[EventCalendar] FW: Show events on HTML homepage

[Tim Schrock]

Sara,

Thanks for the quick reply, but I'm thinking that I may have not explained
myself clearly.  The informational pages we have right now are HTML pages.
>From there, I link to our blog (a subdirectory).  I have it figured out how
to get the htaccess coding and all that such that PHP works in my HTML
files, so we're good there.

I like your website - impressive.  It looks like the whole site is a
WordPress creation?  Mine started out as 5-6 static pages from a
web-designer, and I've been playing with WordPress.

Now, I need to get into the database and pull out the EC posts and put them
on my homepage.  I'm hoping I can include enough template-functions.php
files and just run ec3_get_events(5).

If you care to look, the website is www.wabashvalleynari.org

Tim

I have what I think is what you need, working on the homepage of one  
of my clients.

The code I used was:

<?php
ec3_get_events(
    '2',                               // limit
    '%DATE%: <a href="%LINK%">%TITLE%</a>', // template_event
    ''                                      // template_day
);
?>


The site it's on is at:  http://www.boltfabricboutique.com/ .

Maybe that syntax help is all you needed (ie, get_events, not  
show_events)? Hope so.

Take care.

-Sara
