Location List

[Anonymous]

I have a page called ‘Venues’ on my WordPress site and I’ve inserted the following shortcode on the page to display a list of locations/venues…

[events_locations link=true]

The problem is it is only bringing back the default locations (that are already included after installing EME). I have around 20 locations saved, none of those are listed on the page.

Also, when I edited one of the 3 default locations, it disappeared from the list, now leaving just 2 locations displayed. Is this a bug?

Thanks,

[Franky]

just tried it here: works ok for existing, edited and new locations. What version of EME are you using?

Do all these locations have a name and an address?

Hi Franky,

Yes they all have a name and address. I’ve just edited another location now and it has disappeared from the events_locations list, leaving me with just 1 default location listed.

[Franky]

Again: what version of EME are you using? And are you using only the link-option, nothing else?

[Anonymous]

Sorry forgot to state the version. Its v 1.0.1. Yes only the link-option.

I’ve tried using different shortcodes by using ‘scope’ ‘eventful’ etc but still won’t work. 🙁

Can you mail me an admin account? I’ll be able to look at it either later this evening …

Details sent, thanks!

Hmmm … I could not reproduce it with mu test version here, but it seems the problem is related with (on your side) that the title-part of the generated link for the location does have an opening ‘”‘, but no closing one (seems to be translated into it’s html-equivalent).

I didn’t have that problem here, but when trying to reproduce it, I bumped into the issue with the location name not being properly translated on the page. This has been fixed in the latest trunk version, so you might want to try that version: http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/events-made-easy.zip ). Do try it in test first, it might contain some other bugs 🙂

Hi Franky,

Thanks a lot! Do I need to install all of the trunk version? Or just the location files?

Thanks

[Franky]

All the files 🙂

[Anonymous]

Thanks Franky, 🙂

Will I lose any of events I’ve entered (in the database)?

[Franky]

should not be the case, but as said: try it on a test install first

Thanks Franky. Works perfect on my test site. Will transfer over to the live site now.

[Franky]

moving to fixed bugs.

Everything is working great now, I have a list displaying the Locations. Just wondering…is there a way of having a list show the locations image?

I have managed to do that with the Events list using:

<?php eme_get_events_list(“limit=3&scope=future&order=ASC”); ?>

Which implements my ‘Default event list format’:

<div style=”width:100%; background-color:#f1f1f1; height:130px; margin-bottom:10px;”>

<div style=”min-width:25%; float:left;”>#_EVENTIMAGE</div>

<div style=”width:75%; float:left; margin-top:10px;”><li class=”emeevlist”>

<span class=”emelistname”>#_LINKEDNAME</span>

<span class=”emelistdate”>#j #M #Y – #H:#i </span> – <span class=”emelistlocation”> #_LOCATIONNAME (#_TOWN) </span></p>

<p></div>

</div>

Is there a way of doing this with locations list?

Thanks,

[Anonymous]

Anyone found a way of doing this or similar?

Thanks,

[Franky]

You want to use #_LOCATIONIMAGE as well, similar as for events. See:

http://www.e-dynamics.be/wordpress/?cat=42

The api for the location functions is not described, but see the functions get_locations_shortcode() and eme_get_locations in eme_locations.php

Btw: this does not belong in a bug report, but should be asked in a separate thread.
