when I filter my events by location I get a calendar that schows all events according to this location.
when I use the catergory-filter-legend at the calendar I lose the location-filter-result an get only the categories.

Is it somehow possible to get all the events filtered by location and category?

Hello Berndi,

You need to keep the JEvents Filter module on the page to keep the previous filter :-)

Many thanks

Okay, I found the JEvents filter module and put it on the site.

The problem is, that the filter module dosen't get the location, when I use the "events by location" at the list of locations.

how can I pass the location to the filter module, when I use this way?

regards,
Berndi

Hello !

I added some code to the calendar template to detect the shown location.
    $tgs_bla = get_object_vars($event);

    $tgs_locations[] = $tgs_bla['_location'];



...



$hallencheck = 1;

$tgsinput = JFactory::getApplication()->input;



for ($tgs_count = 1; $tgs_count < count($tgs_locations); $tgs_count++) {

  $hallencheck = ($tgs_locations[$tgs_count - 1] == $tgs_locations[$tgs_count]) ? $hallencheck + 1 : $hallencheck - 1;

  }

if (count($tgs_locations) == $hallencheck) {

  $tgsinput->set( 'TGSLOC', $tgs_locations[0] );

  echo '<center><h1 id="TGSLOC" style="margin: 0 0 35px 0; font-weight: normal;">' . $tgs_locations[0] . '</h1></center>';

  }		

else {

  $tgsinput->set( 'TGSLOC', NULL );

  }

Now I can get my searchstring by calling 
JFactory::getApplication()->input->getString('TGSLOC', null, 'string');


Where do I have to put this string, that it will be called automatically, when I call the searchmodule?

regards

...and I found the Jevents-object wich contains the search-value


object(jevFilterProcessing)#1989 (7) { 

  ["filters"]=> array(2) { 

    [0]=> object(jevLocationsearchFilter)#1984 (16) { 

      ["filter_value"]=> string(0) "" 

      ....


How can I write my string to the filter_value?

Hello,

So you need to include the Locations filters in the filter module.

You can create your own filters too if you like. See:
https://www.jevents.net/docs/jevents/item/customizing-filters

Many thanks
