Term Events Block
The Term Event Block Embed is a block that can be placed on a page to display news of a selected Event Category.
Events by Category Block
The Events by Category block is a custom block that displays events from a selected event category. The Event by Category block relies on the Term Events Block module to provide functionality. The Events by Category block can be placed as a custom PB block on a basic page, landing page, or by directly placing a Term Events Block block in a region.
Events by Category blocks have three layout display styles to choose from: full width list with thumbnail images, 3 cards or 4 cards.
See Example: Term Events Block | CFW3
