Extract on url to page

Permalink
Hi every one,

I bought the Simple Event add-on and I am wondering if it is possible to extract the ID to the particular event page.

Scenario:
I added an event (via Add Event) as a subpage.
This page was entered in to my DB with the cParentID:152.

On the Calendar presentation page I setup a Event list page.

Now I would like this to work in this way:

At my Event list page, show show text that works as a link to the before mentioned subpage, with the cParentID of 152.

Could this be done somehow?

I tried this, but unsuccessful:

echo '<a href="'.$cParentID. '">' .$title . '</a>';

global $c;
$cParentID = $c->getCollectionParentID();
$title = $c->getCollectionName();
$nh = Loader::helper('navigation');
$p = Page::getByID($cParentID);
$link = $nh->getLinkToCollection($p);
echo '<a href="'.$link.'">'.$title.'</a>';

Hi Chad,

Thanks for the reply, unfortunately it does not do exactly what I wanted.

I created an event: Wine tasting (bID: 159) and (cParentID: 152)

When I am at the Event list page, I would like to show all the events within this Category as defined.

However your submitted code echoes out the danish name for Calendar and when clicked I end up at the same page (Calendar) and not the page intended page (Wine Tasting)....

I put your code here (event_list\view.php)

<div class="linkpage">
                  <?php 
                     global $c;
                     $cParentID = $c->getCollectionParentID();
                     $title = $c->getCollectionName();
                     $nh = Loader::helper('navigation');
                     $p = Page::getByID($cParentID);
                     $link = $nh->getLinkToCollection($p);
                     echo '<a href="'.$link.'">'.$title.'</a>';
                  ?>
               </div>


I would like this to happen:
At Calendar (event_list), I have these entries shown:

Wine Tasting ---> when clicked goes to (bID 159, cParentID 152) Wine Tasting event

Bubbles and chesse ---> when clicked goes to (bID, 160, cParentID 153)
Combining bubbles and Cheese


Hope this helps ;-)
