[events] Related events

[Iurii Smuglov]

Hi Stephen.

Do you have any ideas how to display related events on single-event page? As for me, i need only few (random or latest, doesnt matter) events in same category. But as an idea you can make some options avaiable from admin panel. 🙂

I’ll write up a tutorial on this next week, but you can use eo_get_events() (see codex) (along with the argument tax_query to get events in given categories and/or venues).

Remember that eo_get_events() is just a wrapper for get_posts() which itself uses WP_Query. So you can use everything detailed on this page: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query too.

Hi Stephen,

I tried to create a list of “related events” under the single-event.php but I did not succeed …
Related event also good for SEO…

Can you write up a simple tutorial ?

Hi Mario,

How are you determine what events are related to the current one?

Hi Stephen,

I think it is a good:
– events w/ same category and same state,
– if no events in same state show events in country
