[development] Calendar views filter issue

[Karyn Cassio]

Oh, so sorry, my bad, it just so happens I work with some amazing 
developers, and Adam Gregory helped me find the solution at work.

To fix this, you need to make sure that the filters set on your main 
view display, and your filters on your attachment are identical. (Not 
necessarily titles, etc.) But definitely parameters, such as fields you 
are filtering on, and values, etc. This will help them match up. So, 
inheritance in this case doesn't work exactly as you would expect.

By default, all calendar view filters are set the same, I had 
over-written many of the values in different views, instead of carrying 
the default display through the view. After matching taxonomy, the 
exposed taxonomy filters worked. For exposed date filters I had to use 
hook_views_query_alter, to alter the date query a bit depending on 
whether the page used the date navigation or the exposed filter.

I sure hope this helps, it certainly helped me.
