Theme conflict: Single Event List View, Date,Time Details do not display

[CHRIS]

Hi all.

This is an old chestnut of a problem which may have no straightforward fix. Recently upgraded to Pro from TEC core to access pretty features like calendar widget and am really happy except for the above glitch. In list view my venue information and Google map display perfectly but nothing shows up in the details fields.

Am using the Edin theme; as you can see below I have gone through the conflict checking protocol; the glitch persists when all
plugins are deactivated but disappears when I switch to Twenty Fourteen. Sounds like a theme conflict.

My site is not public since it is a mockup to
replace a functioning (but old) site that needs upgrading. I don’t mind granting access in some secure way if that
is required.

I have rooted around the forums for a day or so without much success. Problems like this (re)surface every once in a while
but definitive solutions are hard to pin down.

Love the product! but I also like the theme (of course or why this post). All suggestions welcome.

Hey Chris,

Welcome to the forums, man! Thanks for the kind words about the plugin–I’m stoked to hear you’ve been loving it, despite the issues you noted here.

Theme conflicts are tough. While we try our best to integrate The Events Calendar with as many themes as we can, it’s impossible to cover them all given there are so many out there, not to mention custom ones built from scratch. That means we’re unable to guarantee perfect integration or support those types of conflicts like we can bugs within the plugin itself.

That said, I’m happy to help as best I can, but may be unable to pin down a solution given that I’m unfamiliar with the theme and it’s codebase.

I did install the Edin theme myself just to get a sneak peak and was able to get the date and time to display on the single event view adding this CSS to the theme’s style.css file:

#tribe-events-content .tribe-events-abbr {
display: inline-block;
}

The rest of the details seem to show up for me after comparing them to the default Twenty Sixteen theme. If you’re noticing other information like this missing, then I imagine doing other CSS changes like the one above will fix things up. We do have a good guide on how to target CSS styles and that’s a great starting place.

Does this help and get things started? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

Hey Geoff

Thanks for the quick reply. Good support.

I actually dug up a bit of css from another thread somewhere:

.tribe-events-meta-group.tribe-events-meta-group-details .updated {
display: block;
}

This worked. I may also try your solution. Since I am only a month into all this I can’t claim to understand any of it but it seems like fun.
Guess I’ll go learn some syntax

haha /c

Heck yeah and nice work! Thanks for following up and I’m glad that helped.

Cheers!
