Fantastic – and our apologies for the inconvenience. As soon as we’ve made some progress on this we’ll do our best to post an update in here and let you know 🙂

[Barry]

Awesome, happy to hear it 🙂

In that case I’ll close this thread – but if we can assist with anything else please don’t hesitate to create new threads as needed and one of the team will be only too happy to help.

Thanks again!

You could definitely peruse tri.be/support/documentation but do be aware the information there largely relates to the old 2.0.x codebase – so, while it might provide you with some ideas, not all of it remains relevant.

We don’t have any specific resources to guide you through something like this, but between our technical docs, tutorials and themer’s guide you can certainly build a sense of how the system works as a whole.

Other than that, this would really be a task where you most likely would need to spend some time in the code to really get to grips with things.

I don’t think there’s much else we can help with on this occasion and will close the thread – but if we can help with anything else/any more specific issues that crop up along the way please do feel free to open a new thread and we’ll be happy to help if we can 🙂

Thanks again – and good luck!

Might you leverage the list widget here?

It could then be customized and styled to render horizontally, etc. Would that be viable?

[Barry]

Hi weezypops,

That’s concerning but hopefully there is a straightforward explanation.

Have they vanished entirely or do you find that you can still see them on the frontend? Sometimes we find that – inadvertently – some filters are applied (via the Filters & Columns meta box above the events) and this reduces the total number of events that are listed.

Please try clearing any filters that might have been applied via those controls, navigate away and return to the list of events.

Are they now present again?

Hi!

Can you try to locate it in the trash and delete it completely (or just empty the trash entirely) and see if that helps?

[Barry]

Great question 🙂

There are no built-in capabilities to assist with this, I’m afraid: the closest suitable functionality is our CSV import tool which is really designed for manual imports rather than an automated process like you are describing – and so to drive this one forward I think you’d need to consider building out your own custom solution.

[Barry]

With regards to your Google keys – are they “registered” against a specific domain? It looks like, currently, you’re just using the IP address. Is it possible that is throwing a spanner in the works here?

[Barry]

Hi Patrick,

I don’t believe we do currently have such a list and I definitely take on board your point about the documentation.

In fact, we’re actively rebuilding things in a way that (hopefully) will address a few of your concerns and the good news is that ship is almost ready to sail.

If you’d like to be notified when it’s ready, please just sign up here (caution! It may temporarily be down while we work on it).

Thanks!

Hi – great question!

You wouldn’t necessarily need to install an additional plugin as WordPress itself comes with capabilities allowing new users to register for an account but, if for any reason that is unsuitable, it may be you can find a suitable plugin to help you out and add whatever it is that’s missing from WordPress’s native capabilities in this area.

Does that help?

[Barry]

Hi Chris,

You could certainly craft a custom solution for this by combining a few different things:

• You could hook into pre_get_posts to test and see if a calendar page has been requested
• Test if the user is logged in using is_user_logged_in()
• Take them some place else if necessary via wp_safe_redirect()

It’s verging on custom development territory so it’s really something you’d need to drive forward yourself – but the above should provide the basic building blocks (and/or you could potentially leverage existing tools within the membership plugin you are using).

Good luck!

[Barry]

Hi Dave,

Thanks for getting in touch.

You’ve asked a lot of questions there and I’ll try to answer each as best I can but, in future, it would be appreciated if you could stick to one issue/question per thread 🙂

Does anyone have any suggestions about how I can get this template page to load a background image, such as are found on my other pages, using the plugin ‘WP-Backgrounds Lite’?

I don’t have any particular knowledge of that plugin but we can certainly leave this open for a while and see if other members of the community have any tips to help you out on that count.

As one can see, in my original design, I was hoping to style the ‘time’ differently than the other ‘date’ information. Is it possible to separate the date into two CSS classes, one for day and one for time?

Absolutely.

I’m assuming you are still using tribe_events_event_schedule_details() within your custom templates to generate that text: you could either modify what it produces via a filter function that runs on the tribe_events_event_schedule_details hook or you could strip it out and build up your own alternative, using functions like tribe_get_start_date().

How can I get rid of the comma, after the event venue?

The date format is configurable: please visit Events > Settings > Display and make your adjustments in the Date Format Settings section 🙂

What is the best approach to duplicate functionality for the ‘learn more’ box (shown in the mockup jpeg) in the central area on the bottom? Custom fields?

Is that just a means of linking visitors to the single event pages? Could you use WordPress’s the_permalink() template tag?

@proimpact:

I’m sorry you’re experiencing these difficulties and wish we could help more – I’m afraid though this remains something that the author(s) of Easy Testimonials will need to resolve as the issue is within their code.

The problem is exactly as it was before, albeit the submitTestimonialForm() function is now in a slightly different location within the same file (lines 250-402) but it contains the same offending line of code as it did previously:

do_action('wp_insert_post', 'wp_insert_post');

You can see this for yourself if you open up the file I previously referenced and scroll down to line 315.

If you can get some info from them that explains what argument 2 is, or specific steps that we should take to address the issue that would be very helpful.

In short, unless there is a reason they need that line of code, they should remove it.

They have already called wp_insert_post() just a few lines previously and so WordPress will automatically fire the action in the correct manner with the correct arguments, there is no reason I can think of that they manually need to do it from within their own plugin: if I’m missing something there I’m open to feedback – but I really feel they are going about things the wrong way on this one.

In the short term, while I’m hesitant to suggest you edit the core code of any plugin, perhaps in this case if you feel confident doing so you should go ahead and remove the offending line or comment it out – ie, change:

do_action('wp_insert_post', 'wp_insert_post');

To:

// do_action('wp_insert_post', 'wp_insert_post');

(Adding a double slash will stop that line of code from running.)

If that causes problems you can always undo the change – and ideally the plugin authors will make the correction in their next update to save you the trouble.

Hi Frank,

It sounds like you’ve got two different questions here:

I used to be able to delete a single entry in a series of events,
but I do not see that capability any more.

Trashing an event from within the event editor (when you are editing all events) should move the entire chain to the trash – using the individual trash link in the admin events list on the other hand should still allow you to trash individual instances.

I have installed the duplicate events clean up plugin. When go into seetings and click on Merge Duplicate Recurring Events, all It does is that it looks like it is doing something for a long time then, I get a 500 Internal Server Error. This has not helped my situation.

I’m sorry to hear that.

I’m not sure how many duplicates we’re talking about here but if it is a very large number (or your server isn’t configured in such a way as to let it run for an optimal period of time) then it may be you need to repeatedly re-start it. So long as with each iteration you see a reduction in the total number of posts you will know that it is indeed cleaning things up.

Does that help at all?

[Barry]

No problem – I hope you get there 🙂

Since it’s just a bit beyond what we can help with here on the support forums though I’ll go ahead and close this thread, but if we can help with anything else please don’t hesitate to create new threads a needed and one of the team will be happy to assist.

Thanks again!
