how to insert the upcoming events in a static homepage

Hey man! I was developing a project that i needed something like that. I just created a custom query post, to display the events.
Something like that:

<?php
            $featured_events = tribe_get_events( array(
                    'tribe_events_cat'  => 'games',
                    'start_date'        => current_time( 'd-m-Y' ),
                    'showposts'         => 3
                ));

            if ( empty( $featured_events ) ) {
                echo 'No event found.';
            }

            else foreach( $featured_events as $featured_event ) {
?>
<h1><?php echo $featured_event->post_title; ?></h1>
<?php } ?>

I dont know if that was what you needed, but its ok ??

hi man, thanks for the answear,
it doesn’t works ?? how can I show the upcomung not from ONE category but from ALL category?
in your example there is ‘game’ I would like the latest 3 event from all the events
thanks for reading and for the support

hi man, did you try without tribe_events_cat?

<?php
            $featured_events = tribe_get_events( array(
                    'start_date'        => current_time( 'd-m-Y' ),
                    'showposts'         => 3 //how many to show
                ));

            if ( empty( $featured_events ) ) {
                echo 'No event found.';
            }

            else foreach( $featured_events as $featured_event ) {
?>
<h1><?php echo $featured_event->post_title; ?></h1>
<?php } ?>

I’m trying to put a category of events within a custom loop.

My loop is simple, how do I display the category of event that I want?
query_posts('cat=3')

I tried this but it does not work to put part of the category of the event.
query_posts(array('post_type' => array('tribe_events','post'), 'cat' => '3,11') )

cat 11 is the id of the category of the event, but I think it is not the same as the category of a post common. Any ideas?

great man! it works! how can how show also the date and the featured image of the event??
thank you so much!

Hi folks,

Nice to see the community helping here.

@frnlnz, you can take a look at our single event template to see how these fields are added. You can find it in wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/srv/views/single-event.php.

Best,
Nico
