Good evening Michelle and welcome back!

Thank you for reaching out to us.

We are sorry to hear about the issue you have faced while trying to create a new widget with a filter. I would love to help you with this topic.

There is currently a bug with the list widget, more specifically with the ability to add filters in it.
We do apologize for the inconvenience this is causing.

Unfortunately, I cannot commit to a release date at this point. But stay tuned, you will be contacted when the fix is released.

In the meantime, there is a workaround:

1. Unless your theme supports shortcodes in the text widgets, download and install the following plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/shortcode-widget/
2. Use a shortcode widget and enter the appropriate shortcode with the desired filters: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/pro-widget-shortcodes/

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.
