A premium add-on to The Events Calendar plugin (required), Filter Bar allows for additional frontend event filtering capabilities to help users better navigate your calendar.
The Events Calendar: Filter Bar is an add-on for The Events Calendar that adds more filtering capabilities to an already robust plugin.
The Events Calendar allows you to create and manage events with ease from right within your WordPress dashboard; no shortcode is needed (nor is one available). And with The Events Calendar: Filter Bar add-on, your calendar receives a ton of new filtering options that allow users to drill down to only see certain types of events.
Filter Bar introduces a new sidebar panel that appears next to your calendar on the frontend. As users enable filters, they’re applied to the main calendar and the results narrow based on their selections. Care only about events taking place in the evening? Want to see tech meetups, not parties or pub crawls? Consider it done. With real-time AJAX filtering and dynamic URLs that you can save/share as needed, Filter Bar helps your users see the events most relevant to them.
Plus, Filter Bar users get access to our premium support forums. Need help or have a question? Post there and we'll get back to you within 24 hours (during the week). We're proud of our great support team and want to help make your calendar even better with The Events Calendar: Filter Bar.
The following lists features specific to Filter bar. For a list of The Events Calendar features, check out that plugin's readme.txt or check out the product page.
Just getting started? You'll want to watch and read through the Filter Bar new user primer,. And if you’re new to the calendar as a whole, you should probably also review The Events Calendar New User Primer.
Remember, to use Filter Bar you need to also be running The Events Calendar. You'll need to follow these steps for both plugins, starting with The Events Calendar.
That's it! Just configure your settings as you see fit, and you're on your way to filtering events in style.
If this is your first time using The Events Calendar and Filter Bar, you're in for a treat! Here are some basics we've found helpful for users jumping into it for the first time:
First, make sure that you're running the latest version of The Events Calendar and Filter Bar. If you're running Events Calendar PRO it needs to match the version number of The Events Calendar. And if you've got any other add-ons, make sure those are current / running the latest code as well.
The most common issues we see are either plugin or theme conflicts. You can test if a plugin or theme is conflicting by manually deactivating other plugins until just The Events Calendar and Filter Bar are running on your site. If the issue persists from there, revert to the default Twenty Twelve theme. If the issue is resolved after deactivating a specific plugin or your theme, you'll know that is the source of the conflict.
Note that we aren't going to say "tough luck" if you identify a plugin/theme conflict. While we can't guarantee 100% integration with any plugin or theme out there, we will do our best (and reach out the plugin/theme author as needed) to figure out a solution that benefits everyone.
If you're already a premium license holder, you're entitled access to our more actively-monitored premium forums at the tri.be website. We can provide a deeper level of support here and hit these forums on a daily basis during the work week. No post should go more than 24-48 hours during that time without a response.
Currently, the following add-ons are available for The Events Calendar:
We've got a The Events Calendar UserVoice page where we're actively watching for feature ideas from the community. Vote up existing feature requests or add your own, and help us shape the future of the products business in a way that best meets the community's needs.
Many questions can be answered by searching our knowledgebase. You can also search the premium forums to see if someone else has asked a similar question. If you're still not finding an answer, you can post a new thread in the forums and a member of our support team will help out.
