Good evening Mats and welcome back!
Thank you for reaching out to us and for your great words.
We are sorry to hear about the calendar not displaying to your liking.
I would love to help you with this topic.
I cannot see what the photo view looks like on your website while using the shortcode (perhaps if you had a screenshot, that would be great).
But, what I can say, based on your message is that you might not be using straight quotation marks. This will break the shortcode and switch to the default view.
The correct shortcode would be [tribe_events view=”photo” tribe-bar=”false”]
You can read about the quotation marks at the bottom of this page: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/embedding-calendar-views-tribe_events-shortcode/
Let me know if that helps.
Have a great day!
Geoff B.
