Excellent 🙂

Hi there, Lauren!

I’m happy to take a look at this – but I should also point out that we are pretty limited in terms of how much support we can offer for custom code.

The snippet you shared seems like it would work, though, and on testing it out I didn’t have any problems. If I have an event this month in category “Ongoing” and an event next month in that same category, both are removed from month view when the snippet is in place.

If you aren’t finding the same thing, I wonder if perhaps you happen to have month view caching in place (you can find this option in the Events ‣ Settings ‣ Display tab) … sometimes when you are building customizations for month view it’s best to disable this, at least initially.

Hi Graham,

Though that might not be the improvement you’re looking for, it at least suggests the snippet is operating as expected (in other words, it is stopping Yoast’s plugin from interfering with the titles that our own plugin attempts to set) 🙂

With that in place, you can make further adjustments with some additional code along these lines:

add_filter( 'tribe_events_title_tag', function( $default_title ) {
	if ( ! tribe_is_month() ) {
		return $default_title;
	}

	return 'MONTH VIEW CUSTOM TITLE!';
} );

This could be added either to a custom plugin (preferred) or else to your theme’s functions.php file.

Naturally, you might want to tweak it to get the actual result you are looking for. In my example it only targets month view, but you could of course expand it to modify the title tag for all event views, or to add different text in different situations.

We’re limited in terms of supporting customizations of this sort, but I hope this at least gives you a starting point you can build on 🙂

Hi Renato,

Let’s revisit the primary method (for placing your events page on the site homepage).

Given you found this doesn’t work for you, I appreciate you may not wish to do further testing on your live site – so I wonder if it would be possible for you to install a fresh copy of WordPress in a subdirectory (so that you have something like example.com/testwp) and add our plugins there.

This will give us a clean environment we can troubleshoot within before we roll out any changes to your production site.

Can you give that a go?

You’re absolutely right, Abigail: that’s a solid working solution and using template overrides the way you outlined is the correct and best way to implement such a change at present 🙂

Hi Stephan,

In relation to ticket emails generally, we’re actively looking at ways to improve page break handling.

We have historically found this to be a tricky thing to get right, though, and the unfortunate reality is it isn’t always possible to achieve consistent behaviour across today’s most popular email clients.

Right now – to the best of our knowledge, at least – page breaks can fail when opened in Apple’s mail program but work well with Gmail, Thunderbird and most other clients. If you’re finding problems in some other mail application definitely let us know (otherwise, rest assured we’re investigating the Apple Mail angle).

Our optional extensions – including the PDF ticket extension – are provided in the hope they will be useful, but I should make it clear that they aren’t quite as high a priority as our official range of plugins. To that end, I can’t commit to a timeline about making PDF tickets available to logged out users – but it’s certainly on our radar.

I hope that clarifies things 🙂

…Hot on the heels of my last note, we have released a further update to The Events Calendar. As before, this is aimed at Event Aggregator users and resolves some issues with triggering scheduled imports:

theeventscalendar.com/the-events-calendar-4-5-12-2

Following Victor’s announcement, we have released a further update to The Events Calendar:

theeventscalendar.com/the-events-calendar-4-5-12-1

This is of particular interest to Event Aggregator users and brings the current version of The Events Calendar up to 4.5.12.1.

Hi Marcial,

Are you positive that the event in question is assigned to a venue with a valid address?

When I view this other event from your website, for example, I can see details about the venue and a map.

When I view the problematic event, though, no venue details or map displays.

I realize you noted having tried to assign to a location already: can you link me to whichever venue you associated it with? Or, if it is not currently assigned to a venue, can you do so and let me know if there is still a problem?

Thanks!

[Barry]

Thanks for posting back with the solution, Jay – I’m sure others may find this useful 🙂
