Venues under Month View in Mobile version don't click through correctly

[Andrew Singer]

Hello

In the Mobile version only, in Month View, upon clicking on a day to call up some more details, then below the main calendar any Venue name appearing there in connection with an event should click through to its Venue page. Instead, it goes to an error page in every case. This only goes wrong in Month View in the Mobile version – it doesn’t happen e.g. in Map View in the Mobile version, or on the PC.

It seems to be a problem on the level of the plug-in — that there’s an incorrect link variable used there or something.

You can see this behavior in the brief mobile video capture here:

Can you confirm whether this is an error in the plug-in, or what I might do? Thanks.

Thanks ~ we’ve solved the problem here.

The Venue name link, for events showing under the Month View in Mobile version, needed to look like this: Name of Venue , but they were looking like this: Name of Venue“> Name of Venue

The reason why the permalinks were being incorrectly parsed is because of the function setup on the template called venue_link.

venue_link is calling tribe_get_venue_link() which by default returns the complete HTML link. In order to fix this, we need to return only the URL of the Venue (as we already parsed the HTML through the template).

It’s working correctly now on our site.
