Advanced Template Settings before event content not showing on main Calendar View

[Jeff Davis]

Hello-

I’d like to add instructions on how to use the calendar view mode. My client’s customers are not computer savvy and they want this above the calendar view “Click on the event within the calendar to view the details.”. This statement only appears on the single Event pages.

How do I add to the TOP of the main Calendar View page?

Hi Patty and excellent question!

I suspect that you have the “Default Page Template” as your template settings on the same screen. Is this correct? If so, that’s the reason that the content you entered would show on the single event (which uses the plugin’s template) but not the main calendar (which is set to the theme’s page template).

You can set this back to “Default Event Template” to get the text in there.

Another way to go about it is with a function–perhaps in your theme’s functions.php file or as a standalone plugin. Here’s an example of what that might look like. Note that you can also change tribe_events_before_html to tribe_events_before_template and that might have the same effect.

Let me know if that does the trick. 🙂
