    I am using a Twenty-Eleven child theme. (I cannot test by reverting to the default Twenty-Eleven because the functions for displaying the calendar on the home page are in the child theme.)
    The new update to 3.5 took out all the event titles and the line showing how many comments there are in the posts on the front page. It also enlarged the font size in the calendar on the front page so that Wednesday and Thursday overlap. See before and after images at

    Without the headers in the post, no one can go to the event post. Please help.

    Hi: I’m sorry the update didn’t go smoothly for you. Can you provide some example URLs for me to look at and some guidance as to which titles are missing? On visiting your site, I see event titles in both month and list view.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Barry. I’ve replied with screen captures and zips of related child theme files in a separate email.

    Well, that bounced. I will repeat the email message below but I don’t know how to submit the zip file for you to look at. You will need to look at the screen captures here:

    Screen captures: two each before (Good…) and after (Bad…) screen captures. They show the two problems (it only affects the home page calendar view)–not the calendar calendar view). The problems show on the home page: http://events.stcwdc.org

    1- The header in the month calendar has increased the font size and the words scrunch together.
    2- The headers for all posts in the main blog loop are missing–this affects the post / event title and the number of comments bubble. Without the headers, no one can click on the post or event. It is curious that this problem affects the headers for both Event posts and regular posts so I am wondering if it is a problem in the functions.php file. (I’ve attached a copy of the child theme’s functions.php file so you can see the five mods there for the Events Calendar–3 in the middle and 2 at the bottom. Look for the ones marked “// Events Calendar fix”)

    Our chapter members wanted to see the month view on the home page so ModernTribe support figured out a way to do that with modifications to the plugin in the Twenty Eleven child them.
    1- An addition to the themes’ index.php file
    <?php /* Start the Loop */ ?>

    <?php
    //
    // Put Events Calendar version 3 on home page
    //
    tribe_show_month();
    ?>

    <?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>

    2- Plus other mods to the functions.php file
    “So after consulting a few team members we came up with this as a customized solution:

    First you will have to add this code (from the link) to your functions.php file:
    https://gist.github.com/neillmcshea/e02186aa700db743aa41

    This will ensure all that the proper css and javascript have been enqueued in the theme header.”

    The full discussion is in
    https://tri.be/support/forums/topic/lost-display-of-calendar-on-home-page-after-update-to-3-0-1/

    Supposedly, putting the month view on the home page was supposed to become an option in a future update but it still isn’t provided as an option.

    I have added a zip file of all the workarounds done for the calendar in my child theme if that helps. There are additional style mods in the child style.css starting at Line 382 marked by

    /* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ EVENTS CALENDAR STYLES ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ */
    /* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*/

    I use this same style sheet (minus the Events Calendar styles) in two other subdomains of the site and the headers all appear there.
    http://wdcb.stcwdc.org
    http://jobs.stcwdc.org

    The headers all work in other pages on the http://events.stcwdc.org site just not in the main posting loop.
    Cheers,

    Cynthia, try adding the following to your theme’s style.css

    header.entry-header { display: block !important; }

    This was from Conflicting CSS for entry header.

    Thanks Andy. That is close. It helped a bit with the month display in the calendar on the home page but it affected the widget headers. They are now a long stretch of hyphenated words. See the sidebar in http://events.stcwdc.org

    Additionally, it did not help with the display of the headers in the posts in the loop.

    Interesting–I took out the add to the css and things went back to “normal”. I put it back into the css and uploaded that but the same thing did not happen. It had effect on the month calendar header or the headers in the sidebar. Now I’m confused!

    @Andy Fragen Thanks for including the link to the WordPress Plugins forum about this problem. I now see why the headers are missing but don’t understand why ModerTribe would do a display:none for the headers. Anyway, I disabled the plugin and reinstalled the-events-calendar 3.4.1. All post headers are back now and the month view head day header is back to a smaller font so the words don’t overlap.

    Looks like new CSS in updated version of the event plugin in file: tribe-events-full.min.css is interfering with proper display of elements

    header.entry-header, footer.entry-meta { display: none }

    What would be the proper way to address this issue?

    In the interim, I have added this to the child theme.

    header.entry-header, footer.entry-meta { display: block !important; }

    Just remember to remove these once the official fix is out. 😉

    Has tri.be acknowledged the issue and provided a commitment to fix in next release?

    Deep cleansing breath. Remember, it’s a weekend. It is abundantly clear from this post and posts in the .org forum that a problem exists. I’m quite certain that they are both aware and working towards a solution.
