Hi all – sorry for the inconvenience. There is indeed an issue with the HTML for the venue website link being exposed – this was an oversight on our part and we apologize for the inconvenience.

Can you check out this workaround and see if that helps?

[Barry]

Sorry for the inconvenience there, everyone: we’ll get this slated for a fix as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can workaround this fairly easily with a template override.

Please see our Themer’s Guide if you’re unfamiliar with this process, but the basic idea in this case is to set up a new file at:

wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME/tribe-events/modules/meta/venue.php

If you don’t already have a tribe-events sub-directory within your theme then go right and and create it. Then, add the following code to that new file:

<?php
if ( ! tribe_address_exists() ) return;
$phone = tribe_get_phone();
$website = tribe_get_venue_website_link()
?>

<div class="tribe-events-meta-group tribe-events-meta-group-venue">
	<h3 class="tribe-events-single-section-title"> <?php _e('Venue', 'tribe-events-calendar' ) ?> </h3>
	<dl>
		<?php do_action( 'tribe_events_single_meta_venue_section_start' ) ?>

		<dd class="author fn org"> <?php echo tribe_get_venue() ?> </dd>

		<?php
		// Do we have an address?
		$address = tribe_address_exists() ? '<address class="tribe-events-address">' . tribe_get_full_address() . '</address>' : '';

		// Do we have a Google Map link to display?
		$gmap_link = tribe_show_google_map_link() ? tribe_get_map_link_html() : '';
		$gmap_link = apply_filters( 'tribe_event_meta_venue_address_gmap', $gmap_link );

		// Display if appropriate
		if ( ! empty( $address ) ) echo '<dd class="location">' . "$address $gmap_link </dd>";
		?>

		<?php if ( ! empty( $phone ) ): ?>
			<dt> <?php _e( 'Phone:', 'tribe-events-calendar' ) ?> </dt>
			<dd class="tel"> <?php esc_html_e( $phone ) ?> </dd>
		<?php endif ?>

		<?php if ( ! empty( $website ) ): ?>
			<dt> <?php _e( 'Website:', 'tribe-events-calendar' ) ?> </dt>
			<dd class="url"> <?php echo $website ?> </dd>
		<?php endif ?>

		<?php do_action( 'tribe_events_single_meta_venue_section_end' ) ?>
	</dl>
</div>

That should resolve the issue with the venue website link. Does that help here?

[Barry]

That’s excellent advice, thanks @farandwild 🙂

@digitaliway does that help here? If not you could also check out this (unofficial) plugin and it’s [event_embed] widget or shortcode support for widgets.

Hi – sorry you’re facing difficulties.

I’m not quite sure why you’d be hitting that problem but would you be able to try upgrading manually? Essentially, grab and unzip the plugin folders then upload them by FTP – overwriting the existing plugin directories (which you could delete first of all).

Please do ensure you backup as an added precaution before trying this, though.

Is that possible here?

[Barry]

Hi webquest – definitely feel free to follow this thread, but if the problem turns out not to be the same in your case it would be easiest to split your own query off into a new thread 🙂

@barrywales it looks like you’ve customized the list widget – can you confirm? If so, please be aware that a number of changes were implemented with regards to the list widget. Can you try removing your customizations and then check if it works as expected?

[Barry]

So essentially you want the calendar “look and feel” of Gameplan but in the context of your existing theme?

It’s definitely possible to make it appear however you would like, through a combination of template overrides and custom CSS and our Themer’s Guide outlines the basics of this.

Theoretically you could copy across the custom tribe-events templates from one theme to another (and the CSS) but I can’t guarantee it would “just work”: their templates may use custom functions that don’t exist in the target theme and the CSS may use selectors that are invalid if the templates are copied across verbatim.

There’s certainly no reason though you couldn’t study Gameplan’s templates and CSS and try porting it across: I’d anticipate you having to make some changes here and there but that’s what theming is all about 🙂

Good luck!

[Barry]

Yes you’re definitely on the right track 🙂

The list widget isn’t formatted quite like the list that appears below the calendar widget, but a template override is certainly the right way to go if you want to make them closer in appearance.

[Barry]

Hi guys, I’m sorry you’re facing difficulties here.

Can you confirm exactly what is happening when you do have Events Calendar PRO activated? Do you see the so called “white screen of death” or does the login/admin page appear to be loading for a long period and then time out after a period of 30 or more seconds?

[Barry]

Hi – I’m sorry you’re hitting this.

Can you point me to a live example of the problem or explain in more detail what’s happening? Certainly events that have expired shouldn’t display when the widget initially loads, though if you click on a date in the past that does contain old events they will display under those circumstances.

It would be great to see an example of this issue 🙂

Let me know!

[Barry]

I’m sorry you’re facing difficulties.

Can you confirm that it was definitely Events Calendar PRO you updated and not The Events Calendar? That error sounds exactly like what I’d expect if The Events Calendar was updated but Events Calendar PRO was left behind.

Let me know!

[Barry]

That’s odd – did this just happen all of a sudden or is this a new site?

Can you try our regular steps of deactivating all other plugins (except for The Events Calendar and Events Calendar PRO) and switching to a default, unmodified theme?

If everything works under those conditions, start reactivating everything again one-at-a-time and see if you can isolate whatever might be conflicting. This is often the fastest way to drill down and figure out what’s going wrong.

Let me know how you get on 🙂

[Barry]

Well, it’s not specific to any particular page or template – it’s just that some of the examples relate to the cart page. On taking a second look, though, possibly all you need is a snippet like this one:

$ticket_product_id = get_post_meta( $ticket['ticket_id'], '_tribe_wooticket_product', true );
$ticket_product = get_post( $ticket_product_id );
$ticket_description = $ticket_product->post_excerpt;

You could use this at the appropriate point within the ticket template (of course, the $ticket array must be set so ideally you would use it within the main loop).

Does that help?

[Barry]

Glad that initial issue is resolved: one of the team will be along to help in the other thread as soon as possible. I’ll go ahead and close this one – and thanks again for your patience and support 🙂

[Barry]

Thanks for sharing!

So I’m not sure why the address info didn’t carry across. I tried importing that event and the venue details came across as expected (but I do not there is no venue information on the single event page you linked to – did you subsequently remove the venue?).

The displacement in the import time is possibly easier to explain: the event is taking place at 2014-06-13T17:00:00-0700 which seems correct (UTC minus 7hrs). Given the gap between that and what you ended up with is it possible that you haven’t configured your WordPress timezone settings (in the General Settings screen) and they are still at UTC+0 (essentially, London time)?

That would explain the correction upon import where it was effectively pulled forward 7hrs.

Let me know!

[Barry]

Definitely, please do 🙂

I’ll close this thread but if this does resurrect itself please just create a new thread and we’ll look into it (but hopefully, of course, there will be no problem).

Thanks again.
