I just posted a question… I think my issue is similar to yours too. I posted here:
Hey I’d like the similar info. Specifically, I have a theme that I am using for a site however, it is using a Blog Feed area (“hard-coded” ; not a widget) that relies on a category. The issue is: when I upgraded to The Events Calendar 2.0.1, it looks like “Events” are posts all to themselves! (separate from good ol’ blog posts with Categories checked)
I see this within that auto-blog feed area:
<?php query_posts("showposts=".get_option('theme_fromblog_recent')."&cat=".get_catid(get_option('theme_blog_cat')));
if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>
well, I believe I can GET TEC Events to populate this thing! But I need to know what to alter within that snippit of code that will redirect it to look for Events!
… been looking through the plugin files but my chops are limited (fear of breaking something…)
