Default view of site is not calander view

[Glenn]

Hi,

I’ve screwed something up and can’t work out what is causing it.

My default home page *used* to show upcoming events with photo as default. Now it is showing a weird view sorted by the Dashboard Event sort order (which is maybe oldest to newest).

If I choose a menu Events -> Upcoming Events then it displays as it used to.

I can’t get it to go back to the way it was. Any ideas? :'(

Regards,

Glenn

Note: I was playing with sitemap plugins prior to this happening. I removed them and noticed it messed up. I can’t recall which ones.

Hi,

I read through you message and not sure what the issue is.

So, are you talking about this page as the default home page:

http://onin.melbourne/events/

On that page it is showing you the Photo View, which is the default view you have selected on this page of your admin:

Events > Settings > Display Tab

When you click on this link from your front end navigation:

Events -> Upcoming Events (http://onin.melbourne/events/list/)

That is showing the List View as it is directly linking to the list view.

So not sure what the issue is, but if you can provide more information I can try to help out.

Thanks

Hi – Thanks for looking into it.

http://onin.melbourne/ should display the same as http://onin.melbourne/events/

It was displaying this way with the next upcoming events shown in Photo view (With the title Upcoming Events above it). For some reason now it is displaying the next event as one in Sept followed by one in Dec followed by one in March.

I hope I am making some sense. 🙂

Regards,

Glenn.

To clarify – The order the default home page is displaying the events is (I believe) in the order the event was entered into the system. Not chronological from todays date. Also the view is not shown as the “Default” which is set as photo. Also there is no heading that normally contains “Upcoming Events”. But all of these are shown correctly if you select Events -> View Calendar from the WP Dashboard or from the site menu selecting Events -> Upcoming Events.

Well that was fun. I completely nuked my install. Reinstalled everything. Uploaded a SQL backup. reinstalled child theme. Reinstalled the plugins. Calendar/Pro still showed the home page screwed up.

Then I got to Event Rocket… One of its features is to display your calendar as the homepage. Reset that up and it is all working. (Except I still have to install a lot of other plugins…)

Seems one of the plugins switched that off – and I never thought it wasn’t a feature of Tribe.

Well – lesson learnt.

Regards,

Glenn.
