MemberI’m glad you resolved this 🙂
With regards to methodology for resolving conflicts, that is harder to answer. It’s certainly important to have development and staging sites to test things out and see how they play with existing components before integrating them in to a live or production site (and this could prevent something that causes a problem ever entering the main flow).
If you have two or more items which conflict with one another, though, and cannot readily dispose of any of them, then really that’s something to assess on a case-by-case basis. It might be the issue can be resolved by some new code that effectively smooths over the cracks, or it might be one item just has to go. Then again, there are those rare occasions when directly modifying core plugin or theme code is the best course of action – but I’m not sure there is any one size fits all solution that can be offered up, I’m afraid.
Is there anything else we can help with re the initial issue?

MemberHi Adam,
Sounds like a fun project – I have to admit though that’s not something I’ve tried before and I would really count it as an advanced customization. Apart from including the various templates that make up the Tribe bar you would need to ensure all scripts/stylesheets it depends upon are enqueued and that any variables it expects to be in scope have been injected.
I get the impression you’re already aware of that sort of thing but, I’m afraid, this sort of customization just isn’t something we can really help you with. It’s really not something that was designed with inclusion on arbitrary pages in mind – so though I’ve got no doubt it’s possible, we’ve have to leave the nuts and bolts to you.
Good luck!

MemberHi cureforthecommon,
You could override and customize single-event.php (please see our Themer’s Guide for the lowdown on doing so) and insert something like this piece of code at a suitable position within it, that would then list any further instances of the event, so long as it is indeed a recurring event.
Do note that code is just a starting point, you would certainly need to add a little polish and some safety checks would be recommended.
Hope that gets you started!

MemberWe’ve been aware of general issues along these lines and I believe some changes were effected in our last release to help with this. I do notice however that on that URL dated 2003 the robots meta tag is instructing bots to index them (it should be instructing them not to) – I wonder then if some other facet of your system is interfering here.
You can basically see this by going to that same URL and viewing the source. Where you see:
<meta name="robots" content="index, follow" />I would expect to see:
<meta name="robots" content="noindex, follow" />Can you confirm if deactivating all other plugins and switching to a default, unmodified theme resolves this?

MemberHi Bob: there’s certainly an issue there and we’re aware of it – please accept our apologies for the inconvenience – but we can’t unfortunately offer up an immediate fix as some broader changes are in progress right now which have a bearing on this. However, it’s definitely on the tracker and is something we’re keen to fix as soon as we practicably can.
January 13, 2014 at 2:33 pm in reply to: Advice for creating a new field similar to Event Categories #91502Barry
MemberHi Sean!
So if you want to duplicate the functionality of event categories then a new custom taxonomy is probably the way to go. This is really a general WordPress-development task and not something we can offer a huge amount of guidance on, but the Codex certainly covers it in some depth.
Hope that helps!

MemberDirectly modifying plugin code definitely isn’t the way to do things, you’re right!
The list of events is basically built on two systems – one is Advanced Post Manager and the other is WP List Tables (the structure provided by WordPress itself which we are using to create the tabular list of events). Both have a number of hooks within them that you might take advantage of – this is an advanced customization however and, regrettably, not one we can offer too much help for.

MemberHi fortunemanagement, it’s possible what you are experiencing is a different problem – especially if the fix you referenced did not resolve things.
Is the slider an integral part of the theme? If so, can you share a copy of the theme (perhaps by posting a download link as a private reply)? Thanks!
Barry
MemberI’m really sorry but at this time we cannot support integration with WPML. We do realize it is a popular plugin, but complete and seamless integration is not without its challenges and there isn’t too much help we can realistically offer at this time.
It may be better to approach the WPML support crew or work with a suitable developer who can assist in ironing out the wrinkles for this sort of thing.

MemberHi Peppermint Soda – that’s unfortunate.
I’m not sure how much we’re going to be able to do here, but can I just confirm the problem is only with the Fusion Shortcode editor – or at least that is the only component which is affected – and it is only when S2 Member and Events Calendar PRO are active (ie, having The Events Calendar itself activated with S2 doesn’t cause any issues)?
Can you also fill me in on what Fusion Shortcode editor is – is that a plugin (if so I can’t seem to locate it on the wordpress.org repo) or is it something bundled with your theme?
Thanks!
Barry
MemberHi Tara,
I just visited your site and it seemed fine – however I do note you seem to be using WP Super Cache which in simple terms tries to make your site a little faster by saving pages and serving those saved versions to users instead of regenerating them from scratch each time – however this also means those pages are effectively ‘frozen in time’ until the cache is purged at whatever interval you have determined in the settings.
Is that a possibility here?

MemberHi lfbales,
Do you mean you want the event editor to be pre-populated with some sort of boilerplate text when you create new events, or something else?

MemberIt’s been a while so I’ll go ahead and close this thread. Of course if you need further help for this or any other issue please do feel free to create a new thread or threads as needed. Thanks!
