Creating links to a calendar filtered by Taxonomy Term

If your site has the Soapbox CMS (Does my site have the Soapbox CMS?), and if you have a calendar menu item and are using Taxonomy to apply terms to your Soapbox Events, you can create links which pre-filter the events displayed on the calendar to match only that term.

To do so, you'll need the Id of the Taxonomy term. This can be found by doing the following:

• Go to Components > Taxonomy > Terms Manager
• Find the term with which you wish to filter
• Note the ID number in the far right column of the table

Once you have the term, you can add it to the end of the url you are using to direct people to your calendar like this:

www.mysite.org/calendar?term=ID

This can be done whether or not you have the Filter By Terms drop down enabled for your calendar.
