Hi Mike,

Can you visit the Events → Settings → General screen and check the value of the number of events to show per page setting? What is this set to?

[Barry]

Hi B,

In terms of customizing our own templates this best starting point is our Themer’s Guide, which explains so of the basic mechanics for make safe tweaks and adjustments:

theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide

Am I right in thinking you want the event description to stay in the same place? If so, the tricky thing here is going to be moving the “share” buttons, which are not generated by our plugin and are instead “injected” in to the event description itself.

Actually pushing the Google/iCal buttons below the event meta is fairly easy, a short snippet like this should do the trick:

add_action( 'wp_head', 'reposition_gcal_ical_links' );

function reposition_gcal_ical_links() {
	$callback = array( 'TribeiCal', 'single_event_links' );
	remove_action( 'tribe_events_single_event_after_the_content', $callback );
	add_action( 'tribe_events_single_event_after_the_meta', $callback, 5 );
}

This could be added to your theme’s functions.php file, for instance. To deal with the Share buttons, though, I’m afraid you’d need to seek the assistance of the authors of that plugin.

If you can stop them from being injected into the event description (which I’m sure they can help you with) and figure out a manual way of inserting them (again, they should be able to help there) you can probably combine that knowledge with our own guides on setting up template overrides to reposition them in the case of single event views 🙂

I hope that helps!

Hi Anne,

You can certainly create entries for Christmas Day, Veterans’ Day or any other occasions like that and there is even an option to mark them as all day events rather than specifying an exact time range like you might do for other events 🙂

Does that answer your question?

Hi Helen,

With regards to your second question perhaps this plugin would help (though do note it is a third party plugin which – though very popular – I’m afraid we cannot support here on these forums, though many users have installed it and have found it very helpful).

To return to your first question, I’m afraid when it comes to customizations like this we’re always happy to point you in the right direction – but the reality is we can’t write the code for you (and, really, if you make such a customization it is important you understand how it works so you can maintain it going forward).

If you’re really stuck certainly feel free to contact us (support-at-theeventscalendar-dot-com) and we’ll be happy to provide you with a list of independent developers who may be able to assist — and of course there are lots of freelance marketplaces out there where you can find WP developers who will be eager to help.

Beyond that I don’t think we can assist further on this one and will go ahead and close out this topic.

Thanks again and I do wish you luck with the customization 🙂

[Barry]

Glad to hear it was such an easy fix 🙂

Should anything else crop up in the future definitely let us know by creating a new topic – and please do bear in mind that it is almost always better to create a fresh topic of your own rather than posting in and “hijacking” one created by another since – as your case illustrates – the symptoms may be similar but the cause and solution can be very different.

Thanks again!

This reply is private.

I’m not sure why that would be – and it’s not impossible that a conflict with another plugin or something of that nature could be at work. Do you find that the event genuinely is not trashed? Certainly in the past we’ve had reports of this error but, even so, the event or events are moved to the trash successfully.

[Barry]

Hi!

I’m afraid that – right now – there is no such capability (to clean up expired single, non-recurring events) within our plugins. It’s a great idea though – and one we’d encourage you to post on our UserVoice page for future consideration … in fact there is an existing request you might add your support too 🙂

Until something is implemented, though, it would really need to be managed either by manually deleting events or else a custom-built tool of your own.

Does that help, or at least clarify things as they currently stand?

[Barry]

Hi Rupert,

Do either of these existing answers help?

Hi there Helen,

We’ve got a great guide to making customizations in the form of our Themer’s Guide, so that’s definitely some “required reading” here 🙂

theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/themers-guide

You could tackle this a number of ways, but I think the simplest would be to remove the call to tribe_events_list_the_date_headers() from within a custom version of the list/loop.php template and replace it with a custom function of your own, which breaks things down per day rather than per month.

You could even use the code for tribe_events_list_the_date_headers() – which lives in public/template-tags/loop.php – as the basis of your own solution.

I hope that helps 🙂

[Barry]

I’m afraid I only see an “Unexpected Error” message when I try to view that link.

Hey there Giovanni,

It would be appreciated if you could avoid using private replies unless you are sharing something that really needs to be kept confidential, such as a client URL you prefer not to expose. Otherwise this topic – which could potentially be helpful for others in the future – will make very little sense to fellow community members 🙂

In any case, I appreciate you need a solution but, unless I’m misunderstanding you, the countdown widget is behaving exactly as it is intended to operate: it simply isn’t designed to automatically move on to the next event and begin counting down afresh — and neither would all users find that desirable.

With that in mind, all I can really recommend if you need to get this working in the meantime is that you implement this as a customization.

Also, if you do post a feature request please feel free to share the URL back here – that might help others who are also interested in your idea to show their support by up-voting the request over on UserVoice 🙂

Thanks again!

[Barry]

OK, well we could certainly consider that as a further enhancement – if you want to go ahead and post a feature request that will also allow others to comment on and show their support for the idea 🙂

Thanks!

[Barry]

No worries at all!

[Barry]

Sure, so right now there is no other alternative (at least not one that is integrated into The Events Calendar itself). You are more than welcome to post a feature request, though, or indeed add your support to any suitable existing requests 🙂
