2 small issues, 1 very confused site owner!

Good evening Stephen and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for your interest in our products.
We’ll be glad to answer your questions.

1. Before I had created any events, the plugin created an event by itself, and it wasn’t a template example, it was an actual event of ours with the correct location, imagery etc. Where in the world did that come from?

This is an intriguing question. I am not sure exactly.
I guess I would need to see the event in question.

Would you happen to have the URL of that event on hand ?

2. I’m looking to put my calendar on a specific page, with other content. Where can I find the shortcode for my calendar please?

Sure thing.

The 2 following articles should provide you with the complete list of all shortcodes:

1. https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/embedding-calendar-views-tribe_events-shortcode/
2. https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/pro-widget-shortcodes/

Have a great day!

Good evening Stephen,

Thank you for writing back.

I really do not know what happened with that automatically created event ?
I have been doing this for a while, and it is the first I have heard of this.

If you want to investigate further, you would need to look at the database directly, or at least look at the published date and the author of the event.

I wish I had a better answer for you, but for now it’s the best one I have unfortunately.

Best regards,

Geoff B.
