Hi – so sorry you’ve hit difficulties here.

What I’d recommend is updating all of your plugins to the latest versions:

• Events Calendar PRO 3.5.1
• The Events Calendar 3.5.1
• Filter Bar 3.5

If automated updates aren’t working you can grab fresh copies here and here and update manually which might get you back on track 🙂

Does that help?

Hi Ben, sounds like an interesting customization 🙂

Our Themer’s Guide, tutorials and technical docs are going to be useful in a general sense here:

• Themer’s Guide
• Tutorials
• Technical Docs

In essence this is probably going to be based on customizing the pro/widgets/mini-calendar-widget.php template and pulling in a new template of your own – or just dropping in some custom code to present this additional list of multiday events.

From there I guess you have a choice of working some magic to retrieve only multiday events or else you could retrieve all events in a given month and retain/display only those that are multiday, which may be easier (and you could use tribe_get_events() to form a custom query for this purpose).

Does that help?

Without having a copy of your theme to hand it’s going to be tricky to work out what’s conflicting: would it be possible for you to share login credentials (via private reply) so I can navigate to the screen in question and see what’s happening?

[Barry]

Interesting, I can see why that might be troublesome. Can your client not simply review the attendee list for each event, though?

[Barry]

That’s strange – sorry you’re hitting difficulties. I wonder if it may even be theme related? I don’t really think this is anything to do with EDD Tickets itself, though, unless I’m misunderstanding.

Can you link me to a live example?

[Barry]

Hi: so I’m not sure this question is really specific to EDD Tickets if I’m understanding you correctly. Essentially, you want to remove the next and previous links from single event pages – is that correct?

If so you could certainly customize single-event.php (see the Themer’s Guide for details) and remove this code:

<h3 class="tribe-events-visuallyhidden"><?php _e( 'Event Navigation', 'tribe-events-calendar' ) ?></h3>
<ul class="tribe-events-sub-nav">
	<li class="tribe-events-nav-previous"><?php tribe_the_prev_event_link( '<span>&laquo;</span> %title%' ) ?></li>
	<li class="tribe-events-nav-next"><?php tribe_the_next_event_link( '%title% <span>&raquo;</span>' ) ?></li>
</ul><!-- .tribe-events-sub-nav -->

Does that help here?

Hi!

Great questions.

I personally would advise choosing the ticketing addon on the basis of the ecommerce plugin that will best fits your needs or that you are most familiar with. If that means Easy Digital Downloads in your case, then EDD Tickets is probably going to be a good match – all our ticketing addons (for WooCommerce, Shopp, WP E-Commerce and EDD) essentially work in the same manner and so that part of the experience is going to be fairly consistent regardless of which ecommerce plugin underpins it.

I do financial seminars/events, usually 3 or 4 per month, and I need to allow folks to register and download/print a ticket for each event.

Great, sounds like a good match here and EDD Tickets should meet your basic needs here.

Also, I need to be able to design the look and content of the tickets, preferably in the WP Admin somewhere if possible. Do any of these allow that?

This may be the only sticking point, if you need a visual means of customizing the tickets. Though they have been built to be customizable you’d need to do so via a template override and that means working at code level (to some extent, at least – I wouldn’t say it necessarily entails “heavy” coding, but really this depends on whether you are making some cosmetic changes or are wanting to pull in additional data, etc).

Please do check out the following info on EDD Tickets in particular and our Themer’s Guide just to get a sense of how customization work is handled with our suite of plugins:

• EDD Tickets product page
• New user primer for EDD Tickets
• Themer’s Guide

I hope that helps and, if you purchase, I look forward to seeing you on the forums!

Let me know if we can help with anything else 🙂

Hmm, that’s not good. Are you in a position to revert to a backup? One of the team came up with this snippet which should resolve the problems that occur during import – so rolling back then running the import again with that in place could provide a working solution to this.

[Barry]

OK – is it a custom widget you’ve written by yourself? If so, those functions I just referenced ought to do the trick 🙂

[Barry]

OK – can you try adding an eventDisplay property to your query arguments with a value of custom – does that help?

[Barry]

Hi – here’s a summary:

• Morning: 6am until noon
• Afternoon: noon until 5pm
• Evening: 5pm until 9pm
• Night: 9pm until 6am

All day does indeed mean all day events at this time.

Does that help?

Hi Sean,

I’m not sure that it’s a bug or that the primer isn’t just a little vague.

I definitely understand what you’re saying, though, and while we don’t have a snippet to offer up here I’ll certainly log this as something we should consider improving (in terms of the actual Filter Bar behaviour) as what you’re saying makes perfect sense.

Thanks!

[Barry]

Hi – great question!

Though embedding the calendar into other pages/posts isn’t natively supported at this time, you can certainly open any of our views (month view, list view, week view etc) in a specific category. So there’s no reason for instance you couldn’t simply like to the appropriate categories from your menu – which would basically achieve the same thing.

Does that help? Let us know if we can clarify anything else.

Thanks!

[Barry]

Hmm, interesting. It’s hard to say: I can only guess that some piece of data wasn’t pulled in by your importer plugin and that editing and re-publishing/re-saving them triggers a correction – but I can only really make a guess there.

Not knowing what your XML data looked like our how this other plugin works I’m not sure there’s too much we’re going to be able to offer here, unfortunately.

Hi Alicia – there certainly seem to be duplicates in month view but I wonder if that isn’t just a side effect of the fact that they are both recurring and multiday.

For instance, you have an event running from April 1 – April 10 and so it will appear on each of those 10 days in the calendar. The same event is set to recur daily until April 24. With that in mind, you are going to see a lot of them, ie in month view you will see:

• 1 instance on April 1
• 2 instances on April 2
• 3 instances on April 3
• …
• 10 instances on April 10 and every day from then until April 24
• April 25 onward they will decrease again, by 1 instance per day

Is this the problem you are referring to? If so I’m not sure it is quite the same upgrade issue others have been caught by (and of course if that’s all intentional and the issue is something else please let me know and provide an example).

To deal with the above issue though you should be able to edit all events in the series and simply adjust the start and end dates so that each instance spans only one day.

Let me know!

(Daniella – if your issue is the same as the above please do feel free to monitor this thread, but if you need assistance for your own specific scenario it would be great if you could create a fresh thread of your own. Thanks!)
