Even stranger, both tribe-event-query.class.php (which does not include children) and widget-list.class.php (which does include children) both have the tax_query argument of
include_childrenset to false by default… so I’m not sure if this is the parameter that is affecting this, even if that function snippet overrides it. Perhaps I am just not understanding…It really sucks that I call the Events List Widget & the Events Mini Calendar Widget which both show events of children categories, and the “View All” button appended to the end takes me to a calendar that says “No Events Found” because it searches only the parent category and none of the children.
What else in the tribe-event-query.class.php file could be controlling this outcome?
I have no “category-centric” customization in place. I was using the recommended “The Events Calendar Category Colors” plugin, but it yielded the same results, activated or deactivated.
@Barry, thank you for your timely response. The snippet you provided from Github, however, does that only apply to when you query with tribe_get_events()?
I thought this was supposed to work for the regular calendar, normally found at yoursite.com/events/, no?
When I have children events and categories, and I include this code in my functions.php file, go to a specific category “events/category/cat-slug1/” it still does not include children category/events. For example, I should be seeing events under “events/category/cat-slug1/child-slug1/” when I go to “events/category/cat-slug1/” with this function, correct?
Please advise, thank you.
And if I use the Calendar Widget… this DOES call children category events of the parent category? The main calendar does not but the widget calendar does? There is no logic behind that.
I’m sorry, but I can’t believe that after the 3rd edition of this plugin there is no way to call the calendar and pass arguments through a PHP function. It’s bad enough you have to write a custom WP_Query just to retrieve the data.
I have to agree with this. Children categories and their events should be shown in the calendar view when you select a category.
This really takes away from the robustness of the plugin, especially the PRO version. You shouldn’t have to check the child category AND the parent category.
A default WP_Query will produce this effect unless specified, why should Tribe Events taxonomy be any different?
Surely, there has to be a way to modify the query & arguments passed when the calendar is called. Maybe this will be a modification to the main plugin and get overridden when it updates, but it SHOULD be in the updates.
