I’m sorry you’re experiencing difficulties. That’s an interesting problem – can you provide a screenshot of this to give me a better sense of what’s happening (and let me know which default theme you tried)?

[Barry]

Probably the best starting point is to talk to the theme devs and just ask in principle how you might customize that particular bit of text (perhaps they have a filter hook, or perhaps there is some other means of overriding it that they’d recommend).

From there, just let us know what we can do to help (we could offer you a snippet to help detect if the request relates to month view, for instance – basically using tribe_is_month() or another suitable function).

Let us know!

Hi!

Interesting. Do you find the same if you deactivate all other plugins/switch to a default, unmodified theme such as Twenty Thirteen? For me, the category is present in the title under those conditions.

Perhaps if we could isolate whatever factor is at work in the case of your installation we could zero in on a possible solution.

Thanks!

Hi!

A simple solution would be to add custom links (in your nav menu) to each view – but set the URLs to point to a specific month, for example:

wpshindig.com/events/2014-10

Would that be viable here?

[Barry]

Hmm, it seems to work perfectly when I test it – 6 venues are created as expected.

Just for the avoidance of doubt, is it possible you already imported them and they are being skipped for that reason (ie, they already exist) rather than an issue with Cyrillic characters?

[Barry]

Glad that worked 🙂

We do try hard to stick to one issue per thread, though, so can I ask you to break this out into a new thread? One of the team will then be along to help as soon as they can.

Thanks!

Ah, ok – I think I see what’s happening here.

It’s not possible to make our plugins work smoothly with every theme that’s out there – simply because the structure and CSS can vary tremendously. What we do for some very popular/default themes though is add some helper CSS – and that’s what we do in the case of Twenty Fourteen.

We can do this because we add an appropriate CSS class to the body element – tribe-theme-twentyfourteen – but this won’t be added if you use a child theme. What I’d recommend then is looking through our stylesheets for items like these:

.tribe-theme-twentyfourteen .entry-content .tribe-events-calendar th, .tribe-theme-twentyfourteen .tribe-events-calendar th {
	padding:3px;
	border-width:0;
}

.tribe-theme-twentyfourteen #tribe-events-pg-template {
	padding-left:0;
	padding-right:0;
}

.tribe-theme-twentyfourteen.events-archive .entry-content {
	width:90%;
}

And simply port them across, using an appropriate class instead of tribe-theme-twentyfourteen (you might simply swap it out for tribe-theme-parent-twentyfourteen). Does that help?

So you mean if someone views day view for today, it’s 2pm and an event that completed at 11am still displays?

If so, that is expected behaviour (as it simply lists all event taking place on the day in question). Might the upcoming events (list) view better suit your needs here? It doesn’t include any events that have passed, unless of course the user consciously decides to navigate backwards.

[Barry]

Yes, I think this is a problem with our forum and how it processes code!

Please check out this version instead – note that the angle bracket is expressed as an HTML entity (unfortunately when I posted the same code in my previous reply the forum converted it to the corresponding character).

Does that help?

OK, interesting to know it’s related to Jetpack.

One thing I’m curious about is that you marked the I’ve deactivated all other plugins to check for a plugin conflict checkbox when you created this thread, and also confirmed the same thing in your opening post – but it seems like this issue would have been caught by following those steps.

Simply because we’re interested in improving our support experience, I just wondered if you felt we need to make those steps clearer (or was this simply an oversight)? Any feedback is appreciated 🙂

[Barry]

Essentially yes, so if you are the page admin – or can contact them – maybe that’s something you can explore?

[Barry]

Sure thing – a simple example would look a little like this:

add_filter( 'tribe_events_event_schedule_details', 'custom_schedule_details' );

function custom_schedule_details() {
	return tribe_get_start_date() . ' until ' . tribe_get_end_date();
}

Do check out the docs for both of those functions – linked to in my last reply – to see how you can specify other formats (you may also want to check out this guide to PHP date/time formatting).

Good luck 🙂

Hi Vera,

Can you let me know the value of the map view search distance limit setting (and the map view distance unit setting also)? These can be found in the Events → Settings → General tab.

Let me know!

[Barry]

Hi – interesting idea!

I’m afraid the plugin is not designed to facilitate quite this (unless of course you elevate their user role, which probably isn’t desirable). So, for something like this, you’d probably need to drive it forward as piece of custom development work – and you may well be able to minimize this by re-using existing code in the Facebook Events plugin.

Does that help?

[Barry]

Hi – great question!

It sounds like our Community Events plugin – in combination with our (free) core plugin The Events Calendar – would fit your needs here. It creates a submission form that can optionally be “locked down” to logged in users only.

Added to that, you can tell it to save new submissions as drafts or as pending review, allowing you to moderate before publishing.

Would that help?
