Low Upcoming Events

Rick Smith 15 Jul 2014 18:14 question, complete

Hello,

I'm trying to show upcoming events based on the title of a training course. The idea is having an individual page with the course description and upcoming events for that particular course. How would I go about doing that. I have Low Events and Low Search. Thanks!

   Depending on how your setup is, you could use the Low Events Entries tag and a search:some_field="=some title" parameter to get only the events where the some_field field equals "some title".
   
   Otherwise, if you're using a relationship field, you could use the Low Search Results tag using the Relationships filter and the Low Events parameters on the Results tag.

   Thanks for there quick reply. Unfortunately, I am having a hard time getting this work since I am searching a Playa ({sp_course_name}) field.
   
   Here's what I have:
   
   
<h2>Upcoming Events</h2>

{exp:low_search:results query="{segment_3}" limit="10" channel="training_schedule"}

<h3>{sp_course_name}{s_course_name}{/sp_course_name}</h3>
<strong>{sp_city}{title}{/sp_city}</strong>
<p>
{if s_dates:one_day == 'y'}
{s_dates:end_date format="%M %j, %Y"}
{if:else}
{s_dates:start_date format="%M %j"} - {s_dates:end_date format="%M %j, %Y"}
{/if}</p>
{/exp:low_search:results}

   
   Can you help tell which parameters/filters need to be plugged into the low_search:results tag?
   
   Thanks!

   You can just hard-code the parameters in the Results tag, and omit the query="" parameter, since you're not submitting a form to get the entries.
   
   You'll need the Relationships filter and the low_events:param parameters.
   
   I also offer an Implementation Aid service, if you'd like to get it done by myself.
