ShortCode for Custom Fields ?

Can some Guru give some comments?

or
Actually Events Calendar Pro
does NOT support short codes for custom fields?

This is a pre-sales question and will affect my decision to
buy the Pro version
or NOT!

Hi @hhtmp88,

Thanks for your message!

Our legacy V1 views are no longer supported, but you can Show Events Based on Custom Fields — this article will walk you through how to set this up, while using our updated V2 views.

But, there is not a built-in way to use these custom fields within Events Calendar Pro’s shortcodes.

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Erica

Dear Erica,

Am I right that:
(c) the direct use of the following shortcodes to display events of a particular “District” (which is a custom field), will NOT work?
— [tribe_events_list district=”ST 沙田”]

(d) we have to write our own plugin according to “Show Events Based on Custom Fields”
https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/k/show-events-by-custom-field/
-> before we can using this own-made plugin to display events of a custom field?

Thanks!

Hi @hhtmp88,

That’s correct, this would require custom development — it wouldn’t work “out of the box” with your custom fields.

Thanks,
Erica
