Embedding Month and Week view in my-template/tribe-events/single-event.php

[Russell Coon]

Hello,

I’m trying to embed the overall calendar on the top of the single event pages. I tried using:

<?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[tribe_events view=”month”]’); ?> (Which returns nothing)

and

<?php tribe_get_template_part( ‘month’ ); ?> (Which returns the calendar template but with an empty calendar)

Is this possible?

Hi Russel,

Thanks for getting in touch!

Please give me some time until I check if technically it is possible.

In the code you pasted you have used curly quotes. Those usually don’t work. If that’s the case then try correcting them to straight clothes, like this:

<?php echo do_shortcode( '[tribe_events view="month"]'); ?>

Cheers,
Andras

Thank you, I had used straight quotes but when I pasted the code into the forum it changed them to curly for some reason. I look forward to hearing your response.

There may be a handler in place that prevents this. Not to say it’s not doable, with some work. As a side note, [tribe_events_list] embeds just fine in single event. There’s also a GREAT plugin that will create widget areas on single events.

	/**
	 * Handler for the [tribe_events] shortcode.
	 *
	 * Please note that the shortcode should not be used alongside a regular event archive
	 * view nor should it be used more than once in the same request - or else breakages may
	 * occur. We try to limit accidental breakages by returning an empty string if we detect
	 * any of the above scenarios.
	 *
	 * This limitation can be lifted once our CSS, JS and template classes are refactored to
	 * support multiple instances of each view in the same request.
	 *
	 * @param $atts
	 *
	 * @return string
	 */

Hello Matthew and thanks for chiming in!

Both of your recommendations are totally viable, thanks!

@Russel, you can try those, or a colleague was kind enough to whip up the following snippet. This should do it as well:

add_action( 'tribe_events_before_view', function( $view ) {
    if ( false === strpos( $view, 'src/views/single-event.php' ) ) {
        return;
    }

    if ( ! class_exists( 'Tribe__Events__Pro__Shortcodes__Tribe_Events' ) ) {
        return;
    }

    $embedded_view = new Tribe__Events__Pro__Shortcodes__Tribe_Events( array(
        'view' => 'month'
    ) );

    echo $embedded_view->render_view();
} );

Let me know if that does the trick.

Cheers,
Andras

Yes, that snippet helped and I figured it out. Thank you!

[Andras]

Awesome! Super stoked to hear!
