How to Show a List of Recurring Events (but not all events individually) with Events Calendar Pro

August 13, 2012 12:34pm

If you use Events Calendar Pro and you want to have a list of all recurring events, but not a list of each specific reoccurrence within each event, well here’s the code for you:

<?php $upcoming = new WP_Query();

  $upcoming->query( array(

    'post_type' => 'tribe_events',

    'posts_per_page' => 10,

  ) );

  $postids = Array();

  if ($upcoming->have_posts()) :

  while ($upcoming->have_posts()) :

    $upcoming->the_post();

    $thisid = get_the_ID();

    if ( !in_array($thisid, $postids)) :

      array_push( $postids, $thisid);

    if( !tribe_is_recurring_event() ) continue; ?>

<article class="event-snippet <?php $terms_as_text = strip_tags( get_the_term_list( $all_events->post->ID, 'tribe_events_cat', '', ' ', '' ) ); echo $terms_as_text; ?>">

  <a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>">

  <h1><?php the_title(); ?></h1>

  <p><?php echo tribe_get_recurrence_text(); ?><br/>

  </a>

</article>

<?php endif; endwhile; endif; ?>

To be clear, let’s say you have three reoccurring events for a baseball league’s calendar: Practice, Games and Meetings. You want to have a list of all three of those events, but not a list of each and every occurrence of each event, this code does the trick.
