You will have a page that lists your upcoming shows, their categories, or a search box that opens the Shows page.
Before you start: you need at least one published show with a date still to come, and the permission to edit pages.
Steps
- Open the page in the page builder (Pages, then Design).
- In the left panel open the Box office section and drag in a widget:
- Shows lists shows as cards.
- Show categories lists your categories with how many shows are on sale in each. Each links to the Shows page filtered by that category.
- Show puts one show on the page, for a performer's or a campaign's page: its picture, its next nights (each opens that night on the show page) and a Buy tickets button. Choose the show in the Show list.
- Shows search is a search box (add the category and city lists if you like) that opens the Shows page with the visitor's search.
- Select the widget and set it up on the right. For Shows choose where the shows come from (all upcoming, featured only, one category or one city), the date range, the order, how many, and whether it is a grid, a list or a carousel. Choose the card style and which details a card shows. Turn on View all shows to add a link to the Shows page.
- Click Publish.
What you will see
- A card shows the show's next night that can still be bought, with a badge when it cannot simply be bought (few left, sold out, sales not open yet, closed, postponed) and a Featured badge for shows you marked as featured.
- Dates follow your site's calendar and time zone. In the page builder the date ranges (today, next 7 days, next 30 days) use UTC for the preview; the published page is exact.
- Most popular orders shows by tickets sold in the last 30 days.
If something goes wrong
- «No shows to show»: nothing matches (a draft, a show with no date to come, or a source with nothing in it). Check the source and the date range.
- A show missing from the list: only published shows with a night to come are listed, whatever the widget says.
- A Show widget that has disappeared from the published page: its show was unpublished, deleted or has no night to come. Choose another show, or publish it again.
