Sharing links for Custom Event Categories

Do you have a Custom Event Category that is not embedded on it's own webpage? Many DXP Dashboard users utilize Custom Event Categories to sort and organize certain events, but it does not make sense to embed this category on a unique page. Holiday or seasonal events are a great example.

Sharing a link to that Custom Category:

To share a link to a Custom Category on your primary event calendar page is simple! Take the URL where your ITI Digital Event Calendar widget is embedded and follow this formula:

1. Event Calendar URL example:

https://savannahvirtualvisitorcenter.com/events/

2. Add the following subdomain to the end of your Events Calendar URL: ?ig-custom-events=

3. The link should look like this: 

https://savannahvirtualvisitorcenter.com/events/?ig-custom-events=

4. Copy the embed code for that Custom Event Category from the DXP Dashboard (click the copy button)

Paste the copied code, and take the category ID number (highlighted in bold)

<div id="imgoingcalendar-wrapper" route="/Savannah/events/custom-events/6491caecfd1a4c27395609ae" url-change="true">                <app-root></app-root>                <script type="text/javascript" src="https://imgoingcalendar.com/imgoingscript.js"></script>              </div>

5. Add the category ID number to the URL and subdomain from step 3: 

https://savannahvirtualvisitorcenter.com/events/?ig-custom-events=6491caecfd1a4c27395609ae 

Now you can share a link to your Event Calendar page, automatically pulling up a particular Custom Category to display. Don't hesitate to reach out to ITI Digital's Support Team if you have any questions about this process and uses!
