EE4 latest version

Sorry if this is was previously covered. I searched a lot but the search functionality is extremely limited in the support forums (ability to sort by date would help a lot! And might even reduce the number of new cases).

Issue #1
When an event category is selected in the calendar all the events are filtered as expected. However, there is no visual indication of which category is selected. This makes this functionality unusable as it confuses the end user as to why events are not showing if they don’t have feedback that a filter is active. I don’t see different styles when something is active or not. I am sure I am missing something and there must be a way to do this but don’t see it.

Issue #2
Not a big deal but in Event Espresso / Calendar / Basic Settings /
Enable CSS for Categories it says:
“This setting allows you to set each category to display a different color. Set each category color in Event Espresso > Categories.”
Should the correct location be:
Event Espresso > Events > Categories ?
But I do not see a place for color / CSS there.
There is no selection Event Espresso > Categories in our install.

Hi there,

The visual indication of the currently selected category is in the URL of the page, but you can use the Category Filter instead (Enable Filters in Calendar > Yes), and that will show the current selection in the drop down select.

You’ll need to go in and add or edit an event category to edit its colors, and the metabox where you can edit the colors is noted in this screenshot.
