Hello, you recenty gave me some advice in the following thread that I raised:
You advised me to follow the advice in this support thread:
The thread didn’t suggest where to put the code snippet but I found it worked fine when I tested it out in the plugin template file:
filtebar/src/tribe/view.php
But I don’t want to customise the plugin files, instead to deal with it in my theme files – but having problems with this. Following the instructions in the themers guide I created a new folder in my existing tribe-events folder in my theme
tribe-events/filter-bar/src/Tribe/view.php and then added the snippet to view.php (having removed it from the original in the plugin folder). But no joy… must be missing something obvious but can’t figure out what? Can you offer some advice? Thanks,
Hi Antony. Welcome to WordPress customizing!
Best practice for adding custom code (like to implement a PHP snippet like https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/position-of-filter-bar-in-template/#post-847145) is to create a functionality plugin, unless it’s something specific to your theme, in which case best practice is to make sure you’re using a child theme, then add the customization to your child theme’s functions.php file.
If you’re new to this, it’s easiest to just add it to the bottom of your active theme’s functions.php file.
I hope this information helps!
