[Plugin: Events Manager] Use Custom Taxonomies

    I’m trying to use custom taxonomies to categorize my events and recurring events. I already have a plugin that detects events/recurring-events as Custom Post Types so they’re easy to assign. The metaboxes already show up on the Edit Event screen. The taxonomy information is saved along with the event/recurring event.
    However, I’d like to retrieve that taxonomy information and place it in a placeholder.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    I figured it out. Thanks.

    function my_em_custom_placeholders($replace, $EM_Event, $result){
	global $wp_query, $wp_rewrite;
	switch( $result ){
		case '#_CITY':
			$replace = 'none';
			$cities = get_the_terms($EM_Event->post_id, 'city');
			if( is_array($cities) && count($cities) > 0 ){
				$cities_list = array();
				foreach($cities as $city){
					$link = get_term_link($city->slug, 'city');
					if ( is_wp_error($link) ) $link = '';
					$cities_list[] = '<a href="'. $link .'">'. $city->name .'</a>';
				}
				$replace = implode(', ', $cities_list);
			}

			break;
		case '#_LOCATION':
			$replace = 'none';
			$locations = get_the_terms($EM_Event->post_id, 'location');
			if( is_array($locations) && count($locations) > 0 ){
				$locations_list = array();
				foreach($locations as $location){
					$link = get_term_link($location->slug, 'location');
					if ( is_wp_error($link) ) $link = '';
					$locations_list[] = '<a href="'. $link .'">'. $location->name .'</a>';
				}
				$replace = implode(', ', $locations_list);
			}

			break;
	}
	return $replace;
}
add_filter('em_event_output_placeholder','my_em_custom_placeholders',1,3);
