    Hello,
    How are you? I hope its good.
    I have a problem with category shortcode. I would like only events from a specific category to be displayed on the website. For this purpose, I put a shortcode:
    [events_list scope = ‘tomorrow’ pagination = 1 category = ‘comercial-video-modeling’] [/ events_list]
    However, it still shows all the events …

    Is it possible to limit the search to a specific category only by adding an attribute to [event_search_form]?

    I will be grateful for your help.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

  • Hello,

    Please make sure that you’re using quotes or single quotes. Sometimes when you copy and paste from code it changes them to a curly quotes like the one from your code. here’s zoomed screenshot of your code: https://take.ms/M0lr2

    Here’s a sample shortcode:

    [events_list scope="tomorrow" category="concert"]<p>#_EVENTLINK will take place at #_LOCATIONLINK on #_EVENTDATES at #_EVENTTIMES</p>[/events_list]

    Okay, it works fine, thank you. How about the limitation [event_search_form]? Is it possible to create a search engine only in specific categories?

    Hello,

    Can you perhaps explain to us more on what you mean by search engine only in specific categories?

    Hello,
    I mean, is it possible to create an event_search_form search engine in which only some categories are selected? And not as it is currently the case, the user chooses in all of them.

    Yes, you can modify categories dropdown part by modifying template events-manager/templates/templates/search/categories.php

    to use templates: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

    eg. wp-content/themes/Your Theme/plugins/events-manager/templates/search/categories.php
