Feed of 4 categories with one event each

  • Hello

    I just had a look at the shortcode list for this plugin, and I don’t think what I need is supported. But posting here anyway, maybe I just didn’t get how flexible the shortcodes are?

    Anyway, I need a feed with 4 events from 4 different categories, where each is the latest in each category – all 4 sorted by date.

    Example to clarify my scenario. If I had 4 categories with these event days in place:

    Cat-1
    Jun 20
    Jun 25
    Jul 2

    Cat-2
    Aug 3
    Sep 17
    Sep 28

    Cat-3
    Jun 17
    Aug 7
    Oct 16

    Cat-4
    Jul 3
    Jul 6
    Sep 12

    My feed would be these four, the closest date from each cat:

    Jun 17 (cat 3)
    Jun 20 (cat 1)
    Jul 3 (cat 4)
    Aug 3 (cat 2)

    Would that be achievable with this plugin, using the shortcodes?

    Hmm okay, I understand. Would you be interested in adding a shortcode like

    limit_by_category=”10″

    Then it would be possible, if multiple categories are possible (?), to have a list with events in accordance with my scenario, with something like this:

    [events-calendar-templates limit=”4″ limit_by_category=”1″ category=”cat1” category=”cat2” category=”cat3” category=”cat4” order=”ASC”]

    Only asking because I haven’t found any reliable event plugin that can do this…
