When Photo view is default List view won't show

[Donna]

When Photo view is my default, I can not get the List view to come up. If I choose List view as the default they all work, but I want the Photo view to be the default. The site can be view at http://slulink.slu.edu/piuscal

A similar issue with month view was posted at https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/when-month-view-is-default-list-view-wont-show/

I originally posted this at:https://wordpress.org/support/topic/when-photo-view-is-default-list-view-wont-show?replies=1#post-6714136, but was told it is more appropriate to post on the PRO forum.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give.

Hi,

Sorry for the issues you are having.

I see what you mean on your site.

I was able to visit the list view by going directly to the url here:

http://slulink.slu.edu/piuscal/?post_type=tribe_events&eventDisplay=list

If you change permalinks to something besides default on this page:

Admin > Settings > Permalinks

Does that fix the issue?

Let me know and we can go from here.

Thanks

Hi Brian,

I am currently working on setting up the permalinks, but at this time I am unsure of how to update .htaccess after changing the permalink.

[Brian]

WordPress should update the htaccess file once you save permalinks. It would show a notice on that page if it cannot edit the htaccess file.

Are you seeing any message like that?

[Donna]

The message I see is:
If your .htaccess file were writable, we could do this automatically, but it isn’t so these are the mod_rewrite rules you should have in your .htaccess file. Click in the field and press CTRL + a to select all.

What you stated appears to be the case.

[Brian]

Ok that happens from time to time.

WordPress has a guide here on editing files: (Creating and editing (.htaccess))

https://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks#Creating_and_editing_.28.htaccess.29

Does that help?

[Donna]

Hi Brian,

After following the instructions (from the link you sent) and other documentation, we were able to successfully get the .htaccess file up and running. Once I changed the permalinks the list view worked! Thank you so much for your help!!! 🙂

[Brian]

I am glad to see you were able to figure it out!

I am going to go ahead and close this ticket. If you have a similar issue or another in the future, please do not hesitate to create a new ticket.

Thanks!
