Shortcode for categories

[Valentina Brioni]

Hi!

We are setting the new website of a client who manages a theater which has also “cinema nights”.

We would like to use Avada which is well integrated with Events Calendar and we need to know how to display in the homepage two different sections, “next cinema events” and “next theater events”. Is there a shortcode we can use?

We would also like to be able to limit the number of posts, for example the next two theater events.
Also, is there the possibility of calling one specific event and displaying it where we need?

Thanking you in advance,

Valentina

Hi Valentina, hope you’re doing well!

Great questions. Events Calendar PRO does indeed come with a handful of shortcodes that allow you to embed the Advanced List widget into any page or post.

Specifically, the widget allows you to filter events based on a specific category and the number of events to display. That means you can place the widget into the homepage as many times as you have specific categories to display. Here’s a full rundown of the features for the widget.

And, yes, there is a way to embed a single event into an page or post. You can grab the link for any event, paste it into the WordPress editor, and it will automatically embed into the content.

Does this help answer your questions? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff
