Calendar Page fine, but Event category pages always display as List

[Kenneth]

Hi All,
I need to always display event category lists as the grid. When I go to the main Calendar page it displays the grid. I have default view set to Month. But when I click on the Event Category in my main navigation, the display is set to list by default. I tried disabling the “List” view in settings, but that caused the Event Category page to go blank, with no warnings and no errors.
So how do I get all my event category pages to show up as Month/Grid? And how can I disable List view without event category pages going blank? Could this be a bug?
Here’s the main events page on my dev server: http://obeliskwebdesign.com/sandbox/sacredheart/events/
And an Event Category page: http://obeliskwebdesign.com/sandbox/sacredheart/events/category/regular-mass-times/
Thanks for your help,
Daniel

Hi Kenneth,

This is indeed a bug and we’ve got it on our radar. We will hopefully be able to get a solution out there in one of our upcoming maintenance releases.

Thanks for your patience!

I’m having this problem as well and honestly would not have updated if I had known it would be a problem in advance. My users specifically request the calendar view. Will be anxious for this bug to be fixed as soon as possible.

I searched deep in core, it seems that is a rewrite url problem.

Check the file lib\the-events-calendar.class.php, public function filterRewriteRules, line 2334:
– – – –
$newRules[$baseTax . ‘([^/]+)$’] = ‘index.php?post_type=’ . self::POSTTYPE . ‘&eventDisplay=upcoming&tribe_events_cat=’ . $wp_rewrite->preg_index(2);
– – – –

Comment that line, go to /wp-admin/options-permalink.php in order to reset the permalink structure (you don’t need to save in that page, just go there).

Now the events category will open in grid.

I believe it is essentially a rewrite problem and if you want to try the steps outlined by Roberto please feel free (thanks Roberto!) … do be aware that changes to core plugin code are likely to be wiped out upon updating, however, so although ideally we will anyway have a fix in place soon just keep in mind that you may need to re-establish this.
