Categories in Gutenberg Editor

    Events Manager x.xx still doesn’t show Event Categories or Event Tags when using the Gutenberg editor. A fix was proposed in this forum post and, as far as I can tell, it works.

    I’m not sure where Gutenberg support stands at this point (the Gutenberg/Events Manager blog post is pretty old…), but it would be great if em_posts.php were updated to include this fix.

    I, for one, use WordFence security to make sure there’s been no malicious changes to plugin files, so it alerts me to the fact that my version of em_posts.php (edited to include the fix) doesn’t match the WordPress repository version. I’m sure I could kludge something together via some functions.php code, but just incorporating the fix would be better.

    I’d be happy to supply a specific patch or pull request (but it’s just adding one line to the two register_taxonomy calls).

    unfortunately, at the moment Gutenberg editor is not yet fully supported but we already informed the Devs about this.

    Thanks.

    Yes, I understand that Gutenberg isn’t fully supported (though it’s been a long time coming). I would encourage “the Devs” to prioritize completing the work (as if it’s ever complete). However, as Gutenberg has now been the default editor for more than a year, site “post authors” are now much more familiar with Gutenberg than with the classic editor. Requiring authors (who may not be super-technical in their skill sets) to become familiar with both editors is a bit cumbersome–especially given the passage of time.

    Plus, this seems like a simple fix with no apparent side effects.

    That’s my “pitch” for moving Gutenberg compatibility forward!
