exposing event template to views
July 23, 2013, 04:54:39 pm
Hi,
I have the need to create standard event descriptions.   Ie, every month we have event 101, 102 and 103.   So I have created a description for each event, 101, 102, and 103 in three separate event templates .   I would like to display these descriptions in a view, but event template is currently not available in views.  Is there a way I can expose event templates to views?

I think you would have to use PHP code in your View template to get the CiviCRM event template file. Then you would have to process it as it's Smarty code. Not simple, but probably doable.

Alternatively, perhaps you could store the text in Drupal nodes and then load it from there in both places, i.e. the View and the CiviCRM event templates.

You might want to take a look at the civicrm views integration code and potentially add support for event templates there
