Filters and Search Bar

[cnh]

Hello there!

We are using Events Calendar PRO and so far, we are lovin’ it! We have a few questions though.

1. Here’s our link: Events.Careers
On our landing page, when you click on ‘Collapse Filters’ from the filter bar, it will show all filter categories and some text. BUT what we want is for it to only show ‘Show Filters’. So we need some help with that – when we click on ‘Collapse Filters’, we want it to hide all text and categories and only show ‘Show Filters’ and centered. Screenshot below.

2. Currently, our Events Search bar is only present on our homepage http://events.careers/events/. What we want, however, is that it can be seen on all pages. How do we do that? Screenshot below

Thank you,

Rachel,
Thanks for reaching out. Can you try temporarily reverting to the default 2013 theme to see if these issues persists? I suspect that this is an issue with your theme, but just want to narrow it down a bit before troubleshooting further. Give that a try and let us know the outcome. Thanks! 🙂

Hi Casey,

Thank you for your suggestion. It fixed issue #1. Issue #2, however, is still existing. Please help.

Thank you.

Rachel,
Unfortunately our plugin does not easily support adding the Tribe bar to the single events page. In order to do this, you could perform a template override and pull in the tribe bar PHP code in your single-event.php file:


<?php tribe_get_template_part( 'modules/bar' ); ?>


After you pulled in the tribe bar however, it wouldn’t really be wired up to do anything since it relies heavily on javascript. Since I’ve never done that, I’d have to leave that part up to you.

Ultimately, if this is something you’d like to see in a future release, I would suggest submitting it as an idea on our UserVoice page. Our team periodically reviews the most popular ideas for possible inclusion in a future release of the plugin.

Thanks! 🙂

Dear Casey,
I see. Thank you. Our developer tried the template override you suggested, and yes, you’re right. It’s not doing anything. I know you said that you haven’t done it before but do you have an idea / suggestion on how we can fix the javascript for this to work?
Thank you for your patience.

Or maybe point us to the part where we can edit to fix the javascript issue? Thanks much. – Rachel

Rachel,
Unfortunately, since I’ve never taken on a customization like this, I can’t really help much more beyond the guidance I’ve already given, except for telling you that all of the javascript files used in the plugin are located in the ‘resources’ folder. We don’t have any safe overrides to use when editing javascript, so just keep in mind that any changes you make will be overwritten when you update the plugin.

Hopefully that helps get you pointed in the right direction. Good luck! 🙂

Great! Thanks for confirming that this got you sorted. Since it looks like you’re all set, I’m going to mark this thread “Answered” and close it out.

By the way, if you have a minute or two, we would love it if you’d write a few words for us here: http://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/the-events-calendar?filter=5

Thanks in advance. 🙂

Cheers,
Casey
