Integration with WP templates

[Mike]

Can you explain exactly how TEC chooses it’s location on the page? Is it based on presence of the_content() ? I’ve got a template where I want to run a separate wp_query loop before the calendar, so I’d like a little detail. Thank!

Hi Mike. Thanks for the note. I spoke with our developer on this today, and it looks like yes, it is indeed based on presence of the_content(). It also overrides the_title().

That help? Let me know if not.

Oh, and if that doesn’t work, you can make a custom template and change the display to ECP Default Template
which will take over the whole page instead of the the_content().

That helped a great deal. What I learned, after some tinkering, is that I can’t use query_posts() if I want to run a loop on the same page as TEC. So, my work around was to use get_posts (). Worked like charm. Here’s the reference if anyone wants it.

Excellent to hear! Thanks for confirming, Mike. That will definitely come in handy for other users who have related questions down the road.
