 * Hi all,
 * In one of my page I’ve used `[events_list category=3 limit=5 pagination=1]` but
   in that page, when a user click on a link, I want to call the same page but add
   the month parameter.
    How can I pass my month parameter to my shortcode before`
   content()` is called ?
 * TIA,
 * Pierre.

 * sorry I’m afraid that this is not possible at the moment and might need lots 
   of coding on your part to make this work.

 * Hi Angelo,
 * thanks for your answer.
    I’ve found a alternative to do it ;)…
 * In my template, I do :
    `add_filter('the_content','replace_content'); the_content();`
 * and my function is :
 *     ```
       function replace_content($content) {
       global $month;
       	$content = str_replace('[events_list', '[events_list scope="future" month="'.$month.'" year="'.date("Y").'"', $content);
       	return $content;
       }
       ```
   
 * BTW, I can modify on the fly my month parameter 🙂 !!
 * Amicably,
 * Pierre.
