Theater for Wordpress

Theme developer documentation

Event listings

Theater comes with two types of event listings:

• A list of all upcoming events.
• A list of upcoming events for a particular production.

A list of all upcoming events

You can use a shortcode to show an event listing in a post or a page.

You can also use the global $wp_theatre variable to add an event listing to your template:

echo $wp_theatre->events->get_html();

Or generate your own listing:

$args = array(
    'start' =>'now',
);
$events = $wp_theatre->events->get($args);
foreach ($events as $event) {
    echo $event->title();
    // do other stuff with your event        
}

A list of upcoming events for a particular production.

The Wordpress admin already has some options to add events listings to production pages.

You can also use the WPT_Production class to add an event listing to your production template:

$args = array(
	'production' => get_the_id(),
	'start' => 'now'
);
echo $wp_theatre->events->get_html();

Or generate your own listing:

$args = array(
	'production' => get_the_id(),
	'start' => 'now'
);
$events = $wp_theatre->events->get($args);
foreach ($events as $event) {
    echo $event->title();
    // do other stuff with your event        
}
