I usually use the shortcode [events_list scope=”today”] to display all the events of the current day on a page. If I want to automatically display all the events for this weekend on a page, what would the shortcode be that I should use? And the shortcode to display all the events for this month?”

Here’s some documentation on how to create custom scopes like “this-weekend” or “this-month”: https://wp-events-plugin.com/documentation/tutorials/create-your-own-event-scope/

It would look something like this:

add_filter( 'em_events_build_sql_conditions', 'my_em_scope_conditions',1,2);
function my_em_scope_conditions($conditions, $args) {
 if  (!empty($args['scope'])) {
   $set_scope = false;
   if( $args['scope']=='this-weekend' ) {
     $start_date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('next Saturday'));
     $end_date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('next Sunday'));
     $set_scope = true;

   }
   else if( $args['scope'] == 'this-month' ){
     $start_date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('first day of this Month'));
     $end_date = date('Y-m-d', strtotime('last day of this Month'));
     $set_scope = true;
   }
   if ( $set_scope == true ) {
     $conditions['scope'] = " (event_start_date BETWEEN CAST('$start_date' AS DATE) AND CAST('$end_date' AS DATE)) OR (event_end_date BETWEEN CAST('$end_date' AS DATE) AND CAST('$start_date' AS DATE))";
   }
 }
 return $conditions;
}
add_filter( 'em_get_scopes','my_em_scopes',1,1);
function my_em_scopes($scopes){
   $my_scopes = array( 'this-weekend' => 'This weekend', 'next-month' => 'This Month' );
   return $scopes + $my_scopes;
}

After that you can use the following shortcodes:

[events_list scope="this-weekend"]
[events_list scope="this-month"]
