Override format in front page template

[Anonymous]

I would like to show three upcoming events on my front page with thumbnails and links. When I add <?php eme_get_events_list(“limit=3&category=3&period=future&order=ASC”); ?> I get a vertical list. How can I override this so the thumbnails are horizontal? I can see that there is the option to add &format but not how to use it.

Many thanks, Jane

See an example here (when using the shortcode, but it’s identical):

Thank you for this, perhaps I did not explain very well. I want to add the code to the front page template which currently calls latest posts in a particular category. I want to add an upcoming event into the template so that it adopts the same format as the other thumbnails, titles and links. Therefore I want to edit the template itself, not use shortcodes.

All help VERY welcome.

When using shortcodes inside your page, the template is also kept. So I don’t really understand this reason …

But as said, see the example in the link I provided for shortcodes. The method is identical when using the API function call directly:

<?php eme_get_events_list(“limit=3&category=3&period=future&order=ASC&format=xxxx”); ?>

where xxx is the html encoding of your format.

Thank you, that worked, guess I thought it was going to be more tricky than it was.
