Hey there and thanks for getting in touch!
We’d be happy to help — but I do want to note that our pre-sales forum is used to answer questions about purchasing our premium plugins.
If you’re looking for technical support, it would be awesome if you could post your question to our WordPress.org support forum.
Or, if you already have an active license for one of premium plugins, will you please log into your account? I will move this thread to our Events Calendar PRO forum, but you will need to log into your account to reply.
In the meantime, it sounds like your site may use a custom query to display blog posts and, if that’s the case, the setting in The Events Calendar will not work because it is meant to work with the default WordPress query for blog posts on the homepage. You may want to reach out directly to the theme developer in that case for tips on a filter you could use to add the tribe-events post type to the query to the custom query.
Thanks so much!
Geoff
