I'v created a theme file 'category-events.php' and its working great for listing all of the posts in the events category. But if I want to see a specific type of event (which is a sub-category) then WordPress defaults to my 'category.php'.
For example:
'siteurl.com/category/events' uses 'category-events.php'
but
'siteurl.com/category/events/music' uses 'category.php'
Googling around I found some old solutions to similar problems dealing with using the category id, but I was wondering if there's anything better now that WordPress supports category slug template files.
