How do I activate and integrate The Event Calendar Pro with my purchased theme?

[Earl]

All I am asking your support people to do is make all of my “event” pages functional, beginning with this page from my site: https://www.coolpac.us/_php/party.php. I want visitors to our site to be able to view events, buy tickets to events, or mark their calendars to attend events. If it means establishing a link to a new domain to make Event Calendar Pro workable, that’s fine with me. Design Crumbs wants me to purchase its WordPress version of its template for an additional $43. How is it that Events Calendar Pro works from his domain and not mine?

Hi Earl,

The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO will generally run on any supported version of WordPress without problems. When I look at the URL you shared when you opened this thread, though, I’m not sure you are actually running WordPress.

Can you confirm that URL is correct, or point me to your actual WordPress site?

Hi Earl,

However, that’s where the problem starts. When I try to upload the theme I purchased from designcrumbs.com, WordPress rejects the .zip file for the theme.

So I’m not sure what the particular error message you’re seeing is, but perhaps your file permissions need to be adjusted? Ultimately, though, I’m not sure we can offer too much help with theme installation issues and it would be best to approach the theme vendor (Design Crumbs?) for assistance on that count.

The URL for my WordPress site is http://your-site.com/wordpress/.

(I’ve adapted the URL slightly since you posted it within a private reply) So I can access that and can access your events page at …/wordpress/?post_type=tribe_events, so it looks like The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO are set up correctly and are running as expected.

The URL for my website is https://your-site.com/_php/index.php, and for the events page on the site, it is https://your-site.com/_php/party.php.

So if I’m understanding you correctly, you don’t want people to visit …/wordpress/?post_type=tribe_events to see the calendar and instead you wish them to visit …/_php/party.php — is that accurate?

If so, that’s the sort of customization you would need to drive forward yourself. Is there some reason you can’t simply use the WordPress site itself instead of trying to pull things into a set of custom, non-WordPress templates?

If I am misunderstanding please just let me know, but it sounds like you have a fairly atypical setup here and that’s not really something we can support.

Hi! It’s been a while so I’m going to go ahead and close this thread. If we can help with anything else, though, please don’t hesitate to create new threads as needed. Thanks!
