Change Title Name

Hello,

How do I change the Title Name of my new calendar? It currently show the demo name “tribe_events”. I cannot locate where to change it: http://theartsadvocacyproject.com/events/

Thank you,
MonaE

Good evening Mona and welcome to the Events Calendar Support forum!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

It sounds like your WordPress theme is struggling with finding the appropriate title.
Try temporarily reverting back to a default WordPress theme such as twenty-sixteen to see what I mean.

Thankfully, this is usually very easy to fix by either:

1. Tweaking your WordPress theme files
2. Using a code snippet.

To get started, I would recommend reading the following:

 

1. https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/titles-in-yoast-seo/
2. https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/configuring-the-events-calendar-with-constants/

Could you please send me a copy of the latest version of your WordPress theme / child theme via a link to a .zip file link (stored Dropbox or Google Drive) so that I can run some tests on my end ? I recommend a private reply for that purpose.

Please ensure you are using the latest files as found on your actual website.
This way I will get access to any updates or customizations you might have made.

Best regards,

Geoff B.

Good evening Mona,

Thank you for the files.

As I suspected, the issue stems from the theme.
There are 2 approaches to this:

1. Head over to Events -> Settings -> Display and select Default Event Template under Events Template
2. Customize the /wp-content/themes/eventum/lib/sub-header.php file (using your child theme)More specifically you will need to either:

   a) Change the returned title for Archives
   b) Add the code below at line 17 of that file

if ( is_post_type_archive( 'tribe_events' ))
{
echo ('Calendar');
}

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Hey MonaE,

I am glad my suggestion helped out.

Regarding the Google Map not displaying, it looks like you will need to setup your Google API exactly as instructed here: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/setting-up-your-google-maps-api-key/

Currently, Google is returning an invalid API error message.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Thank you Geoff,

It is working. One more questions please.
How do I make the email an active link in the events? See page:
http://theartsadvocacyproject.com/event/visions-art-show-auction/
Under organizer, the email is not active.

Good evening Mona,

First off, I would like to apologize for the delay answering.
We are currently experiencing a higher level of requests than usual.

To make matters even worst, this coincided with our annual team retreat which makes up for an overall really long reply time.

Please rest assured that we are working hard at correcting this situation.
We appreciate your patience while we try to normalize things.

You could apply the following snippet in the functions.php file of your theme (without the PHP tag at the top): https://gist.github.com/GeoffEW/4ccef04ab841c0be2e1083b0733057cd

But first to be extra safe, before making any changes to your functions.php file, you should make a backup of that file.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
