Shortcode for particular event category

[carly]

Hi all,

I have 3 event categories for which I sell tickets: cookery school, kid’s academy and wine school. I have an overall ‘what’s on’ page which shows everything that is coming up, BUT I also have individual pages for the cookery school, wine school and kid’s academy which includes copy about each.

I would like to include a list of the up coming courses for each of the event categories in their respective pages on the site. I was expecting to use a shortcode for this, like you would with woocommerce but it doesn’t seem to work.

How can I make this happen?

Hi Carly,

Great question.

Right now we don’t have many shortcodes (in fact, just one – [tribe_mini_calendar] – ships with Events Calendar PRO though we’re adding more soon).

You could use this as follows:

[tribe_mini_calendar category="your-category-slug"]

This will then embed the mini calendar widget within your page. I appreciate that may not be quite what you’re looking for, but perhaps it would help in the interim?

Alternatively, you could link directly to the category archive in question from your menu (ie, example.com/events/category/some-category) or else you could use the [event_embed] shortcode from this third party plugin (do note that we don’t offer support for third party plugins within these forums, however).

Would any of those options work for you?
