Hello,<\/p>\n

Last year we migrated an entire website into WordPress. All of the website’s content is separated by several blog post categories. <\/p>\n

Will the Events Calendar PRO Widget pull content from the site blog post categories that are already published? <\/strong> I’m aware the widget has it’s own events categories system but we need something that will pull from the hundreds of posts that already created and published.
\n
\nWill the widget allow us to select and identify which existing post categories to display in the calendar? Also, does the calendar allow you to publish future events in advance? <\/strong>For example, today is February 1, 2016 but I want to post a date for an event in March 12, 2016. The goal is for that post to show up on the Calendar for March 12, 2016 but still publish today on the Feb.1st. <\/p>\n

We want to make sure the widget will perform the way we need it to before purchasing a plan. Thank you for help and information.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1065493","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nDoes the Events Calendar PRO Widget sync with blog post categories already built -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/theeventscalendar.com\/support\/forums\/topic\/does-the-events-calendar-pro-widget-sync-with-blog-post-categories-already-built\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Does the Events Calendar PRO Widget sync with blog post categories already built -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hello, Last year we migrated an entire website into WordPress.
