    Sorry for the likely repeat question, but I’m trying to create an event under a specific category (eg upcoming-events) and then display that as one of the blog categories on the home page. I know I can use a shortcode to display the image/event name etc, but I want something a bit more than this – i want to include the image, event title, a short description and allow a “read more” (similar to the enclosed snapshot) to go to the main content for that event. Is that possible?

    Hi Nic.

    The Events Categories are the “tribe_events_cat” taxonomy, while the blog posts Categories are the “category” taxonomy.

    If you want to display posts from specific “tribe_events_cat” and “category” taxonomies together, you’ll need to create your own query. You can reference WP_Query and/or tribe_get_events. You might also be able to find a plugin (possibly this one or this one — third-party, not guaranteed or supported by us) that can do this querying for you.

    If you need some coding help, you may want to ask your developer or reference our documentation and list of known customizers.
