Passing Parameter to Short Code or using URL

There is a way explained in the documentation.
https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/event-attributes/

But personally, I’m using a taxonomy manager that gives u the possibility to add some fields to events.

Which taxonomy manager are you using? I would be interested in looking at it.

I am actually trying to use the lastname field that already exists in the WP user profile. I am using member list plugin and ideally would just like to create a link to the events list page for an individual member that would be equivalent to
[events_list search=:last name"]

if you only want to filter by a specific event owner, you can already do it this way:

[events_list owner=”x”]

where x is the user id of that person.

Is it possible to use a variable for x so it pulls the current user instead of hardcoding it. Or better yet is there an URL that will do the same thing as the short code. Something like

https://mydomain.com/events/index.php?post_type=event_list&search=lastname

I am using a member list plugin and would like to link to each member’s events.

Hi,

this might be possible; try to see this link https://wp-events-plugin.com/tutorials/creating-custom-event-search-attributes/ then try to use php $_REQUEST instead.
