Shortcode and multiple categories?

[Jane]

Basically I need the following setup, and anyway I try this we run into a different issue that makes us unable to accomplish it however it does sound like it should be doable. We require 2 calendars we have 5 Event Categories.

Calendar one shows Category 1
Calendar two shows Category 2,3,4,5

Originally we had this ticket however it only solves half the issue. It fixes Calendar 1 however we need a way to either hide a category from the main calendar, or include multiple categories on a shortcode to display calendar 2.

Hi Jane,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I’d be happy to help you.

Well, it’s actually not possible to add multiple categories in the shortcode. However, you could create a parent category regrouping your categories 2, 3, 4 & 5. Then, in the shortcode, you’ll call your parent category.

I hope this will help,

Cheers,
Jeremy
