Shortcode problem

[Ulf]

Hi, im using a shortcode and my goal is to list all the events that have the tag “flexpaket”. But the following shortcode does not filter the tag “flexpaket”. It just show all of the events.

[tribe_events view=”list” tribe-bar=”false” tag=”flexpaket”]

Hi Ulf

Can you try using this shortcode instead?

[tribe_events_list tag="flexpaket"]

Let me know if that works for you.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Well… is sort of work. It views the right events, but not with the custom styling i want it to have.
The event list should look like this page

Hi Ulf

Unfortunately our full width calendar view shortcodes do not yet have tags as a filter option.

If you think that is something you would like as a feature I encourage you to visit our User Voice Page and either upvote an existing request or make a new request there.

You can suggest it it https://tribe.uservoice.com/forums/195723-feature-ideas/suggestions/18382048-add-tag-as-filter-option-for-tribe-events-shortcod.

Thanks

Would it work if i change “flexpaket” from a “tag” to a “category” instead?

[Courtney]

Hi Ulf

Yes, calendar view shortcodes can support categories. Please let me know if that works out.

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Well… it works, but choosing this way will generate another problem. If i switch this tag to a category also means that it also will be shown in the filterbar. This is something i do not want.

Im using categories to define our available music-genres and thats is the only categories i want to be shown in the filterbar.

Is there a way to exclude some categories from the filterbar or a way to pick witch categories i want to be shown.

Hi Ulf!

You can hide specific categories from the Filter bar by using the snippet Nico shared in this thread > https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/exclude-two-specific-categories-from-filter-bar-menu/#dl_post-1134692

I hope that helps 🙂

Is there anything else we can help you with? Let us know

Best,
Victor

Ok, i have tired it but it did not work for me. I try to exclude the category “dans”. Can you please check if my code is correct if i want to exclude the category “dans”

/* Tribe hide categories from filter */
function tribe_modify_category_filter ( $values, $slug ) {
 
    if ( $slug != 'eventcategory' ) return $values;
 
    foreach ( $values as $key => $value ) {
 
        if ( $value['name'] == ’dans’ || $value['name'] == 'Category Name 2' ) {
 
            unset( $values[$key] );
             
        }
    }
 
    return $values;
 
}
add_filter( 'tribe_events_filter_values', 'tribe_modify_category_filter', 10, 2 );

Hi Ulf

You won’t need

|| $value['name'] == 'Category Name 2' 

in your code.

Can you try that?

Thanks
Courtney 🙂

Ok, i have inserted the following code, but the category is still visible in the dropdown list

/* Tribe hide categories from filter */
function tribe_modify_category_filter ( $values, $slug ) {
  
    if ( $slug != 'eventcategory' ) return $values;
  
    foreach ( $values as $key => $value ) {
  
        if ( $value['name'] == ’dans’ ) {
  
            unset( $values[$key] );
              
        }
    }
  
    return $values;
  
}
add_filter( 'tribe_events_filter_values', 'tribe_modify_category_filter', 10, 2 );
