Hiya,
The best way would probably be to use the shortcode, like so;
[events_list category="4"]
Cheers,
Phil
Thanks Phil
I just tried that and it seems to get ignored.

are you using the right number? you need to replace 4 with either your category ID, or the slug e.g.”music”
Thanks Marcus,
Yes, the number is correct and I’ve tested the code on another page and apart from a couple of minor formatting issues it works there.

Just doesn’t seem to work on the page created by EM (Club Events).
Cheers
Phil
Could you paste the snippet you’re using for your Club Events page? Thanks.
I think I am attempting to do the same thing. I have four categories of events. I would like events for each category to print on separate pages. Can you get me started in the right direction. I am using the free version of EM via wordpress. Thank you!

Here is the code that I used on the test page.
<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="events-table" >
<thead>
<tr>
<th class="event-time" width="110">Date/Time</th>
<th width="102"></th>
<th class="event-description" width="*">Event</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
[events_list category="4"]<tr>
<td>
#_EVENTDATES<br/>
#_EVENTTIMES
</td>
<td>#_EVENTIMAGE</td>
<td> #_EVENTLINK
{has_location}<br/><i>#_LOCATIONNAME, #_LOCATIONTOWN #_LOCATIONSTATE</i>{/has_location}
</td>
</tr>[/events_list]
</tbody></table>
The important bit is the [events_list category=”x”]..[/events_list] where x is the category ID.
@caimin_nwl Currently that is provided by the EM settings and is the code provided by them. I have tried all manner of ways to try and filter to one category (category ID 4) but none have worked.
I have a similar issue when I try to use EM placeholders and shortcodes in text widgets, they don’t work.
I tried the above shortcode and seems to be working? can you confirm that 4 is = Irish Club
about placeholders and shortcodes in text widgets, try something similar using links

I used ths code, selected the appropriate category ID and it worked fine. I would like to customized the format by deleting the event date and event time column. As luck would have I am having trouble getting that done.
To remove the Dates/Times column it should work if you just delete the <th> for the Date/Times and then the <td> that contains the placeholders for the dates and times.
I tried that but then the event image becomes larger.

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="events-table" >

<tr>
<th class="event-time" width="110">Date/Time</th>
<th width="102"></th>
<th class="event-description" width="*">Event</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody>
[events_list category="8"]<tr>
<td>
#_EVENTDATES
#_EVENTTIMES
</td>
<td>#_EVENTIMAGE</td>
<td> #_EVENTLINK
{has_location}<i>#_LOCATIONNAME, #_LOCATIONTOWN #_LOCATIONSTATE</i>{/has_location}
</td>
</tr>[/events_list]
</tbody></table>
When I delete <th> and <td> for event date and event time , thief event image becomes larger. Any thoughts? Thank you.
And one more Question.. How can I delete all the extra lines at the top of the table? Thx
