This tutorial forms part of our series of tutorials for creating an custom add-on for Events Manager called “Styles”, where we will be able to select from a list of styles during event registration. In our previous tutorial, we had added some php to save extra event information during event registration.
In this tutorial, we'll be adding a new admin page which resides under the Events admin menu. This in fact only requires WordPress functions and filters and has little to do with interacting with Events Manager itself. We're simply creating a way to create and store 'styles' so we can reference that data later on in our events and event searches.

We're continuing our series of tutorials for our creating our own custom add-on called "Styles" by creating a custom page that will dynamically display a list of all available Styles and upcoming events associated with it. We had previously integrated our styles add-on with Events Manager's MultiSite Globlal Tables Mode.
Warning: This series of tutorials was designed to help developers and designers learn how to make common modifications and understand some of the possibilities in Events Manager. We assume here that you already know your way around Wordpress and some basic knowledge of PHP.
In our previous tutorial in this series we created a custom placeholder for our "Styles" example add-on for Events Manager. We will now do something similar but with a very different purpose, add CONDITIONAL placeholders for our events.

One of the best things about Wordpress is how easy it is to modify and extend with plugins and themes. Moreover, it lets you modify wordpress even further by letting you modify the modification that modifies wordpress! That's a lot of flexibility, and more than often leaves you with more than one approach to things. A common question is where to put small snippets of PHP that make small modifications to other plugins, such as Events Manager. There's three recommended ways, each have their pros and cons:
Some default placeholders can be directly modified with template files. However, since some placeholders require such small information, it's not worth making every bit of information require a template file.
When users access the events page, Events Manager decides what to show based on the rest of the URL. So, for example, `mysite.com/eventspage/locations/` or `mysite.com?p=x&locations_page=1` would return a list of current locations.
