Hi, I try to use category shortcode but they don’t work. Can you help me ?

Here the demo page:
http://staging.eataly.com.br/wp-admin/
( access is: user: eataly pass: E@tAly_BR )

Here the shortcode with 3 events:

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS category_slug=”cursos-de-cozinha-maio”]

as you can see the page not display anything.

Thanks
Sara

Hi there,

That’s not a link to a page, and you can try removing the quotes from the short code.

http://staging.eataly.com.br/categories/

but it doesn’t work.

Do you have any upcoming events assigned to that category? The reason I ask is because this URL doesn’t return any events:

http://staging.eataly.com.br/event-category/cursos-de-cozinha-maio/

Along with that, you’re using a version of Event Espresso that’s no longer supported. You’ll need at least version 4.8.10 or higher to allow us to be able to support your site.

I have another question. Is possible sort events in three columns instead of one?

Hello, you could use the limit parameter:

[ESPRESSO_EVENTS category_slug=cursos-de-cozinha-maio limit=2]
