    I’m trying to add a custom taxonomy with register_taxonomy function but the taxonomy is not availabe for events:

    register_taxonomy( 'area', array( 'post', ' event' ), $args );

    How can it be added?

    Thank you.

    I forgot to add

    
'taxonomies' => array( 'area' ),

    To $args of

    register_post_type( 'event', $args ); in event-organiser-cpt.php:283

    Now the taxonomy is working and available for events. Is there some way to do it without modify the plugin code? I mean, if I write in the plugin, it can’t be updated anymore.

    Solved. Was a typo registering taxonomy. Space before ' event'.

    Hi Aitor,

    It seems that you already make your own taxonomy but you are using the original files of event organiser. You can make a plugin for yourself, you just have to create a php file with a simple header and copy paste your code with your own taxonomy. The php file will begin with this header : 

    <?php
/*
Plugin Name: Area for Event Organiser // this is just an idea of name
Description: This plugin works with event organiser and original and it is intended to add a taxonomy with areas.
*/
/* Start Adding Functions Below this Line */

    Right below you can add your own code and at the end you will close it with the php closing element ?>

    Thank you for the advice, Gillermo. I already have my custom taxonomy in a mu-plugin
