Can you paste the shortcode you’re using?
This was created using the Weaver Show Posts plugin.
Shortcode using filter name: [show_posts filter=next-support-group-event] – You can also use the “Add [show_posts]” button on the Page/Post Editor.
Shortcode using parameters: [show_posts post_type=event-recurring Event Categories (slug: event-categories) Values (slugs): support-group-meeting date=this-month cols=1 posts_per_page=1 show=full hide_bottom_info=true hide_top_info=true]
Thank you
Does the plugin / theme you’re using support custom post types?
Yes, I think I know where you are going with this.
Is there a shortcode to post next event from specific category when display as posts is used?
I tried changing Display events as: from “pages” to “posts” but the resulting display link from calendar and event widget includes “Members”.
Sorry, I still don’t get desired result.
http://www.fvbtc.org/support/support-group/
Event Pages / Display events as “pages”.
Added ‘#_CATEGORYNEXTEVENTS [event_id=”365″]’ to page.
should be something like
[event event_id=”365″] #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENTS [/event] where 365 is the event id

Really appreciate the help with this!
I have been studying the documentation and the syntax now makes sense to me, although I used #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENT for single event. Confirmed my recurring event ID is 365. The shortcode doesn’t return anything.
http://www.fvbtc.org/support/support-group/
This is the page text below the horizontal line:
<h3>Support Group Meeting</h3>
[event event_id=”365″] #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENT [/event]
Try it outside that shortcode.
Not sure what you are suggesting.
When #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENT is used without opening and closing shortcodes, “#_CATEGORYNEXTEVENT” appears on the page.
how about
[event post_id="365"]Next Event #_CATEGORYNEXTEVENT [/event]
How about a different approach using conditional placeholder? {has_category_Support Group Meeting}content{/has_category_Support Group Meeting}
I would suspect that to display the single event page formatting I would need to include the following code somewhere?
<div style=”float:right; margin:0px 0px 15px 15px;”>#_LOCATIONMAP</div>
<p>
Date/Time
Date(s) – #_EVENTDATES
<i>#_EVENTTIMES</i>
</p>
{has_location}
<p>
Location
#_LOCATIONLINK
</p>
{/has_location}
<br style=”clear:both” />
#_EVENTNOTES
{has_bookings}
<h3>Bookings</h3>
#_BOOKINGFORM
{/has_bookings}
Not sure how to put all this together?
Not sure what you’re asking, but if it helps, you can use specific formatting between the opening and closing [event] shortcodes.
Found an easy way to get an acceptable result.
I created a per page widget called next support group meeting.
Used single event page formatting from Events Manager Options / Formats in the list item format.

Thank you for your help and suggestions!
where exactly is the next event you wanted? I can’t see one.http://www.fvbtc.org/support/support-group/
