    Hi,

    For an event page, I use the placeholder #_EVENTCATEGORIES to show in which categories my event belongs.

    The categories are shown in alphabetical order.

    Is there a way to show the categories in the parent-child order?

    Hi,

    I would also really love to be able to do this! Below is a specific example, copied from an event page. “SKIING” is the parent category and I would like for it to display above its two child categories.

    CATEGORIES:
    Cross Country Skiing
    SKIING
    Snowshoeing

    Thanks for any advice.

    at the moment you need to modify template file at events-manager/templates/placeholders/categories.php

    to use templates: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/using-template-files/

    eg. wp-content/themes/Your Theme/plugins/events-manager/placeholders/categories.php

    Ok, so once I have copied categories.php in the right folder in my theme, what changes do I make to the content of categories.php to respect parent-child order?

    sorry but at the moment we are quite limited with regards to custom coding however maybe you can use wordpress get_term

    Ok, I will try get_term

    I previously tried with get_category_parents

    But, it did not work.
