JoEWhat I'm Trying To Do:
Pull the last part of a URL to run against a switch statement to customize the query for my page-month.php page. Example URL: http://domain.com/month/june
Then I will have page-month.php render the events for June, July, August, etc. Figured it was easier to setup a "month" page, instead of a page for every month.
How It's Setup:
Using a custom post type for all events.
I've got my homepage working correctly to check if it's the current month
<?php
$today_month = date('n', time());
$today_year = date('Y', time());
$args = array(
"post_type" => "events",
"orderby" => "meta_value_num",
"meta_key" => "_cal_start_date",
"order" => "ASC"
);
if($recent = new WP_Query($args)): $x=0;
while($recent->have_posts()) : $recent->the_post();
if($today_month == date('n',get_post_meta($post->ID, '_cal_start_date', true))):
include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/includes/entry.php');
endif;
endwhile; ?>...if there's a better way, I'd love to know. Just need a way to search by the custom _cal_start_date meta field, per page, and the easiest way I thought of was being able to pull out the month name from the URL and customize my query from there. Thanks in advance.
