Week View date link causes URL error

[Lars]

Clicking the top date in View Week will cause an URL error. I.e. “/events/2014-10-06/” causing 404 error. It turns out that unless “Day” is ticked on the “Enable event views” the URL will return 404 error. This is a bug.

Hi Lars:

I would have expected you to be taken to list view, if day view is not enabled – so I’m not sure why you are experiencing this. Can you point me to an example of this behaviour?

Thanks!

This seems to be the place to start. I, too, am experiencing ‘404 issues.’ I think it would be good to add some of the tips from all threads to the FAQ page.

Immediate issue:
Need to remove the link to each ‘day’ in ‘week’ view.
I have disabled ‘Day’ under Display Settings => Enable Event Views.

But selecting the ‘Week’ display from the main calendar page or any ‘month’ page results in the individual day text (e.g. ‘Mon 24th’) becoming a link (e.g. /calendar/2014-03-24/) to a page that returns a 404.

What change is needed to prevent the day text from becoming a link in the first place?

Thank you.

@Barry could you just try unselecting “Day” the “Display Settings => Enable Event Views” and see what happens when you click one of the 7 week dates displaying at the top of Week View?

Hi visualfuture, please do feel free to monitor this thread but if you need any further advice that is specific to your own situation we’d ask you post in a separate thread of your own 🙂

Selecting “Day” in the “Display Settings => Enable Event Views” makes it work. But we don’t want “Day” showing as an option in the “View As” toggle.

Would removing the links from week view be viable for you?

The basic approach (with reference to the Themer’s Guide for background) would be to override pro/week/loop-grid.php and change:

" rel="bookmark"><?php tribe_events_week_get_the_day_display(); ?>

To:

<?php tribe_events_week_get_the_day_display(); ?>

Does that work?

[Barry]

(Sigh.)

Looks like the forum isn’t playing too nicely with that code – I’ve tried to detail the same thing here, instead.

[Lars]

@Barry: That would obviously work as the whole link is removed – but this is not how it is intended to work – so will it be fixed with 3.5.2 ?

[Barry]

Sure, that was just an effort to give you some relief in the interim – but yes this has been logged and we’ll make efforts to update this thread as and when we’ve got something more to report (such as when any fix might be released).

Thanks for your patience in the meantime 🙂

[Lars]

Thank you!

[Barry]

Going to close this for the time being – but as before we’ll do our best to post updates as and when we can – thanks!
