One-Page Integration

[Steve]

Hello,
I’m trying to incorporate the calendar with my one-page parallax site. Is there a way to get the events calendar to work with this? I want all the functionality and never leave my main page.

Please help.

Thanks,

[Steve]

To be specific, I need the map view to work within the one-page theme of my site.

Hey Steve,

A level of integration like this might be possible, but it is too involved and complex a customization for our support forums unfortunately. We won’t be able to help with much custom coding here, but there are a few resources and ideas I can share with you to hopefully get you started!

Sorry about the double post – my internet was cutting out as I neared the end of that first one, so I just published that and have relocated to a better wifi area for this reply here 🙂

On to some resources and ideas like I mentioned:

Themer’s Guide
Our Themer’s Guide is a comprehensive resource for learning how to make custom template files for The Events Calendar, which is often a necessary step for theme integrations. It might be very helpful for your project and you can read it here → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide/

tribe_get_map_link_html
While not the Map View itself, there’s a function called tribe_get_map_link_html() that generates the Google Map for a specific event. If you can’t get the full map view working on your site, this may be a good backup option for showing maps for events.

The Map View
If you want to truly recreate the Map View on a single-page site, then your best resource for this is to just dive right into the Events Calendar Pro plugin files on your site. Namely, you’ll want to check out src/views/pro/map – this directory in your Events Calendar Pro plugin files contains all of the map view template files, which you can rework to fit into your site by following the steps in the Themer’s Guide I linked to you up above.

Best of luck with these customizations! Make good backups of your original files and your custom files along the way, and if you have these backups and take some time to play around with our templating system, I’m sure you’ll be able to put something useful together.

If you’d like to hire a developer to help you out here, we have a list of some frequently-well-reviewed folks for hire here → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/find-a-customizer/

Cheers,
George
