Twenty Twelve Menu being disabled on single event page

[thomasac]

I’m using the basic Twenty Twelve theme, you know, the one with the Black menu bar across the top of the page, under the banner graphic. It has not been modified.

The Events calendar is one of the menu items, directing to the monthly calendar view. So far, so good. However, when one clicks on an event in the calendar, and goes to the single event view, the menu is completely disabled. It still looks like it’s there, but you can’t click on it. This is very confusing for users. They can still navigate back by going through the “All Events” link, but why would they know that?

I understand that you can’t guarantee compatibility with every theme out there, but since this is one of the default wordpress themes… and only 3 years old, I thought it should be safe.

If nothing else, can you give me a list of known (free) themes that you anticipate being compatible with for a while?

One other thing is, (and this is just an annoyance/suggestion, because it only shows on the back end,) when you break a single event out of a recurring event, it still shows up on the editing page as a recurring event, with only one entry. This is just a little confusing, because you expect to be editing a single event, and I get nervous editing, for fear of changing ALL the recurring ones. FWIW, my use case is to create a recurring event so that something shows up on the calendar for the next 2-4 months. As each occurrence gets closer, I break it out of the series and add details for that occurrence.

Thanks for your help.

Hi,

Sorry for the issues you are having.

I took a look at your site and see what you mean.

I found out it is this css causing the issue:

#header {
float: left;
width: 100%;
}

See if you can remove float: left; from your theme’s stylesheet.

When I removed that from it is my browser it fixed the issue and did not create new ones 🙂

Recurring Events
I created a recurring event and when I break it out it no longer appears to me to be apart of the series, beside the title being the same and it does not say it is recurring in the column either. Do you not see that in your site?

Let me know if removing the css works.

Thanks

Thanks for your quick response. And I apologize; the theme in question was Coraline, not Twenty Twelve (I’m using that on one of my other sites).

In any case, removing that code did seem to work. I’ll be watching for any side effects and let you know if I find any.

Thanks again for the help.

Great, glad it helps, I am going to go ahead and close this ticket, but if you need help on this or something else please post a new ticket.

Thanks!
