Purchase PRO or Filter bar

[Hermine Masmeyer]

I am using the free version of the events calendar. I wish to use an extra functionality to make it possible for participants to check for workshops for their category through out the year. For example: 4 timer per year I will organise a workshops especially for lawyers. If they filter on the category ‘workshops for lawyers’ I want them to see all workshops (which will be held in april, june, september and november) on one page. I am not sure if you Filter Bar includes that possibility, or if I should purchase the PRO version. Hope you van advice me on that.

kind regards,
Hermine

Hey Hermine,

Thanks for reaching out!

The features you describe, where users click on a category to filter by that category, are NOT provided by Events Calendar Pro. Filter Bar is the best plugin of ours for this; you can install it on your site alongside The Events Calendar—you do not need Events Calendar Pro to use it!—and then once installed, it will offer the sort of category filtering you describe.

To see these filters in action, I would recommend exploring our demo site a bit: http://wpshindig.com/events

While things on that events page like the Map View and Photo View are only possible within Events Calendar Pro, the basic filters that I highlighted in this screenshot with an arrow are what come “out of the box” with Filter Bar:

So, check out the demo page and play around with those filters, and let me know if there’s anything else I can help with!

Sincerely,
George
