Go directly to event

Yes – see this thread for an example

Ah wait – wrong calendar :). So the answer is yes – but only in 1.6 (currently in Beta). See this thread instead ??

I’d be VERRRY interested in that feature, too ??

Will it be possible to jump directly to an event from a specific category, even though there are other events on that date in a different category?

You know, I’m the one how uses your plugin for short stories. I have 5 of them each day. I also want to include a “daily tip”, so I’d make another category “tipps” with only one event every day (with yearly repeat) and jump from the submenu directly to the tip, instead of a list with only one entry.

Would that be possible? When will you release 1.6?

thank you so much!

Certain will. Let’s suppose we want to link to a category page – and, if present, we want ‘tipps’ to be used. (We’ll also link to the category page, but filter by events starting that are ‘running’ that day using the ondate parameter)

add_filter('eventorganiser_widget_calendar_date_link', 'tunixtunix_link_to_event_cat',10,3);
function amen_link_straight_to_event( $link, $date, $events ){
       //Note $date is a datetime object corresponding to a day in the widget calendar

       //Sanity check
       if( !$events )
           return $link;

       //Let's get all the event terms:
       $event_cats = array();
       foreach( $events as $event ){
          $terms = get_the_terms( $event->ID, 'event-category' );
          if( $terms)
             $events_cats += $terms;
       }

       //If not event categories, abort
       if( !$event_cats )
          return $link;

       //Extract the term slugs
       $event_slugs = wp_list_pluck( $event_cats, 'term' );

       if( in_array('tipps', $event_slug ) ){
           $slug = 'tipps';
       }else{
           //Tipps not present, just pick another category
           $slug = array_pop( $event_slugs )
       }

        //Get link to that category, and append 'ondate'
       $link = add_query_arg('ondate',$date->format('Y-m-d', get_term_link( $slug, 'event-category' );

        return $link;
}

**Note:** This is not tested, but should work in principle. It will only work for **1.6** or above which is currently in beta. I’m not plaining on releasing this until after WP 3.5 (which is due to be out 5th December). You can expect it shortly after – but I’d like to do some more bug tests ??

The code above is a bit buggy – I’ve not tested it, but I can see some syntax errors. I’ve made this gist: https://gist.github.com/4133300

1.6 was released earlier today so the above filter is available. You can find out more here: https://wp-event-organiser.com/blog/1-6-released/

Thank you Stephen – I’ll give it a try
