We have an event listings page that contains a filter to select from a range of event categories and I want to see if it's possible to provide a url that, when visited, will have automatically applied the filter?
For example, our events page is site.com/events/ when on there you click the dropdown and select one of the eight event categories is there a way to append the url to something like site.com/events/category1 so it is already filtered for that category? I've tried adding the category url title, category id etc... but still just gives me an unfiltered event list.
UPDATE As an example, we have various categories of news items that produces the url site.com/news/c/category_name so I would assume that I could produce the same for events using site.com/events/c/category_name however this doesn't filter them and just shows me all events, I've tried using category_URl and category_ID but none of these work.
