Need to show Event Category in list, photo and month-view

How can I show a events attached category?

[Barry]

Hi! You should find that it is displayed on the single event page – here’s an example: http://wpshindig.com/event/portland-wordpress-meetup/2013-10-28/

Does that help?

No, it doesn’t, as I was asking to view it in list view.. You need to give the visitors a chance to see the category before they click into the single event.

Ah I see – I misunderstood first time round. So one technique would be to add a snippet like this one to your theme’s functions.php file – the advantage being, you can have a single snippet responsible for adding event categories to all the different places you want to add them to – and that would make it easier to maintain/update in the future.

Alternatively you could override and customize individual templates (in the case of list view for example you might do so with list/single-event.php).

I hope that helps – and do check out our Themer’s Guide (link over in the right under Useful Resources) if you are unfamiliar with the customization process.

Thanks!
