I want to make sure I have the correct product

[Joshua Bacorn]

Hello I purchased the Community Events plugin because I’m trying to duplicate a page from a friend of mine’s website…

https://myscottsvalley.com/events/community/add

My website is http://yourgilroy.com/

As you will see his calendar looks different then mine in the right side sidebar and he has the page that a 3rd party can post their own event…

I’m fairly new at this but can I do these 2 things with the product I have?

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Good evening Joshua and welcome to the Events Calendar Support forum!

Thank you for reaching out to us.
I would love to help you with this topic.

I’m fairly new at this but can I do these 2 things with the product I have?

The short answer is yes, you should be able to do exactly the same.
I can assist you with getting the elements in place, and give you a couple of pointer for the look as well.

As a first step, please make sure you go through the following 2 guides step-by-step (every detail is important):

1. http://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/new-user-primer-the-events-calendar-and-events-calendar-pro/
2. http://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/new-user-primer-community-events/

Secondly, it is very important that there are no “real pages” created that share the same URL as our calendar (as defined in Events -> Settings -> General).

The calendar needs absolute exclusivity over that URL (in your case: http://yourgilroy.com/events/)

Finally, please try a couple of different settings for Events Template under Events -> Settings -> Display.

Let me know how that goes.

Best regards,
Geoff B.

I have tried all of that and I still cannot get my calendar to look the same and cannot get the add an event page to work and look like his…

I apologize

Hey there! This thread has been pretty quiet for the last three weeks, so we’re going to go ahead and close it to avoid confusion with other topics. If you’re still looking for help with this, please do open a new thread, reference this one and we’d be more than happy to continue the conversation over there.

Thanks so much!
