In LiveWhale 2.x and before, the “categories” widget variable shows a text-only list of event types.

Since LiveWhale 2.21, you can set these to be links (which lead to other calendar results for the same event type) using the following config option:

$_LW->CONFIG['USE_CATEGORY_LINKS_IN_EVENTS_WIDGETS']=true; // link to each category result when using {categories} in widget formatting

This will become default behavior in LiveWhale 3.0.

Note: Enabling this feature also affects {{ categories }} and {{ obj.categories }} in the event and event detail components of your calendar theme. If your theming displays event types (categories) in the individual calendar results, please check your theming on dev before enabling this flag on production. With the flag enabled, {{ categories }} will be returned as a single HTML string, rather than the JS array that was previously returned.
