ParticipantHello.
I recently upgraded to the new calendar pro but can’t get the calendar to work properly after following the 4 part Genesis video tutorials. Maybe there is something I’m missing… A few issues:1. First event in pop up preview (calendar view) gets cut off at the top, i.e. the title doesn’t show. – RESOLVED
2. When I visit an event the breadcrumbs says “You are here: Home” and links to front page. i.e. The changes I made to breadcrumbs are not working correctly. (Is it necessary to have breadcrumbs on all pages except homepage? I would like to disable it on posts.)3. Event calendar view shows “author” and “leave a comment” even though there is no comments enabled for the page.
4. What is the best way to modify the events list so it automatically shows a short preview of the event without having to use the more tag? http://www.latinrecap.com/events/upcoming/
5. The passed events have the “show google map” option unchecked, is there a way to turn it on for all the previous events? if that option is unchecked it looks strange. e.g. http://www.latinrecap.com/event/bareto-at-stage-48/How can I preserve all the changes I have made so far? and will they work when the 3.0 update is available or when I change my theme?
Thanks.

MemberHi latinrecap,
Let’s start with the first issue (pop ups being cut off). Your stylesheet contains this rule around 854:
.entry-content { overflow: hidden; }Can you change hidden to visible and see if that resolves this?

ParticipantYes, that solved the first issue!
Thanks Barry!April 7, 2013 at 6:17 am #45104Barry
MemberGreat 😀
For the second issue with breadcrumbs, are you finding that you cannot deactivate them via the options in Genesis > Theme Options > Breadcrumbs?

ParticipantNo that’s not a problem, I can uncheck when to use the breadcrumbs in the theme options. The issue is when I go to a single event and venue, it says “You are here: Home”. and it’s a link to the homepage (latinrecap.com)
New issue I just noticed:
The first event on the Event List shows an excerpt with a different font and size compared to the other events below it.
http://www.latinrecap.com/events/upcoming/How can I make them all the same so they match the first event on the list?

MemberSo I tried this with the News theme (which it looks like you are using) however on single events for me the breadcrumb trail looks like Home > Event Name – perhaps you’ve made some customizations to your theme, or another plugin or setting is impacting somehow?
Regarding the event calendar view, can you try adding this snippet to your theme’s functions.php file?

MemberPlease also break out any new issues into new threads, otherwise tracking which we have solved and which need further attention will rapidly become quite confusing. Thanks! 🙂

Participantok thanks I will do that.
I have added the code above to my functions.php but doesn’t seem to have made any changes. Here you can see my code:

MemberLooks to me like it’s gone – isn’t this the page you were referring to when you wrote “event calendar view”?

ParticipantI temporarily disabled the breadcrumbs until the problem is fixed, many people are checking the site and didn’t want to cause confusion. Are the breadcrumbs necessary? The issue was occurring on the individual events pages, not the the main calendar page.

MemberWhat is the value of Events > Settings > Template > Events Template? Can you try changing it to Default Page Template (unless it’s already at that setting) or otherwise playing with it?
My guess is that it is currently set to something like Blog and therefore the layout inherits the traits of blog posts.

ParticipantYes that seems to be the problem, the events are registering as posts and not pages in both the Default Page Template and the Default Events Template. Tried using both with the same result.
Maybe i made a mistake when trying to follow the instructions in the tutorial? Is it safe to replace the “events” folder and “includes” folder on my site with the files provided in the genesis-child download?

MemberDo you mean the download Jonah provided in his tutorial? What I’d suggest is giving it a go and restoring the originals if it doesn’t work.
