Removing category from List Views BUT NOT from users My Events view

[jussibr]

HI there –

I have been using the following code in my functions.php file to remove an event category from my main upcoming events view. The events are is still visible on the site when accessed directly by the category link. It works well except that it also seems to be removing these events from being listed on the ‘My Events’ page that a user sees when logged in. So users think the events have not been published. Is there a way to configure the code so that the events are still shown on the My Events page?

Thanks!

/*
 * The Events Calendar Remove Events from Month and List Views
 * add coding to theme's functions.php
 * @version 3.12
 * modify here with event category slugs: array( 'concert', 'convention' )
*/
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'tribe_exclude_events_category_month_list' );
function tribe_exclude_events_category_month_list( $query ) {

	if ( isset( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] ) && ! is_singular( 'tribe_events' ) ) {

		if ( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'list' && ! is_tax( Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY ) || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'month' && $query->query_vars['post_type'] == Tribe__Events__Main::POSTTYPE && ! is_tax( Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY ) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {

			$query->set( 'tax_query', array(

				array(
					'taxonomy' => Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY,
					'field'    => 'slug',
					'terms'    => array( 'kids-camp-programs', 'kids-programs-and-workshops' ),
					'operator' => 'NOT IN'
				)
			) );
		}

	}

	return $query;
}

Hello jussibr,

Thanks for using our plugins and for reaching out! I’ might be able to help you with this.

You will need to add another conditional statement to check if it is the My Events page or not. The function for it is tribe_is_community_my_events_page(). This does as says, tells you whether you are looking at the My Events page (true) or not (false).

I hope this helps. Let me know how it works out.

Cheers,
Andras

Hi Andras,

Unfortunately writing this code appears to be above my skill level. Is there any way I can get more help with it?

Hey jussibr,

No worries, let’s see how we can work this out.

I tweak the code a tiny bit so that the modified query is NOT run when you are looking at the My Events page.

Check if it helps.

I didn’t understand correctly “still visible on the site when accessed directly by the category link”. Is that good like that or you want to hide them there as well?
