Category label not shown in single event view

[Oliver]

Hi,

in the latest version of TEC I might found a bug in the single event view.

The category label is not shown when there is more that one category selected.

Example:
A) Only one category (works):

B) More than one category (don’t work):

Do you have any idea how to fix this?

Best regards,
Oliver

Hi Oliver,

This seems to be a translation problem.

In this particular scenario, we try to pull in the translation of %s Categories with an _n() call (which lets us switch between singular and plural forms).

However, although we do have a translation in most languages – German included – for %s Categories it has not been setup in such a way that it can be used through _n(). I don’t see an obvious way to get around this on our translation site and it may be we need to reconfigure a couple of things on our end before we can make that happen.

Please bear with me and we’ll see what we can do to fix this 🙂

Hi Oliver,

A change to how we use that string within the code should be available in the next release – allowing it to be correctly translated. Until then, could you add this snippet to your theme’s functions.php file (or some other suitable location) and see if that helps?

function temp_fix_998208( $text ) {
	return str_replace( '<dt>:</dt>', '<dt>EVENT CATEGORIES:</dt>', $text );
}

add_filter( 'tribe_get_event_categories', 'temp_fix_998208' );

Of course, modify EVENT CATEGORIES to whatever makes sense here.

Hi Barry!

That works like a charm! Thanks for the quick bugfix!

Cheers,
Oliver
