Calendar sidebar on events pages without using template (Genesis)

[Simon]

Hi,

Love the plugin, but I’m not a great fan of template files.
I want to put a mini calendar in the sidebar of all event pages.
In Genesis functions.php + Event Rocket I had some success with:

add_action('wp_head','events_page');
function events_page() {
	if ( tribe_is_event()) {
		add_action( 'genesis_before_footer', 'event_sidebar' );
		function event_sidebar() {
			dynamic_sidebar('calendar');	
		}
	}
}

But it will require some styling and feels a bit messy and non-standard.

I’d like to know if you have the quick answer for enabling a sidebar on event pages.
(seems unlikely since it doesn’t follow standard Genesis hooks, so..)
– or –
The function for outputting the event page, so I can use it in a Genesis template.

Many thanks

I eventually did it with a template. In case anyone else asks, when using Genesis, a better default-template.php is as follows:

<?php
if ( ! defined( 'ABSPATH' ) ) {
	die( '-1' );
}

remove_action( 'genesis_before_loop', 'genesis_do_breadcrumbs' );

remove_action( 'genesis_loop', 'genesis_do_loop' );
add_action('genesis_loop','genesis_tribe');
function genesis_tribe() { ?>
	<div id="tribe-events-pg-template"><?php
		tribe_events_before_html();
		tribe_get_view();
		tribe_events_after_html(); ?>
	</div><?php
}
genesis();
?>
