Grouping & Sorting Events Manager Events by Category
-
I’ve been trying unsuccessfully to make this work for many days! Two best attempts are below. I need to create a report that:
*groups Events Manager events under their categories
*sorts by wp_terms.term_group, wp_terms.term_order, #_EVENTDATES, #_EVENTTIMES
*limits each section to a different parent category (or term_id numbers)
*doesn’t have info displaying in strange placesItem 1: used Events Manager [events_list] and shortcodes, result: data accurate but no grouping or sorting
Item 2: copied from Pastebin [category_events_list_group] php into mu_plugin (text below), result: grouping I think but no event data & faulty sorting
/*********************
<?php
/*
Shortcode Name:category_events_list_group
Plugin URI: https://www.
Description: Group Events List By Category
Version: .1
Author: Events Manager
Author URI: https://wp-events-plugin.com/
*//*
Added this code to create a new shortcode
[category_events_list_group]
That can group events by category type.
*/function em_events_list_by_category(){
$EM_Categories = EM_Categories::get($args);
foreach( $EM_Categories as $EM_Category ){
echo “<h2>”.$EM_Category->name.”</h2>”;
echo do_shortcode(‘[events_list category=”‘.$EM_Category->term_id.'”]’);}
}
add_shortcode(‘category_events_list_group’, ’em_events_list_by_category’);
**************/
…Any help would be very greatly appreciated!!!

I am not part of support just some dude…
maybe I am missing something here…Are you trying… with the Pastebin code for a new shortcode…
to automatically have the events, grouped by category.. ?
That is, when you add a new category it automatically appears on that page.If you were to manually put each category on that page…
does something like this not work ?
WTC Club Meetings
[events_list category="107]https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/event-search-attributes/
category
Supply a single id, slug or comma-separated ids or slugs (e.g. "1,categories-slug,3") to limit the search to events in any of these categories.My apologies for stepping in here…
I see on your website that you are producing event lists in a couple of different ways.With the shortcode we have been discussing… I am producing a list.. yet
on your “print” page nothing is producing, with the shortcode
[category_events_list_group]
Obviously you know this…On my site… the shortcode
[location_search_form ajax=1]
does work.So with no events showing.. and the above shortcode.. just showing as a “text” or ie: not a valid shortcode… yet it is..
Something is a bit wrong… looking at your “print” page.. and Firefox inspector.. I don’t see any major errors.
Is the page at https://dev.wilmingtontrailclub.org/wtc-event-print/ an actual “Live” use of the shortcodes… or just a reproduction of your problem ?
Well… hopefully you’ll get some of this working.
thank you in advance for clarifying.
