Showing events on homepage AND in calendar

  • Hi All,

    I started working on a website using Accesspress Lite and so far I love it! There’s one thing that I would really like to achieve but haven’t been able to figure out though.

    I really like how Accesspress Lite is showing posts as Events on the homepage. However, I’m also planning on incorporating a calendar on one of the pages and it would be great if this calendar would be able to display these events or that Accesspress Lite would be able to display the upcoming events from the calendar on the homepage. This way, it would save me from entering the same information in two locations.

    I’ve played around with several calendars, but I cannot seem to get it to work, so I was hoping that someone could point me in the right direction.

    Any help is appreciated,
    Thanks,
    Roel

    Are you trying to incorporate some plugins in the event section?

    Hi Access Keys,

    Thank you for your response. Let me try to explain it a little clearer.

    On the homepage, Accesspress Lite is generating an Event list (standard 3 events) based on WordPress posts. I’ve given some WordPress posts the categorie “Events” so it is these posts that show up there which is great.

    The website that I’m building will, however, have many more events than just these three. I’d like to show all events on a separate page in a calendar. I know how to do it with a calendar plugin (I’m unbiased as to which calendar plugin to use).

    But from what I tried so far, this would mean that I would have to enter each event as a WordPress post (so they show up as events on the homepage) AND in the calendar, so they show up there. Ideally, it would be great if I only have to enter events once (somewhere) and have the upcoming events show up on the homepage and all the events in a calendar on a separate page.

    I hope this makes sense,
    Thanks,
    Roel

    To show all the events in the separate page
    Go to Appearance-> Menu
    Make a new menu
    Set it as a primary menu.
    Now make a category menu of the event from the left
    When you click that menu item, it will list all your events.

    Is it what you want?
