WordPress sidebar not working with Events Calendar short code

[Elena]

Hi, I am wondering if you can help me. The shortcode from the Events Calendar is causing my sidebar to be pushed to the bottom right of the page and I’m wondering if there is any way to fix this. Thank you!

Hi there!

Thanks for reaching out. I will try to help with your issue.

Can you provide a link to a page where the sidebar is having this problem? I took a look at the site provided in the info, and I don’t see a sidebar anywhere.

Thanks,
Sky

Hi Sky,

Thank you. I have the sidebar down right now because it’s not working. I’ll
put it up so you can see it.

Hi Sky,

I am just following up regarding this issue.

Thanks so much for your help.

Hi again,

I am still not sure I’m seeing what you are describing. I do see a widget area after the content, but it is labeled as “content-bottom-widgets” which makes me think it is displaying where it is meant to be.

In any case, the sidebars should show as set up in your theme templates. First, make sure you are using a template that supports a sidebar. In Events > Settings > Display > “Events template” you can choose the template to use. Selecting “theme default” will use the default page.php or single.php template from your theme. Some themes may provide additional templates to add things like sidebars. If there are any other templates available, they should show in this dropdown. Choosing “default events template” will show a full width layout with no sidebars.

For more information about these settings, check out this knowledgebase article: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/stylesheets-and-page-templates/

Hope that helps! Please let me know if you have any additional questions about this.

Thanks,
Sky
