 * I am feeling quite dense. I can’t seem to do anything to get the categories dropdown
   working. My calendar website is:
    [http://bourbonlibrary.org/happenings/all-happenings/](http://bourbonlibrary.org/happenings/all-happenings/)
 * I know it is a configuration issues, but I don’t know how to configure everything
   to make it work. Is there any documentation that tells exactly how to get this
   feature working?
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! I’d really like to find out how to make
   this work.

 * You have to set this in the Events Settings, not the WP FullCalendar settings.
 * Pages > Event List/Archives > Show Events Search yes/no
 * At least, i think so.

 * If you are talking about the Tag and Category drop-downs at the top of the Full
   Calendar, used to down-select the events displayed…
 * Go to Settings > WP Full Calendar
 * The top section is titled ‘Post Types’
    Click the radio button next to ‘Events(
   event) Powered by Events Manager’ The Category and Tag drop-down options will
   appear. Check the boxes to activate.

 * Hmmm. When I go to “Settings > WP Full Calendar” and look under “Post Types”,
   I have the following radio buttons:
 *  Posts (post)
    Pages (page) Media (attachment) FAQ (wp_super_faq) Testimonials(
   testimonials-widget)
 * I do not have an entry for “Events (event) Powered by Events Manager”
 * Is it possible that I have something misconfigured elsewhere?

 * I’m using version 0.8.3. I upgraded to 0.8.4 when it came out only to find that
   my calendar was no longer visible. Many others had this problem and the fix was
   to go back to 0.8.3. I’ve not heard that the problem is fixed yet.

 * I will try to do so. When version 0.8.4 of WP FullCalendar came out, I upgraded
   to it. After doing so, I found that future events on my calendar did not show
   on the calendar. They existed in the events list; they just didn’t show (it seems
   that many had this problem).
 * At the time, the only way to fix the problem was to uninstall 0.8.4 and install
   0.8.3. After I did this, all my events showed perfectly.
 * So, in version 0.8.3 of my setup, I do not see the following post types (my list
   is much shorter):
    -> Posts -> Pages -> Media -> Locations -> Events (event) –
   powered by Events Manager (choose this one) —> event tags —> event categories
