Welcome to the cno-plugin-events wiki!

Based (loosely) off The Events Calendar, but without all the bells & whistles bloat.

Here's a quick overview of what's going on:

• This plugin uses 1 CPT, Events, to handle event posts, alongside ACF Pro and Bootstrap.
• Registers 2 Image sizes: choctaw-events-preview and choctaw-events-single
• It gives you the "Add to Calendar" JS logic for free!
• Comes with a JSON file for adding "Venues" taxonomy and ACF classes to the Event (not installed by default).
• This plugin uses the ChoctawNation\Events namespace to prevent naming conflicts, and you should see both "ChoctawNation" as a @package tag and "Events" as a @subpackage in the files' header comment blocks.
• This plugin, like others, is initialized with the Plugin_Loader class.

Image Sizes:

Both image sizes are registered as 2x, 16:9 sizes.

• choctaw-events-preview registers 1392x784
• choctaw-events-single registers 2592x1458

Dependencies

This plugin assumes the following are already loaded in a theme:

• Bootstrap
• ACF (Pro)

The Post Types

• Inits cpt (events) with prefix (choctaw-events).
• Adds the Events to default WordPress search query
• Inits templates (archive and single) with a template part for the post preview.
• Templates can be overriden in theme folder.
  • Files must be located at theme/templates/choctaw-file-name.php where "file-name" matches the files in the plugin's templates folder

The Plugin Logic/Loader Classes (an overview)

• Each class calls its parent with require_once
• The final class Plugin_Loader:
  • Calls a parent::__construct() because it's grandparent, Post_Type_Builder requires it.
    • The grandparent class checks if ACF is installed and throws an error if its not (and also kills PHP).
  • Calls all filters and action callback functions, even though they may be defined in a (grand)parent class.
