Display event categories in list view

[irishrunner16]

I’d like to get the event categories added to the events in List View. I tried adding <?php echo tribe_get_event_categories(); ?> to /tribe-events/list/single-event.php, but its not displaying quite as I’d like.

Basically, I want to have the label and categories displayed similarly to how they are on the single event pages (“Event Category” or “Event Categories” label, with each category separated by a comma and hyper linked), except I want the label and categories to display on the same line when displayed in List view.

I realize this is a customization topic and not support, so if anyone outside of MT has done something like this I’d certainly appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Hi Sean,

Instead of the function you tried would this work for you?

<?php echo Tribe_Register_Meta::event_category( 'tribe_event_category' ) ?>

Hey Barry, that’s pretty much what I’m looking for, thanks so much! Is there any way to customize the output so that the title and categories are displayed on one line?

There are a few avenues there – you could probably target it with CSS (and perhaps could wrap it in an additional div to help make it easy to specifically target this use case) – we’d need to leave that up to you, though.

Good luck 🙂

Ok thanks Barry! That helps point me in the right direction.
