I have the same question. I'm building a calendar that is showcasing events for a client who runs a large community recycling centre. They do education as well as run multiple collection programs at their depot, including hosting workshops and other community programming. They also want a recent news blog reel.
For ease of my clients editing, I was hoping to have only one blog reel and use tags to distinguish between type of news (i.e. categories = opportunities, service, program, event). I'd like the calendar to show items tagged with 'events'. The reason I don't just create two reels (one for latest news and other for events only) and have one showcase on the calendar is because there are examples of where the client might post about service updates and facility closures, which might not be the same as their public facing events (like community workshop for example) but would still be useful in showing up in the events calendar. In other cases, they may post about service news which would not be appropriate for the events calendar (for example, a certain collection program has closed).
I hope this makes sense and someone might be able to tell me if there is a way to filter calendar items from the news reel by category. Thank you!!
