Descripcion
Further documentation can be found at http://docs.wp-event-organiser.com/shortcodes/posterboard/.
Basic Usage
To display the event posterboard simply use the shortcode [event_board]
on any page or post. Full width pages work best.
Advanced Usage
The shortcode supports the same arguments as the events list shortcode. This
includes the ability to display only a particular category, or events satisfying a certain query.
For example, to show events only for category « foobar »:
[event_board event_category="foobar"]
To show events starting in the comming 7 days
[event_board event_category="foobar"]
Most arguments supported by the [eo_events]
(see documentation) shortcode will also work with
posterboard. Please note that posts_per_page
should be used instead of
numberposts and the no_events
attributes is not supported.
E.g. to show events which start this week (week starting Monday), three at a time:
[event_board event_start_after="monday this week" event_start_before="sunday this week" posts_per_page=3]
Filters
You can add filters at the top of the event board to filter the events. Supported filters include:
- venue
- category
- city (when installed with Event Organiser Pro)
- state (when installed with Event Organiser Pro)
- country (when installed with Event Organiser Pro)
For example
[event_board filters="state"]
You can display multiple filters by listing them as a comma delimited list
[event_board event_start_after="now" event_start_before="+1 week"]
You can edit the template used for the event board. See the FAQ.

Installacion
Installation and set-up is standard and straight forward.
- Upload
event-organiser-event-board
folder (and all it’s contents!) to the/wp-content/plugins/
directory - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Add the shortcode to a page.
FAQ
-
Can I change the content of the event boxes?
-
Yes. By default the plug-in uses the template found in
event-organiser-event-board/templates
.
Simply copy that template (single-event-board-item.html
) into your theme and edit it there. Please note
that the template uses underscore.js templating. -
Can I disable/change the styling?
-
Yes, the following code in a plug-in/theme can disable (deregister) the stylesheet, and (optionally) register a replacement:
function my_custom_posterboard_styles(){ //Deregister default styles wp_deregister_style( 'eo_posterboard' ); //Optional, register "event-board.css" from your theme directory. wp_register_style( 'eo_posterboard', get_template_directory_uri() . '/event-board.css', array() ); } add_action( 'init', 'my_custom_posterboard_styles', 999 );
Alternatively you can use the setting in Settings > Event Organiser > General to disable all Event Organiser’s stylesheets. This may affect the
performance of some features if you do not provide your own styling in your theme.
