view, or even load in one of the templates we provide in the Espresso Arabica theme with get_template_part using something like:

<?php get_template_part( 'content', 'espresso_events' ); ?>
