how should I use Jeo on this?

[vjpixel]

hi!

I'm planning a site that the main focus is projects. since some of this projects happen in events, I want to have a event list page in the site.

my question is: it's better to use Jeo for the whole site or to create one site and one hotsite that gets content from the events database and list?

thank you!

Since JEO is simple theme with lots of tools behind it, I'd recommend developing your own child theme to attend your purposes.

I'm not sure I got the "events" part right, but there's a JEO child theme for events, developed for Feira de Trocas project

so I understand that the better approach is to create a child theme in Jeo that the default post type is not mapped, right?

That's a way to go.
You can hook the "mapable" post types with the jeo_mapped_post_types filter.

Defaults are all public post types registered, excluding pages.

Example:

function my_custom_mapped_post_type($post_types) {
  $post_types = array('event'); // Only my custom post type
  return $post_types
}
add_filter('jeo_mapped_post_types', 'my_custom_mapped_post_type');
