option to show only events by location / category / Venue

[Morgaine]

I was wondering if the pro version offers an option at the top of the calendar to display events by category assigned (in the add new event page)
I would LOVE it if it would automatically show all events, then the browser could have the option to select from the drop down menu – show only “X” events…. or view all….hopefully this makes sense.

I would also like to see this, with a look similar to the drop-down of each month in the year on the Calendar “Gridview.php” page.

I agree, awesome feature request.

Hello all, although this feature is not inherent in the calendar (but is a very popular request, so it may be included in the next big release, but we don’t know when), we do have some options that can help:

If you visit our tutorials page, look under “Queries, Categories, Tags & Event Loops” and you will see some tutorials on how to display categories creatively: https://theeventscalendar.com/the-events-calendar-for-wordpress-tutorials/

We also have an advanced widget that can display upcoming events from only one category. You could use this and keep adding the widget to the sidebar for different categories, though I know this is not a very finesse solution.

Another thing you could do is use WordPress custom menus to create a sidebar menu leading to the different categories of events.

Hope this helps!
