   I'm currently using the category functionality to categorise my events as "available" or "not available". Is it possible to remove the "Event" category, or to hide on the rendered calendar as I will have no events in the "Event" category. I can delete custom categories, but I couldn't see any way of deleting "Event". Many thanks.

   The category can be renamed, but the calendar requires having at least one category.

   Brilliant. It's so obvious now but I didn't appreciate that you could rename the categories in this way. Many thanks.

   Eran,
   Since the calendar requires at least one category, I'm trying to make the category colors transparent. There is a shortcode in the EventList to exclude category colors, but not in the Calendar. I'll probably request this shortcode be added to the Calendar.

   In the meantime, FireBug points me to modify .fc-event-skin and .fc-event.inner. But the category color really comes from the cat_colors.css file and .cat, right? And with each category adding a number, like .cat1 and .cat2, can you point me to the class I'm supposed to modify in my own themes css that will cover all of the categories?

   I've tried several things like adding the following, but with no luck:
   .fc-event-skin{background-color:transparent !important;border-color:transparent !important;color:transparent !important}

   Thanks!
   Mark

   I can't offer style customization for free, but will confirm that what you are trying to accomplish with the css statement above is valid; just don't override "color" as well - that hides the event text.

   Thanks Eran! I fixed the color override and everything worked. The categories colors are transparent and the text stays black. In appreciation I made a small donation to you via Paypal. Keep up the good work.
