    hi,
    this plugin is really useful and very simple to use.
    however I cannot find any manual for other shortcodes than [facebook_events].
    I was trying to get events show up on two different pages on my wp-site:
    -Upcoming Events: this should show upcoming (future) events
    -Past Events: this should show past events
    I created a category named “archive” for old facebook events. It’s great: FB-Events with this label DON’T show up when I use the shortcode [facebook_events]. This is what I want.

    But how can I display ONLY the FB-Events from the “archive” category? Must be something like [facebook_events category:”archive”] (<- I made this up!)

    Thank you a lot in advance!
    Kind regards,
    oystersauce

    Hello @oyastersauce,

    Currently there is no shortcode option available for category wise events, but we will implement it in our upcoming release.

    Hello @oyastersauce,

    We had added category filter in shortcode in our latest version 1.1.2. here is shortcode Example.

    [facebook_events col=’2′ posts_per_page=’12’ category=”cat1,cat2″]
    *Note: cat1,cat2 are category slug.

    Thanks

    Hi there,
    thanks for the super fast reply!
    Good to hear it.

    Is there any way I can achieve the same without a shortcode?
    If yes, I don’t want to bother you asking for a full explaination but any hint would be great.

    Or is the same possible in the PRO-Version by any chance?

    kind regards,

    Hello @oyastersauce,

    you can get particular category’s event at https://example.com/facebook_category/category-slug/, but it does not give you grid layout events. Based on theme event listing will be displayed.

    Hope this is helpful, let me ask if you fill any confusion

    Thanks,
    Dharmesh Patel
