event cal pro dropping menus

[Matthew]

On this site: http://coachkevintucker.com/ i have a number of menus in place. in the header and footer templates.

But on the event grid, list and single views, they all drop, and its loading all pages in the header nav, and nothing in the footers. http://coachkevintucker.com/?post_type=tribe_events

I have changed the menus around, and even the template event cal is using, no luck.

WP 3.4, Event cal pro 2.0.7

Just a follow up test. I dropped my custom theme to try on a default 2012 theme. Same thing. the menu just completely drops to list all pages when you hit events.

Hey Matthew. Thanks for the note here; I have seen a couple reports of issues related to this since we launched 2.0.7 so it’s definitely possible that something is up – though I am unable to recreate it on my default 2011 theme (which is the latest default theme WP offers me in 3.4).

What happens if you enable a pretty permalinks structure, like /%postname%/ ? My guess is that will resolve this issue (we’re aware that default permalinks cause some problems and will have that fixed for 2.1), but if not I can bring a dev in to take a look directly. Thanks for your patience so far.

Hello,

Same problem on my site. Main menu disappears on the event grid and list views when default permalink structure is used. When I use pretty permalinks the menu is there, but then I have a different problem unrelated to the Events Calendar Pro plugin. A quick fix for this before the next update would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Can you guys please share exactly how you are creating the menu/theme locations and the code you are using in your templates to call the menus?

Thanks,
Jonah

Hey Jonah,
I used Bones starter theme (http://themble.com/bones/) to create the one I’m using.

function bones_theme_support() {
add_theme_support( 'menus' ); // wp menus
register_nav_menus( // wp3+ menus
array(
'main_nav' => 'The Main Menu', // main nav in header
'footer_links' => 'Footer Links' // secondary nav in footer
)
);
}
function bones_main_nav() {
// display the wp3 menu if available
wp_nav_menu(
array(
'menu' => 'main_nav', /* menu name */
'theme_location' => 'main_nav', /* where in the theme it's assigned */
'container_class' => 'menu clearfix', /* container class */
'fallback_cb' => 'bones_main_nav_fallback' /* menu fallback */
)
);
}
// this is the fallback for header menu
function bones_main_nav_fallback() {
wp_page_menu( 'show_home=Home&menu_class=menu' );
}
// in header.php

I hope that this is what you asked for.
Thanks.

Looks like permalinks took care of the issue. We planned on using them, just didnt do that yet since we were in production still.

Our menu call in: ‘Main’ )); ?>

[Matthew]

sorry, try this again:
php wp_nav_menu( array(‘menu’ => ‘Main’ ));

[Jonah]

Hey Matthew, so changing the permalinks worked for you? What did you change them to?

Hey Jonah,
Any thoughts on why the menu is not showing when default permalink structure is used?

Thanks!
