Ah yes, so a problem would be that with the header and footer removed, various styles and scripts are probably not being generated.

In place of those calls (to get_header() and get_footer()) you may need to add wp_head() and wp_footer() calls, respectively.

Yes, I’ve seen it many times, but I’m no expert in programming.

I can appreciate that – but our goal here is to point you in the right direction, not to build customizations for you.

Though we would genuinely love to spend more time helping out with individual customizations like this one the reality is that doing so would leave us unable to support all of our users.

It is also important you understand what’s happening when making changes like this one – at least to some extent – so you can maintain it in the future: once you have made a change like this, we typically cannot assist if it triggers a future breakage.

With that in mind, if you feel uncomfortable making changes like these, it may be wise to seek the help of a suitable designer/developer (and if you email us at support-at-theeventscalendar-dot-com we’d be more than happy to provide you with a list of folks we recommend).

Since I don’t think we will be able to assist further on this one I will go ahead and close out this topic – but please do remember to post a feature request if you’d like us to consider better print support for a future release 🙂

Thanks again!

OK, so if an event does not have a featured image, you wish it to inherit the featured image assigned to its parent category?

That sounds like a great idea and there are a few ways you might tackle this. One is by creating a template override for single-event.php and modifying/adding to the code surrounding:

<?php echo tribe_event_featured_image( $event_id, 'full', false ); ?>

Another is to use the tribe_event_featured_image hook to filter the output of the above function, something like this:

add_filter( 'tribe_event_featured_image', 'substitute_featured_img' );

function substitute_featured_img( $image_url ) {
    if ( ! empty( $image_url ) ) return $image_url;
    else return 'your-custom-image.png';
}

Of course, a little more work would be required to pull in the category image (I’m not sure how you’ve implemented that so can’t help much further on that count) – but I hope this gives you some ideas you can move forward with 🙂

Hi Betty,

I’m sorry to hear you hit some difficulties.

If the problem is theme-specific or isn’t helped by the “Show Events in Main Blog Loop” setting we’d really have to look into your specific scenario in more depth.

I’m afraid we don’t deliver technical support here in the pre-sales forum, though, so if that’s the case we’d be happy to help – but I have to ask that you either log in with your account (if you have one) and post on the appropriate premium forum or else post your question on our wordpress.org forum.

Thanks!

Hi Mary,

Anything is possible!

Please check out our Themer’s Guide first of all as this covers the basic processes for safely overriding and customizing our templates without modifiying any core code.

By setting up custom styles and fresh templates, you could essentially re-tool week view to look any way you please. While running through the entire process is outside of the scope of support we can provide you with here on the support forums, there is effectively no limit for things like this.

You could even “get creative” as I believe I observed in the case of another community member who basically repurposed the existing month view for this task, but showed only one row. Again, such a customization is something you as the designer/developer would need to drive forward – but it does highlight just how flexible a system The Events Calendar/Events Calendar PRO is to build on.

I hope that gives you some ideas!

Hi Shah,

Thanks for your interest in our plugins. Let me try to answer those questions for you.

We do not want to use interfaces of other companies like EventBrite.

We offer a range of ticketing plugins that integrate with WP E-Commerce, Easy Digital Downloads and other popular ecommerce plugins: so, if you want to keep everything “in house”, you can 🙂

We want to facilitate organizers of events of specific industry worldwide to post and manage their events.

Our Community Events plugin allows users to submit events without administrative access – and you can restrict this facility so it is only available to logged in users.

The events will be categorized into sub industry groups and locations worldwide.

The Events Calendar (our free, core plugin) ships with support for a custom event category taxonomy in addition to integrating with regular post tags – so there are plenty of ways to organize and group events.

The organizers and attendees should be able to find events based on categories and locations (countries etc.) Separate calendars for each category.(and may be location like a country)

You can add powerful and intuitive filtering with our Filter Bar plugin – pair this with Events Calendar PRO and you also get geolocation data (which Filter Bar can then take advantage of to offer location-based search) – it’s pretty cool 🙂

And course the other standard options like payments and management capabilities by the organizers.

