Replacing Location with Trainer

    Hi,

    I am looking to create a directory for a network of trainers that each provide a series of business courses.

    The standard functionality that I want to provide is as follows:

    • Visitors will be able to display a list of trainers, and by clicking on one, they will see a trainer profile and a list of all courses that they offer.
    • Clients will be able to display a list of course categories, and by clicking on one, see all courses offered within that category.

    I’ve not been able to find a plug-in that does what I want, so I was wondering if anyone had experience in using the Events Manager functionality in other ways?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks in advance.

    maybe you can used location as trainer? and then just change the formattings at Settings > Formatting > Locations

    Aside from Angelo’s suggestion, there’s a few ways to approach this, some easier than others.

    For example you could create a new custom taxonomy for events that contain all the trainers. You could then use shortcode to display a list of events for each trainer. Probably easiest way but not optimal if you have many or changing numbers of trainers.

    Assign ownerships of events to each relevant trainer, and with PHP output a list of your trainer users and then display events belonging to each trainer.

    Try the posts 2 posts plugin, and associate a CPT called ‘trainers’ with our ‘event’ CPT.
