 * Hello, I’m looking for a function to mark single events as internal. It means,
   they should be not visible in the events calendar or event list. But the direkt
   link to the event should be reachable for every one.
 * It is to be used for registration to events like member assembly of an association,
   which is not top secret – but we want to invite the members by email and they
   should be able to register.
 * Are there any possibility? If found nothing in documentation. Thank you very 
   much!

 * You can do this using Event Categories. Create a category called Members. Then
   go into Settings and then click on the Pages tab then click on Events List/Archives
   then in the pulldown list for Events Page select “No Events Page” and then click
   on the Save Changes button. Then click on the Formatting tab and then click on
   the Search Form and set “Enable advanced fields” to No and then click on the 
   Save button. Then on the page that was the events page use a shortcode like this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       [events_calendar category="categoryabc,categorydef" long_events=1 full=1 show_search=1 has_search=1 views=calendar,list,grid,list-grouped scope="future"]
       ```
   
 *  The category list can be category ids or category slugs. Just don’t list “members”
   in the category list.

 * Hello joneiseman, thank you very much for your answer! That’s a great idea! I
   did not come up with this out of the box solution. I was only looking for plugins
   all the time…
   Thank you! 🙂
