Output current month text in calendar month view

[Simone]

Hi,
I’m here again with another question 🙂
I’d like to output the month just above events calendar, right now in the link you can see I output the current month but if I change the displayed month (clicking previous month just under the calendar), of course the month remains MARZO (MARCH) 2017.
For that change I added this line in /month/loop-grid.php

<?php echo utf8_encode( strftime(“%B %Y”) ); ?> – output current month instead

just before the start of the table displaying the weekdays names.
What code should I use to get the current displayed month?
Thanks for your help!
Simone

Hi again 🙂

I found a relatively old thread which has a solution posted, so please take a moment and review it to see if it is still in working order. If not, we can explore some other options. Thanks and have a great rest of your day. Cheers!

Hi Hunter,
sorry my knowledge in PHP is very limited so I wasn’t able to solve that following the older post because:
1 – I didn’t find the “calendar.php” function files, so I tried to include that directly in “loop-grid.php”
2 – The line that actually outputs the current month&year isn’t posted because the user couldn’t post php code in the thread..
So please could you help me out to find the solution?
Thanks in advance!
Cheers

Hi and welcome back,

We’re unfortunately fairly limited with customizations as outlined in our What support is provided for license holders? Knowledgebase article.

I recommend familiarizing yourself with the process of creating and saving customizations. It seems difficult at first, but a little practice goes a long way. Our Themer’s Guide is the best documentation we have on the matter. I also like to share this Customizing WordPress #1 – How To Create A Child Theme by LevelUpTuts YouTube video. It’s essentially the same process as the Themer’s Guide.

I believe the following line of code should accomplish what you need, so give it a shot and let me know how things work out:

echo date_i18n( 'F', strtotime( tribe_get_month_view_date() ) );

Sorry again I can’t be more help in this scenario and keep me posted with your progress. Have a great weekend! Cheers 🙂
