Hi<\/p>\n
I need to have a page with a filter bar that only displays certain – multiple – categories. For example I would like a calendar that shows primary, secondary, early-years events. I can do this via shortcode but then the Filter Bar isn’t compatible with the shortcode (I wish I’d known that before purchasing, but hey)<\/p>\n
In this case, I’d like to use the main page ‘\/events’ to show certain categories with the filter bar. I think the easiest way would be to excluse the 1 or 2 categories I don’t want. I have the code from another post in the forum but my issue is that I don’t know how to target the main events page in functions.php as it doesn’t seem to have an ID. I need to target that specific List otherwise is_single() excludes those categories from every page I am using the shortcode on.<\/p>\n
Can you help me to target that specific page? The code I have is below. My PHP knowledge is not great so please let me know if there are any major errors as well. <\/p>\n
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'tribe_exclude_events_category_month_list' );\nfunction tribe_exclude_events_category_month_list( $query ) {\n \n if ( isset( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] ) && ! is_singular( 'tribe_events' ) ) {\n \n if ( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'list' && ! is_tax( Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY ) || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'photo' && $query->query_vars['post_type'] == Tribe__Events__Main::POSTTYPE && ! is_tax( Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY ) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {\n \n $query->set( 'tax_query', array(\n \n array(\n 'taxonomy' => Tribe__Events__Main::TAXONOMY,\n 'field' => 'slug',\n 'terms' => array( 'alum-events' ),\n 'operator' => 'NOT IN'\n )\n ) );\n }\n \n }\n \n return $query;\n}<\/code><\/pre>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-1215658","topic","type-topic","status-closed","hentry"],"yoast_head":"\nTarget only \/events main page in functions -<\/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\/target-only-events-main-page-in-functions\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Target only \/events main page in functions -\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Hi I need to have a page with a filter bar that only displays certain – multiple – categories.
