Add Venue Categories to Menu Bar

[Steve]

Hi there,
I have added to my functions.php:
function run_init() {
register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘tribe_events_cat’, ‘tribe_venue’);
}
add_action(‘init’,’run_init’);
which enables venue categories.
However, I still can’t find a way to add the venue categories to the menu bar. Any ideas/help/advice?
Many thanks in advance for help

Do you mean a navigation menu or the admin menu bar that displays at the top when you’re logged in?

OK, so you’re using Event Categories here (if I’m understanding you correctly) … are you unable to see a metabox listing those categories on the Appearance > Menus admin page?

If so, can you use the Screen Options pulldown and ensure that Event Categories has been checked?

[Steve]

No, I’m talking about venue categories (added to function.php file.
thanks

I think we’re talking at cross-purposes slightly. You’ve registered an existing taxonomy – event categories – so that they can be used with venues. So if you want to add them to your menu you should be able to do so by the means I described.

You won’t actually see the venues if you follow those links, however, without further work.

Ok. Right. Then do you know Barry how I might go about registering a new taxonomy- venue categories- that can be used with venues and then be able to add them to my menu?
Many thanks, and appreciation for your patience!
