Conditional Tag Issues

[dalbeck]

Hey Everyone,

So having some trouble getting specific elements in my sidebar file to show up on the Events List, Calendar and Single event details page. I have been scouring Google and the site for quite some time now.. closest I could find was on the WordPress forums:
I found this:
http://pastebin.com/5wfnWSZt
didn’t work.. only shows the sidebar items on the single event details page also tried modifying this to be:
http://pastebin.com/5kQA8CP8

That didn’t work either. Any help would be great! Thank you.

Yeah.. tried that too .. no luck =/

[Jonah]

Can you share more examples or the full code you are working with? Please post to http://snippi.com/ or https://gist.github.com/

Thanks,
Jonah

This is my current sidebar file: http://snippi.com/s/7g3g9zh

Hmm, it looks like that should work. Have you tried taking out some of the conditions to see if any of them work? For example, stripping it all down to using just tribe_is_month() ?

Jonah,

I did try just doing them individually and that didn’t seem to work either.. any other thoughts? Right now on the Events List view my sidebar doesn’t display at all, and on the Calendar view it doesn’t either.

Ok Danny, sorry about that. Try this pattern instead:

if ( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'upcoming' || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'past' || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'month' && $query->query_vars['post_type'] == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && !is_tax(TribeEvents::TAXONOMY) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {
//your code here
}

Does that work at all?

Still nothing, heres my whole sidebar: http://pastebin.com/gfZW9wyH

Hmmm, actually the last conditional code I posted doesn’t work for me in Genesis but the original conditional do… Have you tried deactivating all other plugins? I wonder if something else is interfering?

– Jonah

[dalbeck]

Jonah,

Yeah, I tried disabling a ton of plugins.. still nothing =/ any other ideas?

[dalbeck]

Sorry for double post.. just found this in my error logs:
Call to undefined function tribe_is_archive()

I will play around with the conditional maybe that could be screwing it up?

[dalbeck]

Ok figured it out. Was missing a closing tag and calling 2 functions that didn’t exist: tribe_is_archive() and tribe_is_events. Once I deleted those from the condition everything works. Final line looks like this:

Hope this helps someone else… thanks for your help Jonah!

[dalbeck]

if((get_post_type() == ‘tribe_events’ && tribe_is_upcoming()) || tribe_is_month() || tribe_is_by_date() || tribe_is_month() && !is_tax() ) {

— Sorry didn’t post in the last message.. really sorry for like 3 extra posts.

[Jonah]

Hey Danny,

Phew, glad to hear you figured it out. Let us know if you need anything else.

Thanks,
Jonah
