Entry Slider / Event Calender

Hi Ismael, thanks for your quick reply.
Actually the website is in maintenance mode so I can´t show. But its okay.
Come back if I have finish the website and react this thread.

Best regards

Hi Ismael.
Sorry for delay. Litte vacation :)

First of all the website is not ready yet.
What i did:
I copy this code:

add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);
function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
{
  $template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
      array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');

  return $paths;
}

to my function.php and i have created a folder called /shortcodes. After that i copy all files from the original theme /enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/postslider to my new folder.

Than I changed this: $order = ‘DESC’; to $order = ‘ASC’; in /postslider.php | row 761 (DESC = Descending / ASC = Ascending)
Works fantastic.
Currently I have the problem that all events are displayed. The past, too. (Dates are correct) Only the upcoming events should be displayed

An the second:
I would like to have the date above the slide-image.
I found this in /postslider.php:

$output .= '<footer class="entry-footer">';
                    if( !empty($meta) ) $output .= $meta;
                    $output .= '</footer>';

But where i have to copy it above the silde-image?

best regards
Chris

Hi Ismael, thanks for your quick reply.
I enter the code above in my functions.php. It works partly.
Now I have the upcoming events, but the created date is displayed. Not the date of the event.
And secondly all categories are displayed, although I eg. choose only one category.

Strange! :)

Hi Ismael,
sorry for delay.

Hi add this to postslider.php: .tribe_get_start_date( $entry->ID, false, 'F j, Y' )
Works fine. The event start dates are displayed

Currently, the problem is that only display one categorie if i choose more than one on the startpage. Strange ! :)

best regards
Chris

Thanks Ismael & Victoria.

Here my tutorial to use the enfold postslider with the plugin “Event Calender”

1. Copy this code to your function.php in your child theme (important)

add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);
function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
{
  $template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
      array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');

  return $paths;
}

2. Copy this code to your function in your child theme

 <?php

/*
* Add your own functions here. You can also copy some of the theme functions into this file. 
* WordPress will use those functions instead of the original functions then.
*/

/*
 * Enfold Avia Shortcode changes for child theme
 */

add_filter('avia_load_shortcodes', 'avia_include_shortcode_template', 15, 1);
function avia_include_shortcode_template($paths)
{
  $template_url = get_stylesheet_directory();
      array_unshift($paths, $template_url.'/shortcodes/');

  return $paths;
}

/*
* add a upcoming event filte to postslider
*/
add_filter('avia_post_slide_query', 'avia_post_slide_query_mod', 10, 2);
function avia_post_slide_query_mod( $query, $params ) {
	$eventquery = array('paged'=> false, 'eventDisplay' => 'list', 'tax_query'=> array(
        array(
            'taxonomy' => 'tribe_events_cat',
            'field' => 'term_id',
            'terms' => explode(',', $params['categories'])
        )
    ));
	
    $upcoming = Tribe__Events__Query::getEvents( $eventquery, true);
	
	$include = array();

	foreach($upcoming->posts as $key => $event) {
		$include[] = $event->ID;
	}

	$query['tax_query'] = array();

	$query['post__in'] = $include;
	return $query;
}

3. Create a folder called /shortcodes (important) in your child theme. After that copy all files from the original theme /enfold/config-templatebuilder/avia-shortcodes/postslider to the folder /shortcodes

4. Than change this in file: postslider.php | row 761:
$order = ‘DESC’; to $order = ‘ASC’; (DESC = Descending / ASC = Ascending)

5. In your postslider.php change this code | row 629 (This entry is to display the startdate from the event.)
$meta .= "<time class='slide-meta-time updated' $markup>" .get_the_time(get_option('date_format'), $the_id)."</time>";
in
$meta .= "<time class='slide-meta-time updated' $markup>" .tribe_get_start_date( $entry->ID, false, 'F j, Y' )."</time>";
This entry is to display the startdate from the event.

Different display:
a .tribe_get_start_date( $entry->ID, false, ‘F j, Y’ ). Looks like this: November 11, 2018
b .tribe_get_start_date( $entry->ID, false, ‘F j, Y – g:i a’ ). Looks like this: November 11, 2018 – 9:00 am
c .tribe_get_start_date( $entry->ID ). Looks like this: .November 11 @ 9:00
Change the @ sign in the plugin options from event calender in what you like.

Addional.
Limiting excerpt (if you want to limit the excerpt in postslider)
Add this code to your functions.php

add_filter('avf_postgrid_excerpt_length','avia_change_excerpt_length',10,1);
function avia_change_excerpt_length()
{
return 65;
}

Change “return 65” to increase or reduce the excerpt. Example return 100;

Have fun.

Thanks Enfold team for helping me.
Best regards
Chris
