Events Manager – Events / Locations Slider

March 10, 2022

Events Manager – Events / Locations Slider Plugin

Create a dynamic Slider (carousel or fade) for Events and Locations with the default Events Manager arguments, using a simple shortcode.

Requires Events Manager (free plugin) to be installed & activated.

This add-on lets you create a slider (carousel or fade) for your upcoming Events Manager events and/or locations. It work just like as EM’s native [events_list], but will show the content in a slider instead of a list. You can use the exact same parameters as you are already used to in Events Manager.
[events_slider scope=”future” category=”3″]

It supports all native Events Manager features:
If it works in EM, it should work in this slider as well. 🙂

  • Supports all native Events Manager search arguments
  • Supports Event Placeholders and Location Placeholders
  • Supports full HTML formatting
  • MultiSite compatible: [events_slider blog=”all”]

The plugin core is based on bxSlider.

Support is technical.
I make it work, you make it pretty.
