Hi Joseph – anything is possible!
If this has to be a widget then you’ll probably want to register a new sidebar (or reuse an existing one) and position it above the events calendar.
You would do this by editing your templates – which one exactly depends on your Events > Settings > Template > Events Template setting – but a custom ecp-page-template.php might be a good choice here if you’re setup to use the Default Events Template.
Some required reading (unless you’ve looked at this stuff before of course):
Yep if you don’t mind me poking around it would be great if you could send access details to us at [email protected], marking the email for my attention and referencing this thread.
Before you do so, please:
- Backup!
- Ensure you know how to restore that backup
- Be aware that some amount of disruption may occur while we troubleshoot
- Understand that neither Modern Tribe or I are responsible for any problems that result
If I can’t see anything obvious then I will ask for assistance from a member of the dev team (who may then contact you directly).
Hi Alex. It would be terrific if you could add your suggestion re addons to the feature request thread and ideally give a use case to help give the devs a better feel for what you are trying to achieve here. Others can also then comment and show their support in the same thread.
Also, when is your conference manager product going to be released?
We don’t have an official release date, not even a tentative one, that I am aware of – the best thing to do is subscribe to or monitor our blog for announcements and news.
Well, I’d recommend the /%postname%/ pattern, though the month/day/postname one you are using probably should work.
Now you’ve made that adjustment can you run through the initial troubleshooting steps one more time?
- Ensure all of your Modern Tribe plugins are up to date and in synch (if you are using The Events Calendar 2.0.10 then you must use Events Calendar PRO 2.0.10)
- Deactivate all other plugins
- If you had enabled a caching plugin, ensure there are no after effects even after deactivation
- Revert to an unmodified copy of Twenty Twelve or Twenty Ten
- Now test to see if the problem persists
Please also ensure that you still have an active event which is assigned to a venue.
I can’t see your site, so it’s hard to say. The links may well be the same, especially if they were hard-coded/manually assigned.
If you edit an event and look at the permalink preview (near the title field) does that look the same as before or is it a “pretty permalink” (ie, is it abc.com/events/event-name/ instead of abc.com/?tribe_event=xxx)?
You should be able to enable it from the WordPress Settings > Permalinks menu, normally WordPress will take care of the rest.
If for some reason it can’t create the .htaccess file itself it will display the code you need at the bottom of that page – all you need to do is copy and paste it into a new file (and call that file .htaccess of course, placing it in the web root).
If you need further help, why not check out the WordPress documentation for permalinks, which I linked to above.
OK, well I’d suggest trying that next as, unfortunately, The Events Calendar doesn’t play nicely with default permalinks.
Yeah that’s a bit frustrating. You could try dropping a snippet into your theme’s functions.php file and specifying the limit that way.
OK. How about the permalink settings? I’ve seen all kinds of strange behaviour when default permalinks are used – have you been able to try out “pretty” permalinks?
OK, got you now. Well, if you are unable to use the regular upcoming events list which already has this property (of representing the category as a CSS class) and customize from there you’ll need to ape what that default template does.
I’d think if you use the post_class() function this should all be handled for you, so long as you either explicitly pass in the post (event) ID or call setup_postdata() first of all.
Does that help here?
