Understanding shortcodes & display

I don’t understand how to display a full fixture list. I have created all the matches my team will be playing this season, but how do I display these on a ‘Fixtures’ page (not a calendar)?

Hi @terrymm ,

You can use the event_list shortcode. For more info please see below:

Thanks,

Thnx, yes I see event_list and event_block (not sure of the difference, they seem to present in the same way), but I was looking for a tabular display. (To be honest, the way all other clubs seem to present their fixtures.)

The other thing I don’t quite get is if I wish to use a short code such as event_list to display just one event, it needs an ID, but where does this come from?

Any thoughts?

Hi @terrymm,

We’re building a new website for our local club so can hopefully help …

If you look at the page below, the “Next Match” is an event_block. The “FIXTURES & RESULTS” are an event_list.

https://www.hornchurchfc.com/teams/first-team/fixtures-results/

The ID is the ID of the calendar. If you get a list of your calendars on screen and hover over one of them, the URL will show at the bottom of the screen with the value post=xxx”. xxx is the Id.
But you shouldn’t need this – just add the calendar using the short code from your text module.
