Page Title on main events page

[Dorothy]

Hi there! Firstly wanted to say what a great plugin this is! I’m having great fun with it and it works perfectly for what I want.
I am having a little issue which I’m sure you will be able to help me with 🙂

The header section of my site is divided into two main parts – the menu/navigation bar at the top and then an area where the page title is displayed. On my events page (which I have called Concerts) the section where i’d normally have one page title actually contains a list of all upcoming events. Would it be possible just to have only the next event title in this page title area rather than all of the events?

Thank you very much for your help 🙂

Hey Dorothy!

Cool site, I’m glad you’ve found the plugin useful so far!

I’m curious, this seems like an issue specific to your theme so would you be able to send a .zip of your theme to us for closer inspection here?

You can send a .zip via a public download link from a site like Dropbox.com, or http://get.tt, and then share that link here for us to download – you can check the “Set as private reply” button here before submitting your reply just to keep that link private so only you and our support team can access it 🙂

Cheers!
George

thank you for such a quick reply!
do you need all the files or just header.php etc?
Cheers

Hey Dorothy,

While you’re not allowed to turn around and sell the plugin, the Quattro theme itself is a derivative work of WordPress – as all plugins and themes are – and so by any rational legal or moral standard it should be licensed under the GPL license. This is an open-source license, so yes, while you should not go selling the theme claiming it’s your own, for the purposes of just us debugging the problems here, we’d need to take a closer look and it’s fine to share a copy of it with us.

If not, or you’re worried, please contact the Quattro team for assistance here. They may disagree with my statements here, which are not guaranteed to be legally accurate in any way, and you can go about sharing or not sharing the theme at your discretion. It’s 100% your call and you do not have to share it, I may be wrong here.

However, getting parts of the theme piecemeal will not be very useful to us here, and I cannot think of any other way to get more specific about solving this problem than looking at your theme directly…except for CSS like the following, which will hide all titles except the first one:

body.tribe-events-page-template #pagetitlecontainer h1.pagetitle {
    display: none;
}
body.tribe-events-page-template #pagetitlecontainer h1.pagetitle:first-of-type {
    display: block;
}

If you add that at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file, it may help, although like I mentioned, this is not very specific and only shows whatever the first title element on the page happens to be. So it might not solve everything for you.

Let us know if this helps! 🙂

Cheers,
George

Hello George
Did that zip file help at all?

Many thanks
Dorothy 🙂

Hey Dorothy,

I’ve downloaded your .zip today and will be investigating these issues, and will report back on them.

As for the temporary CSS fix, are you sure you added those styles at the bottom of your theme’s style.css, and then re-uploaded this modified style.css file to replace the un-modified one? If so, then how about adding !important to those CSS rules, like this:

body.tribe-events-page-template #pagetitlecontainer h1.pagetitle {
    display: none !important;
}
body.tribe-events-page-template #pagetitlecontainer h1.pagetitle:first-of-type {
    display: block !important;
}

Does that help at all?

Stay tuned for updates after I investigate your theme, thank you for your patience.

Hey Dorothy,

Just checking in here – apologies for the delays in getting back to you about the Quattro theme files, we are indeed still taking a look and I’ll have an update for you soon!

In the meantime, I’m curious – did you get to try out the CSS I recommended above? If so, did it help at all?

Thanks!
George

[Dorothy]

Hi George

sorry for not getting back to you sooner

Yes i did

Many thanks
Dorothy

I’ve managed to hide all the page titles using this:

#afterheader .pagetitle {
display: none! important;
}

But I can’t seem to just display the next event that is occuring in the page title still.

Many thanks

Hey Dorothy,

No worries! Thanks for coming back with an update – I’m glad you’ve pulled off the first part of this, by hiding the extra titles, but getting just one of the them to show is indeed a bit tricky.

Did you try the exact CSS I shared above earlier in the thread? It worked well for accomplishing both of these things for me when I visited your site to test out a solution.

Let me know if that exact CSS I shared helps – if not, can you leave the CSS at the bottom of your theme’s style.css and let us know when you’ve done this? I’ll take another look at the page and see what’s going on.

Thanks!
