    Hello,

    I’m wondering how to include a filter using categories with the [upcoming_list] shortcode. Specifically, I would like to EXCLUDE a category from showing up on the birthday list. I am using the Birthday Light 2.0.1 template.

    My current setting is

    [upcoming_list categories="xxxx" list_type='birthday' days=365 show_lastname=true]

    but all contacts are showing up in the list, rather than just the “xxxx” contacts.

    Thanks!

    Sorry, but the [upcoming_list] shortcode does not have a category filter. Presently, only the Upcoming Anniversaries/Birthday widget included in the Widget Pack includes this feature as well as several others not present using the shortcode. Using the widget, you have the option of using it as a shortcode, however, the display will be very different. The [upcoming_list] shortcode displays as a table whereas the widget will display as a list.

    I hope this answers your question thoroughly!
