You’re right, I do apologise – I missed that you noted the problem takes place in month view. In map view, on the other hand, that trick seems to work.

It’s possible this is actually a bug on our side as, unless I’m mistaken, even providing a geographic name fails if you load the URL directly (as opposed to entering the name in the location field and hitting Find Events).

Ideally, of course, you could take such a URL and re-use it (or even ‘manually’ craft it as you are doing) and it would work.

With that in mind I’ll get this logged for further attention … in the meantime I’m not sure how else you might workaround this, unfortunately.

Hah! Happy to help 🙂

I’ll go ahead and close this thread – but if anything else crops up please do just create new threads as needed.

Thanks again!

Sorry to hear you are hitting difficulties.

It seems to work for me on a clean test site, I’m not sure why it might be failing on your own site.

Have you applied any category/tag filters to the widget and could it be no matches are being found amongst the upcoming events? If so, does clearing those filters help?

YES, I’ve deactivated all other plugins to check for a plugin conflict.
YES, I’ve reverted to the 2011 default WordPress theme (with other plugins still deactivated) to check for a theme conflict.

Thanks for giving those steps a try. I’m puzzled because – as noted – under default conditions (see our full post on testing for conflicts) I couldn’t see a problem.

Just for the avoidance of doubt, can you confirm if these steps enabled you to identify any conflicts?

Thanks!

Interesting stuff!

For a customization of that breadth we’d really need to leave it to you to forge a path forward, but we can certainly leave this thread open a while and see if other members of the community have any ideas to share.

Do note that some third party plugins like this one (not officially supported here) may be useful in easily building up additional lists of events – which you could embed in all kinds of places – based on whatever criteria you specify.

Good luck!

Hi Seb,

Event Rocket isn’t actually an official Modern Tribe plugin (and we don’t deliver technical support here in pre-sales) – so really the best place to take this question is the Event Rocket support forum on wordpress.org.

I happen to be the maintainer of that plugin and will happily help as time allows – but that is the correct place to post for support on this one.

Thanks again!

[Barry]

OK – so can you try changing the order of each array such that plurals are converted first of all?

Otherwise, “Events” will be converted to “Classs” – leaving a dangling “s” as you’ve noticed.

[Barry]

That is strange.

2. Setting Default WordPress theme did fix it, but as i mentioned, this used to work with 3.7 and enfold 3.8broke it.

Just to clarify, because I can see you’ve made some customizations (some of which may have been implemented from within your theme’s functions.php file, etc), does this happen with Enfold even without any customizations?

If so, can you make a .zip of your theme available for download so I can see what’s going on?

Hi!

The topic I was referring to is this one:
https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/want-calendar-to-be-wide-but-events-pages-to-have-sidebar/

Ah, I see. Yes well that would certainly hide the sidebar (it would still be sent to the browser, though, it just wouldn’t be visible) and you’d probably need to tweak it to match your own theme’s structure.

I think your workaround should also work, but would you know where typically I would find that line <?php get_sidebar ( ) ?>?

It depends on the theme – in Twenty Fourteen for instance you can find it in lots of different templates including page.php, index.php and single.php – similarly so for Twenty Thirteen.

If I select for the events template the ‘default events template’, all event pages show up full width, without sidebar.

So if you decide to use this template you’d effectively have to do things in reverse and add the sidebar rather than remove it. You might for instance add this code to your own custom version of the default events template (please see our Themer’s Guide for details on setting up template overrides):

<?php if ( is_singular() ) get_sidebar() ?>

This would typically go somewhere after get_header() but before get_footer() … some experimentation may be needed to get a good fit with your theme 🙂

Hi Steven,

Sorry to hear you’re encountering difficulties.

It rather sounds like a permission-related issue, where WordPress’s own core update failed because it can’t write to the filesystem.

I think this may have coincided with your update of our own plugins – but is actually a quite separate problem. Do you have a CPanel-based hosting account that would let you easily adjust file permissions, or can you seek assistance from your host?

[Barry]

Nice work 🙂

Looks like the month view requires an — “&tribe-bar-geoloc=ny” (if searching in ny) more than just the lat and long coordinates. any tricks around this?

How about adding the tribe-bar-geoloc parameter to the URL query, but without any value (ie, just “…&tribe-bar-geoloc”) – would that work for you?

 

[Barry]

Hi!

I’m not too sure which post/code you’re referring to, but one way to handle this is figure out where in your theme the sidebar is loaded and added a conditional statement to control when it runs.

For example, let’s say your template includes this line:

<?php get_sidebar() ?>

You might change this to:

<?php
if ( ! tribe_is_event_query() || ( is_singular() && tribe_is_event() ) )
    get_sidebar()
?>

This will allow the sidebar to be loaded either if the page is nothing to do with events, or, if it is a single event page.

Would that help?

[Barry]

No problem 🙂

[Barry]

It is potentially a bigger customization than you might imagine, particularly if you need to account for pagination of results. Just to be clear:

Is it possible to change the order from start-time to end-time?

Is it only the time and not the date you are interested in? That is, you want the days to be in the normal order but events within a given day to be reversed (latest first)?

Or is it much simpler than that and you just want to view the oldest events first?

[Barry]

Awesome 🙂

I’ll go ahead and close this thread since it sounds like we’re all good, but if you need help with any other issues please don’t hesitate to post a new thread and one of the team will be only too happy to assist.

Also – if you have a moment to spare – we’d love to hear your thoughts on The Events Calendar across on our plugin review page. Thanks again!

[Barry]

OK. We do try to stick to one issue per thread, though, so if you could create a new thread for this other problem (with the blog loop) that would be appreciated – and I will leave this thread open for the time being in case you do hit further problems re performance/queries.

Thanks!
