I have created a custom List template but I need to restrict the return to only 4 different category types. Here is my code
$atts = array(
‘title’ => NULL,
‘limit’ => 100,
‘css_class’ => NULL,
‘show_expired’ => FALSE,
‘month’ => NULL,
‘order_by’ => ‘start_date’,
‘sort’ => ‘ASC’,
);
// run the query
global $wp_query;
$wp_query = new EE_Event_List_Query( $atts );
I know I need to add a line but this does not seem to work
‘category_slug’ => ‘maestro-series, family-series, mansion-series, cab-series’
Any help would be great. Thanks so much

Hi,
category_slug is not a valid WP_Query parameter, us category_name (which actually uses the slug).
Please see here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Class_Reference/WP_Query#Category_Parameters

I am sorry but the reference code you provided does not work. Adding this line of code in fact returns the correct single category and works fine for a single category.
‘category_slug’ => ‘maestro-series’,
Adding this does not return any results
‘cat’ => 17,
All I need to a line of code where I can either enter the cat IDs or the slugs. I have 6 category types total and only want to display 4 of them in my list on the my page.
Thanks, Chris

Hi Christopher,
You can use a native WP_Query() along with tax_query to get this done. Example code follows:
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'espresso_events',
'tax_query' => array(
array(
'taxonomy' => 'espresso_event_categories',
'field' => 'slug',
'terms' => array( 'category-a', 'category-b', ),
),
),
);
$wp_query = new WP_Query( $args );
