I am successfully using Events Calendar Pro, Woocommerce Tickets, and Filter Bar add on for my client so they can post events for their customers to sign up for. The question I have is they also have a “Fitness Class” system they want. So basically like zumba you can search for classes. I really want to use this same system, but obviously when I open the events page it shows all “Events”. Is there a way I could make classes the same way I do events, lets say make a seperate link for Searching classes, and when the page loads it loads events with lets say the category “Classes” etc. So it only pulls up classes and not regular events? This would be a HUGE HELP!!! Thanks guys
Barry posted this on another thread and I feel it might work but am not sure how to accomplish it:
“A different approach could be to ensure teachers create these new events and apply a suitable category or tag (like “planning”). With a little customization work you could set these to ordinarily be ignored (such as when the main events page is viewed) and then when they are deliberately viewed at the appropriate URL you could serve a custom template that only displays Fridays and Saturdays”
I figured I would create new events with “Classes” category, but I have been trying to not show these in the default Events page with no success. Also trying to get another page to load the events calendar with showing only these categories with no avail. If someone could shoot me some quick code to point me in the right direction. Or I know its not an addon, but I am completely willing to pay for this solution, it would complete my site! Here is a link to what I have currently created for the customer:

Any help would be great! I love the plugins and really need to get this class page going for Classes only. Thanks!!! I would love you guys forever. I’ll even buy another plugin just to get this solution haha.
Hello jokesonme,
Here’s a tutorial that might help you with your customization https://theeventscalendar.com/queries-and-pagination/
What you want to do might be accomplished using the Filterbar and special urls, but I’m not sure if you would be able to hide the other filters appropriately. Maybe if you used css to hide the ‘category’ filter on certain pages, and that way the calendar would appear to be more specialized?
Does this make sense? Let me know if this doesn’t work for you.

I understand the code from the first link of customization but I am not sure if that would help me. I was wondering if this would work (would just need the right direction for it to happen).
I am currently displaying my events in List Mode: http://23.235.209.204/~isolat7/BooiakaWP/?post_type=tribe_events. I was wondering, if I could replicate the template for this page (not sure which file that would be), and duplicate the php file it calls on to load all of the “events”. And edit it using the ‘tribe_get_events()‘ so that it only gets and displays the events with the Category or Tags Classes? Instead of just all posts? Basically I want to make a duplicate of the current events page but only show the type of event by a specific category or tag or anything that would work.
That’s beyond my expertise currently, and that level of customization goes beyond the scope of the forums.
I’d love to give you a push in the right direction though! I’ll contact a dev to see if I can get more info. Might have to wait till Monday though.
Cheers!

Hello jokesonme,
After talking with the devs,by far the easiest approach is to set a ‘classes’ category and leverage that url to create another calendar. In a template override, you could manipulate the view of the calendar based on the category.
Does that make sense? Let me know if that doesn’t work for you.
Cheers!
