Tell us what you are trying to do?
Hi I'm using WP Event Manager plugin to handle some of my events. Through Toolset I created a relationship (many to many) with the Posts thinking that an Event might correlate with several Posts. This relationship works great in the backend, however, it misses the front-end part. For example, when visiting an Event the user should see the related Posts (manually selected). The WP Event Manager plugin offers a quite beautiful template to present each Event and I was wondering if I can append to this template a Toolset view to present just a single table with the related Posts without creating everything from the beginning.

Thank you in advance

Hi Paris,

Thank you for getting in touch.

This is possible to do if you were to modify the template itself that the plugin is using to render the template for the events.

When I did a check on my end with the same plugin, I found the template at Plugin -> Plugin Editor -> WP Event Calendar-> Templates -> content-single-event_listing.php

If you were to modify this template then you could append the view to the template but your changes will be lost anytime the plugin is updated.
You can use the function below to render the view using the php template.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
