With EE3 I used the plug in “Widget Shortcode” to add a “Show all events in this specific category” widget on every single event. (Se http://www.trappanbio.se and view an event.) EE4 shows empty widget (only the widget title is visible). (This future site is not online yet.) WordPress Version: |
Hi, Are you referring to the widgets in the footer (bottom left)? If those are dynamic widgets that are set through WordPress admin –> Appearance –> Widgets, then the information should appear. — |

Test: Can I post this (I have tried to add information with an error message as a result). |
|
No, I am referring to the area for the event itself. Look at http://trappanbio.se/visning/?ee=106 or view this print screen http://trappanbio.se/printscreen.png The footer widget shows all the event and thats fine. I’m searching for a way of ALSO showing a specific widget in the event post area. It workes in EE3 but not in EE4. |

Hi, I tested the plugin out on EE 4.3.1 and it worked fine – screenshot http://take.ms/dQKTv |

Thank you! You are right. In 4.3.1 it works 🙂 but current event will not show up. I’d like to list ALL the event within the category chosen, even the one opened. Is that possible? |
|
Hi, Not from what I can tell, but you would be best talking to the Widget plugin creator regarding that issue. |
|
🙂 YOU are the plugin creator of Event Espresso Upcoming Events and it works in EE3 so I thought it was possible in EE4. I’ll better change the Widget title to “OTHER shows” until it works in EE4. |
|
Hi, I meant the developer of the “Widget Shortcode” plugin. |
|
Thanks for impressively quick response again, Dean! 🙂 That plug doesn’t do anything but placing your widget on any place of my choice. And in EE3 with grace. I’ll go by Plan B (using “Other dates” as Widget title) |
|
Ahhh my apologies, I see what you are saying now. I assumed it was related to the other addon, but you are absolutely right that it is EE. I think the devs assumed that if you are already in the event you don’t need to see it in the upcoming widget. I’m glad you found a workaround though! |
|
(I’m not sure my customer will be happy when the EE4 upgraded site will be up and he will se an empty widget even though there is a show.) I hope for an option in the settings in the future. Cheers! |
Hi Henrik, While we do not plan to add a user-configurable option for this, you can make your client happy by customizing the widget to their specifications. I outlined how to make a custom event widget in your other thread, and the code you’d change is on line 270. You can change it from:

Thank You! The Gist package* and this code worked! * Found here: https://eventespresso.com/topic/ee4-date-format-week-day-names-month-names/ |
