Instant craft beer festival support for breweries, sponsors, and food vendors

Description

This plugin makes running a craft beer festival website easy with WordPress. Maintain lists of breweries, sponsors, and food vendors in the WordPress dashboard. Each of these entities can be categorized by year, so displaying a list or photo grid of this year's breweries is as easy as listing any other year.

This shortcode creates a grid of featured images attached to your attendees:

[jockey_box_grid object="brewery" years="2017"]

...and works just as easily like so...

[jockey_box_grid object="sponsor" years="2016,2015"]

TODO

  • Formalize the dependency on Advanced Custom Fields
  • Add menu links to the admin bar

  • The Advanced Custom Fields configuration is now built into this plugin
  • This code is now GPLv3

2.0.0

  • Introduces a custom taxonomy for years attended, allowing both management of who is coming this year, and an archive that preserves the history

  • Provides a shortcode to display a single sponsor logo via [jockey_box_sponsor_logo id="4444"] where 4444 is the sponsor's post ID
