    Hello, I am searching for an event plugin for our association.

    – We have events that take place in different cities.
    – We would like to use categories for the type of event (lecture, workshop, seminar).
    – We would like to use categories for the subjects of the event.

    We need all this done properly to allow the user to filter accordingly, as listing all “seminars” of “that” subject in “this” city. This is our desired result.

    I am wondering if the Event Manager will be sufficient, because for what I have tried out so far, I wouldn’t know how to achieve this.

    If it can be, even with add-ons, I would be glad to hear how.

    Thanks in advance
    Sofian

  • Hi Sofian,

    You should be able to do this with Events Manager by using a combination of locations, categories and tags.

    How have you tried to do it so far?

    Thanks for your reply. I was diving into another plugin meanwhile and will check this one out soon as well. The multiple locations idea I need to drop as it seems, since no plugin I found supports it.

    just so you know.. I am not part of the Support group here.. but they are a great bunch of guys and very helpful.

    But you should be able to do what you are trying to achieve.
    For example.. a “barebones” shortcode like this…
    [events_list mode="monthly" category="113" town="berlin"][/events_list]

    or this….

    [events_list_grouped mode="monthly" category="113" town="berlin"][/events_list_grouped]

    Between the opening and closing shortcode you can have many other options called Placeholders… for example excerpts, start times, etc etc…
    http://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/placeholders/

    So from my other post you read… you use the Search Options in the shortcode… and then insert the Placeholders to display what ever you want.

    It would look something like this… obviously you would CSS for your own styling….

    <div>
    <ul id="purplexmashead" style="width: 300px;">[events_list_grouped mode="monthly" category="113" town="berlin"]
    	<li id="purplexmas" class="withborder"><strong style="color: #000000;">#_CATEGORYIMAGE <span style="color: black;">#_EVENTDATES | #_EVENTTIMES</span></></strong><br />
     <span style="color: #000000; font-size: 14pt;"><strong>#_EVENTNAME</strong></span>
    <div><span style="color: red; font-size: 14pt; font-weight: bold;">#_LOCATIONTOWN</span><span style="color: blue;"> @ #_LOCATIONNAME</span><br />
     <span style="background-color: #ffffff;"><a style="font-size: 16pt; color: red; font-weight: bold;" href="#_EVENTURL">More Info...</a></span></div>
    </li>
    [/events_list_grouped]</ul>
    </div>

    Unfortunately I am not receiving notification mails anymore, hmpf. Good I passed by this post again as well. Thanks for all the help, I am sure it is possible to achieve what I want with EM, because it is so amazingly flexible. I can’t try out today, I was spending nearly 3 days with my calendar quest already, but I will jump in as soon as I can and try out all your suggestions and then come back with result and guess more questions 🙂
