I believe it is essentially a rewrite problem and if you want to try the steps outlined by Roberto please feel free (thanks Roberto!) … do be aware that changes to core plugin code are likely to be wiped out upon updating, however, so although ideally we will anyway have a fix in place soon just keep in mind that you may need to re-establish this.

Hi Mike – that’s a pain. Perhaps you could create a feature request for Jetpack about this? Since there’s not too much more we can offer here I’ll go ahead and close this thread – but of course if there’s anything else please do feel free to create new threads as needed 🙂

Hi!

Sorry about this – it is a known bug and one we hope to fix in an upcoming maintenance release. In the interim you can try the fix listed under Useful Code Snippets over on the right of the forum page:

Recurring Events – Fix for Update Recurring Events Dialog

Excellent, sounds like you’re all sorted here and hopefully we will indeed see a change here further down the line.

Thanks again!

Hi w3developing! I’m afraid that, rather as is the case here this sort of custom development task is not one we can help with.

Thanks for contacting us!

Hi Doug,

I’m afraid this is very much the domain of custom development. Modifying the query to exclude specific categories, or else testing at the point of generating widget output (in a template override for instance) to see if an event belongs to a “banned” category and deciding to skip it are two possible approaches here.

The details would need to be worked out by you though. If it helps, we can provide you with a list of experienced freelancers who may be able to assist?

Hi w3developing! Unfortunately we can’t help with custom development questions of this nature – and would have to leave it to you to dig in and determine if/how it can be done.

Hi!

Taking http://14.140.153.162:8082/wordpressasp/events/upcoming-events#sthash.Gvp7wI8j.dpuf as an example, it seems you currently have no upcoming events and, following WordPress conventions, The Events Calendar is returning a 404 status. My guess is that either your theme or WPSEO is deciding to change the title to include “Page not found” on that basis.

Things you can explore:

* This thread discusses ways to workaround this so that empty event views don’t return a 404 status
* You could investigate if it is your theme or WPSEO that’s doing this and set up filters to counter it

Does that help or at least give you a starting point?

Hi Mike,

I’m not familiar with Jetpack but on taking a quick look at your site it seems as if they might be set to appear on posts but not pages. Is there perhaps a setting the Jetpack provides that allows you to designate the sorts of post type it acts on?

Thanks!

[Barry]

Hi Roy: is the category populated with any events? In other words, is it non-empty?

[Barry]

Hi Stephen,

I don’t think we’ve got any recommended ways of doing this at this point in time – and there is unlikely to be a one size fits all means of doing this.

That said, we can definitely leave this discussion open so other members of the community can pitch in with suggestions.

Thanks!

Hi Derek,

We can’t help too much with theme-specific functions (you seem to be using Genesis here) but in general terms you could for instance override and customize our default-template.php template and add your call to the events sidebar from there.

On a sort of generic WordPress level you might do this with the dynamic_sidebar() function. If you want or need to use the genesis_sidebar() function you should refer to the documentation provided by the theme vendor for that.

Hope that helps 🙂

Hi Leland – I’m going to move this across to the Community Events forum so our expert there can help you 🙂

[Barry]

Hi Dominic: does the Recurring event instances setting (found in Events → Settings → General) broadly meet your needs here?

[Barry]

Hi Ad,

I’m afraid that’s not possible “out of the box” – you’d need to do some amount of custom dev work to make this happen.
