Plugin doesn’t work with my theme.

[evertpensado]

Hello. I bought the pro licence an i want to know how to prepare my theme template to fully take advantage of the plugin.

Here is my url http://www.cuencostibetanosmexico.com.

I need help so bad, with this. I want to use the photo view and the calendar pro.
The events are in the eventos page http://www.cuencostibetanos.com/eventos

Thanks.

Hi evertpensado,

What exactly are you having issues with?

Looks like your theme is outputting some invalid HTML markup. I am not sure if fixing that would solve your issues, but it would be a start. I suspect your theme calls wp_footer() after the closing tag. Take a look at your footer.php file and move the wp_footer() call (together with the php opening and closing tags) right above the closing tag.

Sorry, looks like my html tags were removed so I will try again:

I suspect your theme calls wp_footer() after the closing “html” tag. Take a look at your footer.php file and move the wp_footer() call (together with the php opening and closing tags) right above the closing “body” tag.

Thanks for your help, enollo!

evertpensado, did enollo’s solution do the trick?

[evertpensado]

Thanks. That’s the problem. I don’t actually have a footer and header php. on my theme. I don’t code. I use a photoshop plug in, named Sitegrinder. It doesn’t generate a header ando footer php, i guess because is old, and maybe was build for an older wordpress. Can you help me to make my theme ready for The events calendar fully compatibility. I guess that goes for all jquary or ajax stuff, too. I can send you all my theme files or whatever you need. I’m a graphics designer.

Hi, evertpensado. It sounds like having a freelancer help you out is definitely what the doctor orders.

Here’s a brief list of developers (in no particular order) that we can vouch for that you might want to get in touch with:

1. Tamara Zuk @ Enollo (http://enollo.com/) She charges a minimum of $75, which assumes 1.5 hours of development work.
2. WerkPress (http://www.werkpress.com) They prefer customization-based projects at a minimum of $500-800.
3. Chris Miller (http://launchbrigade.com) They require a $125 consultation before providing an estimate!
4. Nick Ciske (http://thoughtrefinery.com/) Nick’s minimum depends on type of work; for now nothing in stone. Keep in mind he used to be a dev on this team, and actually built the Community Events add-on)
5. The Mighty Mo! (http://www.themightymo.com/) Their small projects are in the $500-1,000 range and go up from there.
6. Donald Grover (http://groverwebdesign.com/) His minimum project amount is $1500.
7. Drew Poland (http://www.iheartargyle.com/) Drew’s minimum is at least 1 hour of work @ $125

Hopefully, the above will help you find someone to work on your site. Good luck! 🙂

Hi, evertpensado. Is there anything else we can help you with before closing this thread?

[evertpensado]

Just one more thing. A good site where i can find info a learn coding so i can so it myself. Thanks.

Hi evertpensado,

For some people learning coding is not hard, but it is also not an overnight process. I would say it would take at least a couple of months before you feel comfortable enough to dive into your code.

Here are some sites I have used in the past or that I suggest to my interns:
http://www.codecademy.com
https://www.udacity.com
http://teamtreehouse.com
http://learnable.com (they also give you access to some great SitePoint books if you join)

If you are comfortable with CSS, then I would suggest instead using a starter theme and just adjusting the styles to match your PSD mockups. Some great starter themes are:

Home

http://thematictheme.com

Twenty Twelve

You can find more by searching “WordPress Starter Themes” but note that a lot of them are aimed at developers.

I hope that helps,

Tamara
