Today another part of my dream calendar came true: Showing categories in tabs/tabbed view:

wordpress all in one event calendar categories in tabs tabbed view

All we need is the shortcode (and a tab plugin or module, in this example I was using the tabs module from DIVI theme, but you will find many good WordPress plugins that give you this functionality).

Put the All-in-One Event Calendar shortcodes into the tabs, with the cat_name different in each tab, e.g. [ai1ec view=”agenda” cat_name=”seminar”]. You can also use the tags for the tabbed view. In this example I used the categories for the type of event, and the tags for the subjects. Take a look at all the shortcode options of the All-in-One Event Calendar.

This is it already. What looked as a great deal for so long, now turned out to be peanuts. I removed the category filter, since it doesn’t make sense anymore because we now show all categories in once in our tabs. You need to replace the #post-203 with the number of your post you are using the tabbed view.

And that’s it. Enjoy your wonderful tabbed view of your precious events and grant your visitors another cherry of pleasurable experience.
