Highlighted events not showing in the sidebar

[Matthias Berkemeyer]

Hi there,
at first, great plugin.

But my current problem: I have any events, some recurring and some once-only. Creating a once-only I hihglighted these events (and permanent showing in the monthly view). Now the list in the sidebar for upcoming events doesn’t show the once-only events, there is only white space (and I can still click on this wihte space and get to the event-page). If I create a once-only event without highlightning, the event is showing in the sidebar.

Any ideas to fix this?

Hi Matze!

Thanks for reaching out to us and for the kind words 🙂

I’m sorry you are experiencing that issue.

Unfortunately, I could replicate it in my own site and it seems to be there is a problem with the styles resulting in the usual blue background for the featured events not applying to them.

I have logged a bug report for this so the dev team will address it in one of our next maintenance releases.

I will set this thread’s status to “Pending fix” and link it to the report. This way we’ll let you know as soon as a bugfix is released.

As a workaround, you could add the following CSS styles in your theme’s styles.css file or by using the WordPress customizer in Appearance > Customize > Additional CSS:

.tribe-mini-calendar-list-wrapper .tribe-event-featured {
background: #0ea0d7;
}

Let me know if that works for you.

My apologies for this inconvenience and we’d appreciate your patience.

Best,
Victor

Hi Victor,
thanks for the fast help.

Your solution is working, but not right. I put your code in the CSS style but unfortunately I still can’t see any highlighted events in “Upcoming event (or in german “Anstehende Veranstaltungen”) but now I can see highlighted events in the list under the mini-calender. In the widget “This week” I can also see this kind of events, but that was ok before.

Regards
Matze

Hi Matze!

Good to hear that worked for the mini calendar widget. I actually thought the problem was in that widget only.

I can’t seem to find where those upcoming events are. Could you please share a link to where I can see those?

Thanks,
Victor

Hi Victor,
of course. Please take a look at this site http://squashclub-karlsruhe.de/ueber-den-verein
On the right side you can 3 of your widgets, mini-calender with 3 upcoming events, events this week “Diese Woche”
(there is everything fine) and lowest upcoming events “Anstehende Veranstaltungen”. You can still see a white gap in the lowest widget between the 18th and 19th August. If I change the settings and going to use some filters (catergory), then there is only white space (but it’s clickable with the mouse and you can mark the text also with the mouse). You can find the missing event in the upper widgets (called “Clubabend-Turnier”)

I hope my explanation is ok?

Regards
Matze

Hi Matze!

Thanks for coming back with that. Your explanation was perfect!

Please try replacing the last code I sent you by the following one instead:

.tribe-events-adv-list-widget .tribe-event-featured, .tribe-mini-calendar-list-wrapper .tribe-event-featured {
background: #0ea0d7;
}

I tried it on your site by inspectin the page and it seemed to work. Please let me know if it works for you.

Thanks,
Victor
