# Events Calendar Pro 5.4.0.1

### Summary

Hotfix Release

This hotfix version of Events Calendar Pro includes a fix for the Events List Widget shortcode to make the taxonomy filters applied to it work as expected.

This is a hotfix release, meaning that it’s focused on fixing a specific bug only.

As always, we recommend updating on a [staging site](https://docs.nexcess.com/software/the-events-calendar/creating-and-using-a-wordpress-staging-site/), just to be safe, but it should all be smooth sailing.
