Event in latest posts

Hi,

is it possible to somehow have the newly created event appear also in list of latest posts?

My workflow is as follows:
1. Enter event (which is not repeating)
2. Have it available in list of events on dedicated events page and also visible on sidebar
3. However, I would also like the event to appear in latest posts (which my page showing to provide all the news)

Thanks!

at the moment you need custom coding to make this work and maybe this snippet can help you get started as we are quite limited with regards to custom coding


function my_em_wp_query(){
	$args = array(
		'post_type' => 'event',
		'posts_per_page' => 100,
		'meta_query' => array( 'key' => '_start_ts', 'value' => current_time('timestamp'), 'compare' => '>=', 'type'=>'numeric' ),
		'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
		'order' => 'ASC',
		'meta_key' => '_start_ts',
		'meta_value' => current_time('timestamp'),
		'meta_value_num' => current_time('timestamp'),
		'meta_compare' => '>='
	);

	// The Query
	$query = new WP_Query( $args );

	// The Loop
	while($query->have_posts()):
	$query->next_post();
	$id = $query->post->ID;
	echo '<li>';
	echo get_the_title($id);
	echo ' - '. get_post_meta($id, '_event_start_date', true);
	echo '</li>';
	endwhile;

	// Reset Post Data
	wp_reset_postdata();
}
add_shortcode('em_wp_query','my_em_wp_query');
