Thats what the “N;” is… no idea what that means! haha

[Moderator Note: No bumping, thank you.]

Yes I have tested that too.

function getEventsWithFilter($limit, $conditions, $blog = ""){
	$grab = 5;
	$offset = 0;
	$events = [];
    while(count($events) < $limit){
    	$tempEvents = EM_Events::get( array('limit' => $grab,
    										'offset'=> $offset,
    										'blog' => $blog,
    										'array'=> true));
    	if(count($tempEvents) == 0)
    		break;//no more events to save
    	//print_r($tempEvents);
    	foreach($tempEvents as $tempEvent){
    		$EA = serialize($tempEvent->event_attributes);
    		print_r($EA);
    		if($EA){
    			foreach($conditions as $condition){
    				//echo $condition;
    				if(in_array("publish_to_university_homepage", $EA))
        				array_push($events, $tempEvent);
        		}
        	}
        }
        $offset += $grab;
    }

    //Trim off extra arrays, since we do 2 at a time
    return array_slice($events, 0, $limit);
}

Gives this as output (repeated multiple times):

N;
Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in /Users/thegreyspot/Workroom/wnmu/wp-content/themes/wnmu/lib/custom.php on line 166

        		}
        	}
        }
        $offset += $grab;
    }

    //Trim off extra arrays, since we do 2 at a time
    return array_slice($events, 0, $limit);
}

This gives me this error on the in_array line:

Warning: in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, string given in

Also the print_r, clearly looks like an string.

Does that help? Thanks

@angelo_nwl I did that but in_array complains that its still a string. So I’m guessing it was able to serialize?

I mean, this doesnt look very normal to me:
[event_attributes] => a:1:{s:30:”publish_to_university_homepage”;s:1:”0″;}

I am trying to do what Angelo_nwl suggested. However, I don’t know how to parse

[event_attributes] => a:1:{s:30:"publish_to_university_homepage";s:1:"0";}

Which is what is in my EM_Events array. PHP thinks its a string, so I can’t use in_array…

Any ideas?

Right thats what I understood too? But I’m saying that wouldn’t be very efficient. Do you have any recommendations on how I should do my search? Should I just go day by day until i have the number of events I want?

You mean grab a couple of events and then filter through them with this kind of if statement?

That would be sort inconvenient, because I wont know how many posts to grab before finding what i need.

Thanks

It just lists all of events and ignores the “publish_to_university_homepage =>1” attribute i have in my get() request.

Keep in mind, I added this custom field using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), and NOT the events Manager custom fields. I did this because it made it easier with the other fields I have for posts. Do I need to use the Events Manager custom fields? If so, how would I form the get requests in this case? And can I apply the same custom fields across my whole multisite network?

Thanks

That worked!!! Thanks so much ?? +1! I should have just tried it…

Hmm not sure what you mean? I have a feeling the plugin only supports one blog io for that blog variable… anyone else know the answer to this?

Yes I have tried:
$events= EM_Events::get('limit=3&blog="2,3"');

As for your array parameter – you have a syntax error. That same syntax error might be why the blogs parameter isn’t working for you.

Maybe you can tell me what the syntax error is? I don’t see it.

Thanks

Ummm, thats what I have?

*bump ??

Thanks webjunk. I was able to figure out that the Events Calendar plugin i had was giving issues. I really like that plugin so now I dont know what to do ??

Thanks for your help

OH no! I hope you get better ??

I switched the theme to the default theme, but seem to be having the same problem…

Can you give me any advice on how to find the culprit function?

thanks!
