## Description

**Events as Posts** is a simple plugin that allows you to post events as if they
were normal posts, but with added fields like date, time and location.

It also allows you to display **lists of events** everywhere on your site using 
a shortcode. You can choose if you want to display future, past or all the events,
and also the number of events and of which category.

## Installation

**Installation via WordPress**

 1. Go to the menu ‘Plugins’ -> ‘Install’ and search for ‘Events as Posts’
 2. Click ‘Install’

**Manual Installation**

 1. Upload ‘events-as-posts’ directory to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. Go to ‘Events’ -> ‘Add event’ in the admin menu to publish your events
 4. Go to ‘Events’ -> ‘Settings’ in the admin menu to create a shortcode for a list
    of events and add styles to it

## FAQ

  When I choose to display events by category they are not showing

Double check that you have written the category name correctly and, if you have 
more than one category, that you have separated them with a comma.

  I chose to display the excerpt in a list of events and it’s showing in all the
lists, how can it be?

The setting that allows you to show the excerpt on lists of events is not related
to the shortcode and if selected it will show the excerpt on all the lists.

  Can I change the order of how events on the list are displayed?

Yes, just add to the shortcode `order="ASC"` for ascendent order or `order="DESC"`
for descendent order.

  Using events’ metadata with other plugins

Use the following meta keys:

 * eap_from_day: starting date of the event ( Y-m-d format )
 * eap_from_day_custom_format: starting date of the event ( settings’ format )
 * eap_from_time: starting time of the event ( H:i format )
 * eap_from_time_custom_format: starting time of the event ( settings’ format )
 * eap_until_day: ending date of the event ( Y-m-d format )
 * eap_until_day_custom_format: ending date of the event ( settings’ format )
 * eap_until_time: ending time of the event ( H:i format )
 * eap_until_time_custom_format: ending time of the event ( settings’ format )
 * eap_location: location of the event
 * eap_link_location: link to event’s location
 * eap_city: event’s city
 * eap_country: event’s country
 * eap_add_info: additional information about the event

If you’re going to use ‘M’ or ‘F’ as a date format for the month, which display 
the month in letters (short and long form), the month name will be stored in the
database in the language of the user who created or updated the event.
