In this video I show you how to create a new event and add an event list on a page
Creating a new event is pretty easy first I will show you how to create a
single event page then I will teach you how to add a list that contains all your
upcoming and past events and I will show you how to add a grid module that
displays all your upcoming events finally I will teach you how to display
your events that are pulled from your BandsinTown page so you will be able to
manage all your events directly from your BandsinTown account.
First to create a new event go to your WordPress dashboard click the events menu and
click add new.
Enter the title of your event
to set the date and time of your event simply edit the publish date here
this will set your event when your event will take place.
Now enter any content or description of your event.
Now scroll down a bit and you can set all your
event infos in that module
You can set multiple buttons to be displayed in
your single event page such as a buy ticket link or RSVP button
if you use your website to manage multiple artists you can assign which artist(s) belong to
that event. You will then be able to filter your event list by artist using a
drop-down. You also have an option to redirect people to an external link
if you want to redirect the user to an external link instead of this page
Please use this field.
And finally don't forget to upload your event poster as
the featured image
okay now publish your post by clicking the schedule button.
If you want to add video or music player to that single pag, edit the page with Elementor
and add any content you'd like
that's it. You can preview your change by clicking this icon.
Here we go
Now you probably want to display all your upcoming events on your page
To do this create or edit an existing page such as your homepage. In my case I'm
gonna create a new page and add the event and gig module to it.
So I give my page a title and I click publish then I click Edit with Elementor
I'm gonna add the Sonaar Event and Gig module.
Note that this list you see here
is perhaps not displaying all your events because you are in the Elementor
Editor mode and there is currently a smart glitch here so when you will update
this page and check the result on the front-end the correct events will be displayed
So all you have to do is select the upcoming event to list your
upcoming events or past events to display all your past events.
Now click this Style tab and here you have a couple of settings that you can play
with it will change the look and feel of the event widget
I copy the existing Event widget and paste it below so I want to display my
past events so I select past events in that drop-down.
To display an event grid I'm gonna delete my previous Event widget
So we have a predesigned an Event grid module made with Essential Grid plugin
So add the Sonaar Essential Grid widget and select the Event grid.
please note that you can only
display upcoming events in that grid format you cannot display past events
if you are managing your events using BandsInTown, we have a special widget for it
Add the BandsInTown widget and you just have to fill the info with your own
and that's it
thanks for watching
