Show "Upcoming Events" in all categories

[Moin]

By default, the event list only returns the events for the current category. There is a value transformer (discourse-calendar-upcoming-events-show-cross-category) that you can use to change that.

You create a new theme component (I think it’s better when it’s loaded early, so use something like “aaa all events in each category” for the name).

@Moin

1. Go to your site’s admin panel and navigate to /admin/config/customize/components

2. Click the “Install” button at the top right

   

3. Select “+ Create new”, enter a name for your component (e.g. “My custom component”), choose “Component” as the type, and click “Create”
   

   

4. You are automatically redirected to the new component you created.

5. Add the component to the theme(s) you want to customize
   

   

   Don’t forget to save by clicking the green check mark

6. Click “Edit code”
   

   

In the JS tab, add this:

api.registerValueTransformer(
   "discourse-calendar-upcoming-events-show-cross-category",
   () => true
 );

So it looks like this:

Then save the code, and after a reload, you should be able to see all events in each category.

Screenshots from my testing:
The documentation category with all 3 events

And the same events also visible in the Test 3 category
