I have tried to get this today but I can’t seem to make it work. This is my code:

div class=“elfsight-app-371833f1-7b43-42d3-bab6-04691c5849dc” data-elfsight-app-lazy data-elfsight-app-filter-event-type=“MENS”

What have I done wrong?

Hi @Leigh_Manning 👋

I’ve inspected your website’s code and don’t see the added filter attribute there:

Could you please double-check whether you’ve saved the changes?

It is saved and is used on 5 separate pages. The one in particular is here: [https://bawburgh.com/xmenssection](https://bawburgh.com/xmenssection)

@Leigh_Manning We’ve double-checked things and, unfortunately, the widget version wasn’t updated after the feature release. We’ve updated it for you and now everything is working fine 🙂

I’m having the same issue, I can’t seem to filter on the event-type. You can see this page: [Test](https://rughook.com/pages/test)

Hi there @Chris_Pattacini1 👋

I’ve checked your widget and found that you have all filters disabled. I’ve enabled Event Type filter on the Layout tab of your widget’s setting and now everything is working as expected:

Check it out and let me know if you like what you see 🙂