If you opt for one of our standard ticketing plugins, such as WooCommerce Tickets or any of the others listed here, you can certainly accept payment for events using a compatible payment processor of your choosing.

Do you think that Event Calendar PRO will do the job?

You have some pretty specific needs and to fulfill most or all of them would probably require more than just Events Calendar PRO – though that is a pretty powerful plugin and, along with The Events Calendar, would form a solid foundation which you could build on by adding further plugins from our suite as needed.

I hope that answers your questions, but do let me know if I can assist further.

Thanks!

Hi Jamar,

Sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties 🙁

I’m not completely clear on what you mean, here, however. Do you mean the cost that displays close to the event title (on single event pages) is incorrect/does not show the complete range – such as $10 – $100?

Would it be possible for you to share a URL so I can be sure I understand what you are describing?

Thanks!

Hi Merijn,

I’m afraid our support for third party plugins is limited, but so long as your SEO plugin provides suitable hooks to let you filter its breadcrumbs it should be possible to customize them accordingly (see this topic, which provides a brief overview).

It is of course also possible that some other breadcrumb plugin will work without adjustment (or will be easier to customize).

Last but not least, you are welcome to leave requests not only for future features (such as built-in breadcrumb support that integrates with WP SEO and other plugins) but for tutorials that go into more depth on this subject which we might then add to our knowledgebase. Simply post your request(s) here:

tribe.uservoice.com

Does that help at all?

Hi samkimball,

Sorry to hear you are facing difficulties.

I suspect this may be a known bug which we hope to quash in the near future. In the interim, can you confirm if simply editing the event in question and “re-saving” it resolves the problem?

[Barry]

Hi Robert,

I’m sorry to hear you are experiencing difficulties. Would it be possible for you to copy the system information provided at the foot of the Events → Help screen in here (by private reply if you prefer)?

Thanks!

[Barry]

So assuming they haven’t done anything really crazy, yes, you would copy modules/meta/details.php from the plugin’s views directory and add it to your theme’s tribe-events directory, so you end up with:

themes/YOUR_THEME/tribe-events/modules/meta/details.php

Just as you said, really 🙂

[Barry]

Hi Paolo,

The link at the bottom of the month view page (reading + Esporta Eventi del mese) is normally used for this, however I see in your case it appears not to contain any events.

I’m not sure why that is unless there are one or more conflicts with your theme, plugins or any customizations. Would you be able to try running through our standard troubleshooting steps in an effort to determine this?

Let me know how you get on 🙂

[Barry]

Exactly, yes. We’re changing the information shown in single event pages – but we aren’t stopping visitors from querying for events in a particular category … so:

In other words could I still type in “http://mysite/events/category/some-category/” and get a calendar page?

Yes, that’s correct 🙂

[Barry]

Hi spottedinely,

WordPress itself supports the delivery of Atom-format feeds and it’s possible to view content created by The Events Calendar/Events Calendar PRO in such a feed:

example.com/feed/atom/?post_type=tribe_events

If you craft a URL such as the above, obviously changing the domain to match your own, you should find that events are delivered in Atom format.

Do note however that, unlike RSS format feeds, no special work is done to change properties of event posts and so they will be listed according to publication date rather than event date.

Does that help?

[Barry]

Hi Craig,

The filter Bar will work with the community calendar, and still filter all events (even events added by outside users) as it should?

That’s exactly right 🙂

It does not mention the Filter Bar add-on working with Community Calendar add-on. Just a suggestion, if the Filter Bar does work with the Community Calendar add-on, you might want to list that on this page as well.

We’ll certainly have a think about making that clearer – thanks for highlighting this.

Hi Sizwe,

I’m sorry you’ve experienced difficulties – but your account should have been created when you made your purchase.

If you do not recall doing so or have lost the credentials, simply visit this page to reset your password 🙂
