Sidebars not displayed in my Calendar pages

[Asko]

Cant see sidebars in my The Events Calendar plugin pages?
Using BeTheme and have force sidebars on BeTheme Options > Sidebars, but sidebars not displayed in my Calendar pages.
What is the solution?

Hi Asko,

The calendar uses it’s own template by default, which does not include a sidebar.

You can head to Events > Settings > Display and change the settings so that the calendar uses one of the theme page templates instead. Choose the page template that includes sidebar you want, save your settings, and see if that helps make a difference.

Thanks!

I already used that options, no help. I think, if i can make page and add shortcode, then sidebars displayed.
Using The Events Calendar Shortcode plugin for that, but need to customize list display. Can I make my own event display by category template and display that some shortcode?

[Geoff]

Yes, that would be possible. Check out our Themer’s Guide because it outlines the steps for customizing the calendar templates.

Once you identify which templates you would like to customize, I would suggest adding the sidebar shortcode in there and wrapping it in a conditional statement to display on a specific event category. Something like this:

// Checks for a specific category, then outputs shortcode
if( tribe_is_tax('category-name-goes-here') ) {
...shortcode stuff goes here
} else {
...code for everything else
}

Cheers!

Have The Events Calendar Shortcode plugin use The Event Calendar template or it own template to display shortcode?

[Geoff]

I’m not sure, to be honest. The Shortcode plugin was written by someone else and I personally haven’t used it. My guess though (and it’s just that–a guess) is that the shortcode itself can be placed into any template. In other words, it is likely not its own template.

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know. 🙂
