What is wrong with this? It isn’t returning my category, only the most recent events. What am I missing?
EE4, WP version current, site: http://50.87.39.161/~bgcdalla/ (for the front page, lower left corner)
query_posts(array('post_type' => 'espresso_events', 'posts_per_page' => 4, 'category_name' => 'current' ));
Thanks in advance!

Hi Christina,
It turns out that the taxonomy term for Espresso Events is ‘espresso_event_categories’.
As an aside, WP_Query or get_posts are recommended and it’s usually recommended to avoid using query_posts.

Still no joy. What is the expected answer? the slug, the name, the ID?
It returns everything anyway!
Thanks
Thanks for the aside, not my theme. When I change it to WP_Query it conflicts with something else and the loop gets stuck. Don’t have time to troubleshoot, today.

Hi Christina,
Can you post the template file in a gist or a pastebin so we can see the code in context? Thanks.

Hi Christina,
I ran the code and it works if I use the slug:
'espresso_event_categories' => 'event-category-slug'
Along with that, you will need to include the event template view helper before you start the event loop. You can include the view helper by adding this line of code before the query:
load_helper('Event_View'); ?>
