Title: shortcode and buddypress/multisite problem Last modified: August 30, 2016 --- # shortcode and buddypress/multisite problem * Resolved [TheZorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thezorro/) * (@thezorro) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/) * Hey * It is most likely a minor problem but I am stuck 😉 * I have a multi site with buddypress. I know want to create an event list with all events from blog 1 that are connected to group A (ID:6) and have the tag public. * I tried the following: * [events_list blog=”1″ group=”6″ tag=”public”][/events_list] * This does however not work as it shows all events from blog 1. If I delete the blog=”1″ it shows all events from multisite. * Thank you for your help * [https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/events-manager/) Viewing 5 replies - 1 through 5 (of 5 total) * Thread Starter [TheZorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thezorro/) * (@thezorro) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/#post-6566019) * Might be important: * The main blog is 1 * buddypress has its primarly connection however to blog 2 and the tags are defined within blog 2 as well. * Plugin Support [angelo_nwl](https://wordpress.org/support/users/angelo_nwl/) * (@angelo_nwl) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/#post-6566078) * sorry for the confusion but what you’ve wanted to show is all the events in then blog=1 using the shortcode above or the entire blog? * Thread Starter [TheZorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thezorro/) * (@thezorro) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/#post-6566081) * Don’t be sorry, it is complicated to explain 😉 * I start again: I have a multisite with three blogs: a main page (ID:1), a blog( ID:2) and a network (ID:3). Buddypress usually has its main connection to ID: 1 but I changed it to ID:3 (as the mainpage is an overview page). * Now we are using event manager and multi site for event manager is actived. All events are created within the network page(ID:3). Some of these events are public which is indicated with the tag “plubic” and/or connected to a buddypress group. * I need now that some of these events appear on the main page (ID:1). So I used the following code: * [events_list blog=”3″ group=”6″ tag=”public”][/events_list] * This code however shows every event, not just those of the buddypress group with ID:6 and the tag “public”. I am not that experienced but I believe that the site is looking for the tag within the events on the main page and not on the network page. So I somehow need to tell him that it has to look for it at the network page, like: [events_list blog=”3″ group=”(group is in ID:3 not ID:1)” tag=”( tag is in ID:3 not ID:1″][/events_list] * Sorry for the confusion. * Thread Starter [TheZorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thezorro/) * (@thezorro) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/#post-6566085) * Just for confirmation: group and tag works on the network page ID:3 where there events are stored and managed but not on ID:1, the main page. * So I need a way to tell the plugin that it needs to look for the “group=” and the “tag=” classification within the other blog. * Thread Starter [TheZorro](https://wordpress.org/support/users/thezorro/) * (@thezorro) * [10 years, 9 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/shortcode-and-buddypressmultisite-problem/#post-6566099) * Okay, I found a “work-around”: * I defined the categories for the events on the main page (ID:1). This way it was possible to filter the events from the network page (ID:3) according to their category a the categories are shared over the whole network. * However, filtering the events according to their buddypress group is still not possible on the main page. If anybody know how to do that that would be great.
