Showing only the events from one category

[Robert]

Is there a code, or other way, to show only the events from one category in a page?

Hi Robert, if you paste this code into your functions.php file you can filter what categories are displayed in the calendar:

/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/
/* Exclude a category from the calendar
/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------*/

add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'exclude_events_category' );
function exclude_events_category( $query ) {

if ( $query->query_vars['post_type'] == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'month' && !is_tax(TribeEvents::TAXONOMY) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {
$query->set( 'tax_query', array(
array(
'taxonomy' => TribeEvents::TAXONOMY,
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array('presentations'),
'operator' => 'IN'
)
)
);
}

return $query;

}


Make sure to change ‘presentations’ to the name of your category.

That’s not what I want.
I want to show only 1 category in a page, not on the calender.
I want to show everything on the calender.
I want to take out 1 category and show it on a different page, let’s say page1.

Hi there Robert. Thanks for the follow-up; sorry to hear that didn’t meet your needs. If you wanted to show specific categories within your content (but independent of the broader calendar) you may want to check out our template tag documentation, as it should point you in the right direction to do so. That can be found at https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation. We also just published a themer’s guide that is pretty in-depth and may help you out. It’s at https://theeventscalendar.com/themers-guide-to-the-events-calendar/.

Good luck! Let us know if you have any other questions from there.
