    Hi !
    Thank you for your amazing and so useful plugin !
    I need to get the category id of the current category page in order to use it in the calendar shortcode but I don’t know how to do…

    <?php
    echo do_shortcode(‘[events_calendar long_events=1 full=1 category=”#_CATEGORYID”]’);
    ?>

    Many thanks in advance for helping me !!!

    Using a placeholder in php will never work.

    Try this (untested):

    <?php
global $EM_Event;
$category_id = $EM_Event->output("#_CATEGORYID");

echo do_shortcode( '[events_calendar category="'. $category_id .'"]' );
?>
