    I’m using this plugin to create a sort of directory of events. I want the user to be able to sort the events by category. How can I get category sorting links on the archive page? Also, how can I add the categories to the event listing page so that users can click the category and view all events within that category.

    The page I need help with: [log in to see the link]

    All of your modifications fall under customizations and required developer’s efforts. Please ask your developer first understand SEP code structure and then write a customizable code for it.

    For events category based sorting, you need to write custom code for it. Please customize the following template:
    simple-event-planner/public/partials/archive-event-listing.php

    For adding category links to listing page, please modify the following templates:
    simple-event-planner/includes/class-simple-event-planner-shortcode-event-listing.php
    simple-event-planner/public/partials/event-listing/content-event-listing-list-view.php
    simple-event-planner/public/partials/event-listing/content-event-listing-grid-view.php

    Thank you for writing to us. Let us know if you need our further assistance.

    What is the current function of the categories then? Are they only for backend sorting? I’m just wondering why there’s the option to create categories for listings without having the option to sort them on the frontend.

    Thanks

    @troop236bsa,

    Events category are available but according to our architecture, we don’t need to sort them on front-end. If it is your requirement then you need to customize SEP plugin using available hooks. You can also use your theme existing template but that will be your theme design.

    We strongly recommend you please take help from a programmer. Thanks!
