post_category don’t work as filter

Sorry I try it, but it don’t work. The $searches includes the attribute at the start of the get_default_search function with the right values. I thinnk it is not needed to include this code.

it is not the solution. I make a dump of the event’s in the hook add_filter('em_events_get','my_em_category_events_get',1,2);
but I see not the category. If I edit the event I can see the category and change it.

I did not want to use my own taxonomy, I want category of normal posts. For this reason I tried the lower part of the tutorial. When using the post category, however, you should use the type post_category for searching or filtering. But this is not working.

The Tutoroila descript that I can register the post category to use with a event:

Exceptions : Post Tags and Categories

One final common example which has a slight twist – adding the normal posts category to your events and locations:
1
function my_em_own_taxonomy_register(){
2
register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘category’,EM_POST_TYPE_EVENT);
3
register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘category’,EM_POST_TYPE_LOCATION);
4
register_taxonomy_for_object_type(‘category’,’event-recurring’);
5
}
6
add_action(‘init’,’my_em_own_taxonomy_register’,100);

Now your Events and Locations can assign and search for post categories. The twist is when using this in your search attributes, since we already use category and tag, you need to use post_category and post_tag instead.
Using Custom Taxonomies in searches

Once you’ve added the taxonomy to Events or Locations, it’s time to search! You can do this using shortcode or PHP. Here’s an example of both ways to search the post categories we added above.

Shortcode:

[events_list post_category=”featured,-hidden”]
[locations_list post_category=”featured,-hidden”]

And I do this. I can select the post category in the event this work fine. But I can’t use “post_category” (see the last shortcode discription) to show only the events for one or more post categories.

“Keine Veranstaltungen” -> no event found.
