In WordPress, I want to list events like concerts at Madison Square Garden or Radio City Music Hall.
Let’s say I input this data in the backend (wp-admin)
Concert 1
Date
Time
Madison Square Garden
Concert 2
Date
Time
Radio City Music Hall
In another section I want to have the Venues listed
Madison Square Garden
1000 New York Drive
New York, New York 00823

Radio City Music Hall
101 Radio Hall Drive
Manhatten, New York 00234
http://rcmh.com
When I list the Concerts in the front end, I want to also show the address
So my question is…
How do I reference the Venue info in the input (from a select box)
Then how to I bring in all of the location data?
Is there a post or doc that already outlines this scenario?
I’m basically looking for a foreign key to the venues list.
Hi @dhobson98
No worries. This kind of connection can be made with the post_object field.
For each Concert, you need a post_object field to select a ‘location’.
Then when you are rendering the HTML for your concert, just load in the location post object based on it’s ID.
You can find examples for this here:
