Event categories (tags, labels)

Event categories are also referred to as tags and labels. In a nutshell, it is used to classify events. You can assign an unlimited number of categories to each event and afterwards you can find events by those tags as well as create event pages which filter events by category.

For example, you might classify events like this: Social, Learning, Fundraising. These are tags.
Then you can have three events classified like this:

event 1: Social, Fundraising
event 2: Social, Learning
event 3: Fundraising

Now you can create several event pages which will list different selections of events, for example:

Event list page A: Social
event 1
event 2

Event list page B: Fundraising
event 1
event 3

Event list page C: All events
event 1
event 2
event 3
