Thank you for responding.

Hi Justin,

Are sub-categories supported and working in the premium version?

Thanks,

Does anyone have subcategories working?

I’m sorry to keep bugging you, and thank you for the new release, but subcategories are not working for me. I get a 404 if I try any of the following URL formats:

1. domain.com/category/{events category slug}/{events subcategory slug}/{year}-{date}

2. domain.com/category/{events category slug}/{events subcategory slug}/{month | upcoming | past}

When I link directly to the subcategory, or tack URL args to the category URL, the plugin template does not load, but rather I get a regular category archive page.

eg:

1. domain.com/category/{events category slug}/{events subcategory slug}/?eventDisplay=month&eventDate={year}-{month}

2. domain.com/?cat={events subcategory id}&eventDisplay=month&eventDate={year}-{month}

It seems like the in_event_category() method could be returning false for a subcategory, but I can’t tell why. I tried changing all instances of ->cat_ID to ->term_id and ->name to ->cat_name but that didn’t change anything. Are subcategories working for you?

Thanks,
Darren

Justin,

I hooked into publish_post with a function that adds/creates a subcategory of the events category for the State or Province and then adds the post to it. Now I just need to add something to the interface so that a user can choose a State subcategory and have the events filtered accordingly. However, I want to preserve the current Month/Year being viewed and have the prev/next buttons and date jump links updated to stay in the selected subcategory. Is this type of subcategory navigation already built in, or being built in?

Thanks,
Darren

Thanks, Justin.

My deadline is approaching fast. I need to filter events by State and I really don’t want to hack up the plugin and make it un-upgradeable. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thank you, Justin. That’s great.

I see what you’re saying and that is certainly a viable solution. However, my opinion was that if it is already possible to override list.php, gridview.php, and single.php in your theme, why not also make it possible to override table.php?

Best,
Darren
