Hello,
I have activated “comments”, but I don’t see it on the event page. Where is it ??

Thanks

Hi Emmanuelle – there is unfortunately a known bug here that we hope to address shortly. Right now though if you familiarize yourself with the Themer’s Guide you can workaround this as follows:

1. Set up a custom single-event.php template (ie, in your-theme/tribe-events/single-event.php) and base this on the original in the-events-calendar/views/single-event.php.

2. Locate the following line of code:

<?php if( get_post_type() == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && tribe_get_option( 'showComments','no' ) == 'yes' ) { comments_template(); } ?>

3. Try changing this to:

<?php if( get_post_type() == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && tribe_get_option( 'showComments', false ) ) { comments_template(); } ?>

Does that help at all?

Hello Barry,

i have modified this but nothing change.

Hmm, ok. When you opened the ticket you noted that you tried switching to a default, unmodified theme and had turned off all other plugins: did the problem still persist under those conditions (including with the above change in place)?

I believe some work may also have been done in relation to comment support with our 3.3 release – so that could be worth checking out if you haven’t already done so.

It’s been a number of weeks without any follow up so I’ll go ahead and close the thread.

Of course if you still need support for this or any other issue please don’t hesitate to create a new thread or threads as required. Thanks!
