Events URLs and Categories

[Max]

Dear Support,

I have three questions:

1) I noticed that now we can add event categories, but I am struggling to see if it’s possible to add categories to URLs to land directly to each event category and its events:
http://www.domain.com/events/music
http://www.domain.com/events/theatre

2) If that’s possible, would it be also possible to have the category as part fo the single template e.g.
http://www.domain.com/event/music/event-title

3) How do I echo the event category(s) when inside the loop?

Thanks for your support,

Max

Hey Max,

1. Any of your event categories will be accessible via: http://www.yoururl.com/{events_slug}/category/{category_slug}/ – you can create links to these from the WordPress custom menus pages or manually.

2. Unfortunately this is not easy to do. For now I would suggest trying to rewrite your URL’s via PHP, plugin or .htaccess if you need this…

3. If you need to echo all categories you could use something like:

$terms = get_terms("tribe_events_cat");
$count = count($terms);
if ( $count > 0 ){
echo "";
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
echo "slug . "'>" . $term->name . "";

}
echo "";
}


I hope that helps but let me know if you need anything else.

Cheers,
Jonah
