I asked to him, but he didn’t answer… * There’s some that can help me to get JSON EVENTS LIST? * Thank you * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/) Viewing 11 replies - 1 through 11 (of 11 total) * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030900) * I am not part of support team… * But do have a little experience pulling data from other JSON’s. * Putting my own JSON out is something I have looked at… you might try reading… * [http://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/javascript/provide-a-json-feed-from-your-wordpress-site-using-the-json-api-plugin.html](http://www.htmlgoodies.com/beyond/javascript/provide-a-json-feed-from-your-wordpress-site-using-the-json-api-plugin.html) * Which I believe implies you need a plugin to generate the JSON.. * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/) * Would love to hear how it works out, please keep us informed. * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030901) * WARNING !!!!!

You call up the JSON.. with a link like this… yourwebsite. com/wordpress/wp-json/wp/v2/event * You can paste your JSON file into a website like this to see it better… [http://jsonlint.com/](http://jsonlint.com/) or one of the many others available.. * ** CAUTION !!!! I am doing all this on my Local Development Machine using WP 4.4x * **ALWAYS BACK UP YOUR FILES AND DATABASES.. and know how to FTP to your website** * Pretty cool stuff and hope you have success ! I’ve been up since 2am.. and I am going to have a cheap American beer ! * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030910) * Slight error in above post… Search for the lines that begin with Search for the lines **that have… ‘has_archive’ * and put in after that line… ‘show_in_rest’ => true, * The previous notation was to specific and you will miss some of the ‘has_archive’ lines.. * I think there were three of them. * Thread Starter [fersamp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fersamp/) * (@fersamp) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030934) * hi robswaimea, I have no words to explain how you are kind for all these answer: really, really, really thanks 🙂 * I did all you explain: 1) install plugin [https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/rest-api/) and add lines ‘show_in_rest’ => true in em-posts.php.. * this retrive me a JSON “[https://www.MYSITE.it/wp-json/wp/v2/posts”](https://www.MYSITE.it/wp-json/wp/v2/posts”); but “[https://www.MYSITE.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event”](https://www.MYSITE.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event”); not. * I have this message: {“code”:”rest_no_route”,”message”:”Nessun percorso fornisce una corrispondenza tra l’URL e le modalità di richiesta”,”data”:{“status”:404}} There’s no correspondence between url and modality request. * What could be the problem? thank you again 🙂 * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030940) * `{"code":"rest_no_route","message":"Nessun percorso fornisce una corrispondenza tra l'URL e le modalità di richiesta","data":{"status":404}}` * You need to check if “Events” is even being produced.. * You said “posts” works ? Yes.. * What you need to do is “see” if “Events” is actually created… * Try.. mywordpresswebsite/wp-json/wp/v2/types * When you get the JSON.. I like to put it in a viewer like.. [http://jsonlint.com/](http://jsonlint.com/) * Just makes it easier to read… * That should output all the available JSONS ie Posts.. Pages…Attachment, * And thus you **should also** see… The same for Events, Locations, Event-recurring… just like Post, Pages, Attachments…. Looks something like this… * ``` "event": { "description": "Display events on your blog.", "hierarchical": false, "name": "Events", "slug": "event", etc, etc, etc, etc.... ``` * I am new to Output JSON… my experience is from “pulling” JSON. * Hope you get it worked out.. * But if you get something for Posts.. then it should work for Events. * Thread Starter [fersamp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fersamp/) * (@fersamp) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7030999) * OMG It works, really really thanks 🙂 * This code works for me: * [http://www.dayroma.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event](http://www.dayroma.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event) * Now that we are JSON Friend, I’d like to ask you: can you help to add new routes to REST API? * I tried to follow the guide, but it doesn’t work this: * ``` function my_awesome_func( $data ) { $posts = get_posts( array( 'author' => $data['id'], ) ); if ( empty( $posts ) ) { return null; } return $posts[0]->post_title; } \d+)', array( 'methods' => 'GET', 'callback' => 'my_awesome_func', ) ); } ); ``` * I put this code to functions.php in my child theme, Is it wrong? * I would like to get events filtered by date (today, tomorrow, or other), can you help me to understand the way? * YOU ARE SO KIND 🙂 * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7031005) * `Now that we are JSON Friend` * You haven’t even bought me a beer yet ! Just kidding… Glad you got it worked out ! * I looked at your main site.. and it is beautiful ! We are both doing entertainment, music, festivals.. that’s cool ! * My brain is all mushy right now.. and all scrambled as I was working hard on some other JSON and XML stuff.. I can hardly see straight 🙂 * As to your direct question.. I really can’t make any knowledge of it… It looks like it pertains more to the the Rest Api Plugin.. * I am not very familiar with WordPress and Output API (JSON)… So pulling it back in… and making it work I don’t know. * Everything I do is pulling in API JSON, converting it to XML… And thusly… my inexperience with your project. * `I tried to follow the guide, but it doesn't work this:.......` * BUT… I’d look at how you write these lines… `'author' => $data['id'],` and..` return $posts[0]->post_title;` * those appear to be your “filters”… I would try and research info on that. * I am not sure this will help… but looking at the “structure” of you API JSON might give you a clue… * So take your your [http://www.dayroma.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event](http://www.dayroma.it/wp-json/wp/v2/event) and paste it into [http://codebeautify.org/jsonviewer](http://codebeautify.org/jsonviewer) In the middle of the page use the button “JSON to XML” to convert it to XML…. * Maybe this will give you ideas with… * ``` function my_awesome_func( $data ) { $posts = get_posts( array( 'author' => $data['id'], ``` * And if you do resolve the issue it would be wonderful if you shared your knowledge. * Have a great a weekend ! * [Robswaimea](https://wordpress.org/support/users/robswaimea/) * (@robswaimea) * [10 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/get-json-events-list/#post-7031006) * If you are saying the code you put in above… “Broke” your website… * Take out the line… * `
