Display Static Content on Page w/Eventbrite Events

Hi Robert,

You’re correct, the template takes over the page to which it’s assigned, and outputs just the title and events.

If you want the template to also display whatever message you add as the content of that page, you should be able to copy the tmpl/eventbrite-index.php file from the plugin to your theme, and add the the_content() template tag near the top. Something like this:

<?php
/**
 * Template Name: Eventbrite Events
 */

get_header(); ?>

	<div id="primary" class="content-area">
		<main id="main" class="site-main" role="main">
			<header class="page-header">
				<h1 class="page-title">
					<?php the_title(); ?>
				</h1>
			</header><!-- .page-header -->

			<div>
				<?php the_content(); ?>
			</div>

			<?php
				// Set up and call our Eventbrite query.
				$events = new Eventbrite_Query( apply_filters( 'eventbrite_query_args', array(

Thanks for the prompt reply. I’ve copied the tmpl/eventbrite-index.php file from the plugin to my theme (Customizr), and added the the_content() template tag near the top, as you recommended. Where/how do I specifically add the custom content so that it appears on my Events page? By the way, my site isn’t live yet. Otherwise I’d share a link. ??

Hi,

You would enter the content as normal on the page that has the Eventbrite template assigned to it. Anything there will be output in that the_content() call, before displaying the events right below it.

Hi there,

Doesn’t seem to work. I’d actually tried this, and thought I was perhaps doing something wrong. To be more specific about what I’ve tried so far, I copied thetmpl/eventbrite-index.php to my theme directory, and added the the_content() call, as suggested. Also tried renaming the file to eventbrite-index.php, assuming that the full name (eventbrite-api/tmpl/eventbrite-index.php) wasn’t a recognized name convention and thus might be the problem. No luck.

Thanks again for the help!

My site is live at https://sanjoseholistichealthcenter.com. Appreciate if you could have a look at this page to see why I’m still having this issue.
