    Hi and Happy New Year!

    First of all, thank you for making this plugin, it is quite useful!

    As my website has a lot of different event categories, it is quite difficult to select the correct ones when importing an event. Is it possible to change the field type to include a search box to dynamically only display categories that contain the search string?

    Or if not possible, maybe displaying all categories as checkboxes in 2/3 columns?

    Thank you very much in advance for your time and help!

    Hi @kr3t3n,

    Wish you too very Happy New Year! Happy to know that you liked our plugin.

    Well if you are importing lots of events from different categories here are some suggestions to handle it.

    – While scheduling import from organizer you can give assign some tags and categories to all events of that organizer.
    – So you can categorize event organizer as much as possible and while scheduling import you can assign them categories which you can filter later easily

    If you want to assign different categories to different events thats not possible automatically as we import all events together and there is no way to specify which events goes in which categories.

    You may can contact us on website to customize plugin to handle your in more smart way to manage categories here.

    We really happy you like our plugin, We will be more than happy if you can post review about plugin here, It will be first good thing in New Year ??

    Thank you so much !

    Review published now! ??

    I am asking for manually adding events, not using the schedule feature. And since my website has over 30 event categories, it is quite difficult to find the correct category using the small 4 line field available.

    I am not a Pro user, should I submit a support ticket nevertheless?

    Great! I’ve just submitted a ticket on your website. For easy reference I will also copy my question here:

    As my website is using a lot of event categories, it is very difficult to select the right categories in the existing field (4 lines tall). Is it possible to add some code to change the field by adding a search functionality to select categories? (also, preserving the ability to select multiple categories)
