Example: courses and events

A training company runs a two-day first aid course in six cities, several times a year. Each date in each city needs a page with the venue, the start time, the price and a registration button, so people find first aid course Milan and can sign up for a specific date. The same setup suits workshops, events, guided tours and webinars.

• /first-aid-milan-2026-11/, /first-aid-turin-2026-12/, … — one page per course date
• /first-aid-course/ — a normal page about the course, with a list of upcoming dates

Only what differs per date

The course programme, the learning goals and the certificate are the same for every date. They go in the template’s design, not in properties. Only what changes from one date to the next becomes a property:

Property	Type	Code	Example value
Title	Title	title	First aid course in Milan, November 2026
URL	URL / Slug	href	milan-2026-11
City	Text field	city	Milan
Venue	Text field	venue	Congress centre Milano Nord
Venue address	Textarea	address	Via Roma 4 20121 Milan
Starts	Date and time (Pro)	start	2026-11-12 09:00
Dates	Text field	dates	Thursday 12 and Friday 13 November, 9:00–16:30
Price	Number	price	395
Trainer	Text field	trainer	Marco Bianchi
Availability	Text field	places	4 places left
Registration link	URL	register	this date in your registration system

A second course, such as Fire safety refresher, gets a template of its own: its programme and design differ, and its dates live in their own table.

Title and address

• Template title: @code_title_650@
• Href: /first-aid-@code_href_650@

Put the city and the month in the URL value (milan-2026-11), so the next Milan course gets an address of its own. RowSprout warns you when two rows would get the same address.

The page, section by section

1. Header: an H1 First aid course in Milan, the dates, and a Register button.
2. Course details: a box with the venue and address, the trainer, the price and the availability.
3. Programme: what you learn on each day (fixed text in the template).
4. Certificate and FAQ: fixed text in the template.
5. Other dates: a list of every upcoming date, in every city.

Block editor

• Header: a Heading (H1) First aid course in @code_city_650@, a Paragraph bound to Dates, and a Button with its link bound to Registration link.
• Course details: a Group block with a Paragraph @code_venue_650@, a Paragraph bound to Venue address, and Paragraphs such as Trainer: @code_trainer_650@, €@code_price_650@ per person, excl. VAT and one bound to Availability.
• Programme, Certificate and FAQ: normal blocks with fixed text: a List, a Details block per question.
• Other dates: the Grid block with this template, Layout List.

Elementor

• Header: Elementor’s Heading with First aid course in @code_city_650@, the Date widget (Pro) set to Starts, with Text before Starts on and Show time on, and the RowSprout Button widget with Link property Registration link.
• Course details: an Icon List with items such as @code_venue_650@, Trainer: @code_trainer_650@ and €@code_price_650@ per person, excl. VAT, plus the Textarea widget for Venue address and the Heading widget (H4) for Availability, with Fallback text Places available.
• Programme, Certificate and FAQ: Elementor’s own widgets with fixed text, such as an Accordion for the FAQ.
• Other dates: the Grid widget.

WPBakery

• Header: a Custom Heading First aid course in @code_city_650@, a Text Block @code_dates_650@ and a Button with the link @code_register_650@.
• Course details: a Text Block with the venue, trainer, price and availability as tokens. Use a Text field per address line, since a token puts a Textarea value in as one line.
• Programme, Certificate and FAQ: WPBakery’s own elements with fixed text.
• Other dates: the Grid element.

Tip

The Dates Text field and the Starts date look like doubles, but they do different jobs: the text describes the course days the way people read them, and the Date and time property can be formatted by the Date widget and drives the planning below. Without Pro, keep only the text.

The course page and its list of dates

The normal page First aid course describes the course and lists the dates with a Grid of this template. The Grid sorts by title (Alphabetical (A-Z) or (Z-A)) or not at all; with No sorting, the pages are generally listed in the order you added the rows. Add new dates in date order and choose No sorting, and the list stays chronological.

A list of every course on one page is a Grid per course template, each under its own heading.

Publish dates weeks in advance

The company plans its courses a year ahead, but wants each date online eight weeks before it starts, not all at once. With RowSprout Pro:

1. Add all dates of the year as rows.

2. Set the Save action to Schedule page updates and save. Nothing is generated.

3. On the Planning tab, give each row its go-live moment, such as 17 September 2026, 08:00 for the course of 12 November. For many rows at once, Auto-fill… fills in dates for a selection of rows at the pace you choose; review them, then click Save planning.

Each page is generated, and appears in the Grid, shortly after its moment. Under RowSprout → Throttling you can also limit generation to a time window, such as nights, so the pages appear outside busy hours.

After the course

• Update the availability as people sign up: change the Availability value and save with Create & update pages. With RowSprout Pro’s Smart Generate, only that date’s page is regenerated.
• Remove past dates: delete the row and save. The page is removed and leaves the Grid. If the page has built up visitors or links, keep it a little longer with the availability set to This course has taken place — see the next dates below.
