Christian, if you’re looking for the individual category slugs the following code will get them for you.

function getCategorySlugs() {
$terms = get_terms("tribe_events_cat");
$slugs = array();
foreach ($terms as $term) {
$slugs[] = $term->slug;
}
return $slugs;
}

Thank you for your answer but thats not what i mean!

What i need is the id or slug of the default “events” Category, cause i need to add a special css class to this.
i.e.:
events <<- default event Category, what is the id or slug that i can use for the if statement? Thats important!
–Musik <<- Subcategory
–Dance <<- Subcategory

Thx, so long. Christian

argh.. how can i embed code?
if ( is_category( slug or id ) ) {
// add cc class
}

[Andy Fragen]

Sorry Christian. It might be easier to start with what you are trying to accomplish.

There is no “default” events category, nor does it appear that an uncategorized event have any specific CSS class or id associated with it. If this is what you’re looking for you might put it in as a feature request. In the mean time you could create an “Uncategorized” category and assign your uncategorized events to that. Then they would have a .cat_uncategorized CSS class.

Hy Andy, thanks for your trys but i think you dont understand what i need?
check this: http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags

There must be a Page or Category for this. It works like this:
if you are on a page or category with the id 17 or slug xyz you can put in code that affects the website only on this given ID/slug. Thats what i need.

the default category of TEC is in my case “events” where all events are listed. you add the default category in the Settings of TEC.

BUT: it looks like TEC doesnt work with standard WordPress Categorys?!
The Slug wont work with the WordPress Function. i tried: if is_tribe_event that broke the site.
i´m not very familar with coding php. i can read and modify it..

I think what you may need is a list for the conditional tags. It was compiled by Jonah.
