The Events Calendar Pro Filter Bar Addon is a valuable tool designed to enhance the usability of your event calendar by allowing users to easily find relevant events based on their preferences. Here’s what the Filter Bar addon offers:
- Configurable Filters: The addon provides a set of configurable filters that users can use to refine their event searches. These filters include Event Category, post tag, venue, organizer, day of the week, time of day, and price.
- Compatibility: The Filter Bar addon seamlessly integrates with both The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO, ensuring compatibility with these popular event management plugins.
- Customization Options: You have the flexibility to choose which filters are available to users on the front end of your website. This allows you to tailor the filtering options to meet the specific needs of your audience.
- Horizontal or Vertical Layout: Depending on your website layout and design preferences, you can opt for a horizontal filter bar placed under the search options, which works well for narrow sites and mobile devices. Alternatively, you can choose a vertical layout similar to a sidebar, ideal for full-width calendars.
- Distance Filter (with Events Calendar PRO): For users of Events Calendar PRO, the Filter Bar addon includes a distance filter to complement PRO’s location search feature. This allows users to filter events based on proximity to their location.
By incorporating the Filter Bar addon into your event calendar setup, you can improve user experience, increase engagement, and make it easier for visitors to discover events that match their interests and criteria.
