So I mean it’s possible that if for instance you export organizers, venues and events separately the “bond” between them breaks down. For instance, if you export only venues then I’m not really sure how the appropriate links with the related events would be re-established, since the import/export process does not hinge on maintaining post IDs as far as I am aware.
Well, probably because our forum’s search capabilities are rather poor. We do hope to address that some time in the future – and appreciate you bearing with us in the meantime 🙂
Google or another search engine of choice can also be used – most allow you to target your search against a site like this one by adding site:tri.be to your search terms.
OK. And are you using the Default Event Template or Default Page Template (check Events > Settings > Display)?
You’re right – I can see this in Chrome and Firefox. Definitely seems like a bug to me, I’ll have this reported and see if we can’t get a fix out there.
Cool, sounds like you’re on track in that case – do you need any further assistance with this specific issue?
Hi Sue: can you try adding this line to your theme’s stylesheet?
ol { padding-left: 0px; }If you need to make it more specific, so it doesn’t impact on other elements, you could make it:
#homebottomright ol { padding-left: 0px; }Does that help?
Great stuff – definitely go with what Tim is suggesting in the first instance here Marc – Tim is one of the people who put this fine plugin together and his approach isn’t one I was aware of but definitely looks cleaner.
Hi! Can you take a look at the second post in this thread and see if it helps?
Hi Beth and Thomas, let me address some of these points in turn:
Oh, just FYI, I do have a database prefix that is not the standard wp_, if that helps.
If you are using PRO 3.0.3 and core 3.0.1 this should no longer be an issue.
My calendar is still broken as well. I’m using The Events Calendar 3.0.1 and The Events Calendar Pro 3.0.3. I have the latest version of WordPress and Theme Thesis 1.8.
What immediately jumps out here is that you are using Thesis.
Many users have reported problems integrating with that particular theme and if your problems are indeed specific to Thesis (ie, the problem is resolved if you temporarily switch to an unmodified default theme such as Twenty Twelve) then I’m afraid that right now there probably isn’t too much we can do to help.
We do plan to develop a tutorial (or set of tutorials) to help people integrate our products with Thesis 2.0 – but we have not yet started on that.
On a side note, I hate that every time this plugin updates, I have to spend a bunch of time adjusting my CSS to make it fit back within the post area and look professional. Everything is always all over the place.
We definitely don’t want to cause you unnecessary work. Sometimes this is unavoidable – such as when a major update like 3.0 comes along. But so long as you follow the best practices laid out in our themer’s guide (ie, you are not editing files within the plugins themselves) then you should not have to adjust everything every time a minor release comes along.
That said, definitely let us know if you’re finding that’s not the case.
“There’s nothing here.” That’s what I get when I view the monthly calendar from any of the clicks for the plugin.
@Thomas: again because you are using Thesis there may unfortunately be a real limit on what we can do to help here.
Thesis is structured in a way quite unlike many other themes and so it’s far harder for us to offer up workarounds (indeed, it’s a premium theme that few of us on the team are familiar with). So, though we do make as much of an effort as we reasonably can to help people integrate their theme of choice, in the case of Thesis that support is regrettably far more limited than is the norm.
If I visit http://esportsuni.com/lessons/category/na-lol-lessons/month/ I of course see events belonging to that category.
If I pick one (for example http://esportsuni.com/lesson/7-25-pige0n/) I then go to the single event view for that event.
If I then hit my browser’s back button I return to http://esportsuni.com/lessons/category/na-lol-lessons/month/ and again only see event from that category.
So I’m not sure why you are experiencing what you are experiencing, but it’s not something I can replicate. What browser are you using? Have you tried a different browser and is the experience the same?
I’m not sure I do: I see Upcoming Events in the actual title element but also on the page – so it seems to me to be working as expected. Am I misunderstanding?
OK, if I’m understanding you correctly then the widget solves part of this problem already (it features the date and year in the calendar title).
So all you really need to do is make that link to the actual month view and do it in such a way that it is updated when a visitor navigates forward/backwards through the year. If that sounds correct, can you try using this code in your widgets/mini-calendar/grid.php override?
Hi Greg,
With large numbers of long-lived recurring events problems like this probably will crop up and you’re right – realistically there probably isn’t a massive amount we can do about that.
Before I go any further with your second question about deleting The Events Calendar content, I want to stress that if you do this you do so at your own risk and should take all necessary precautions first of all (namely, backup and know the process for restoring the backup).
The basic form of a query to delete events is:
DELETE FROM db.name.wp_posts WHERE wp_posts.post_type = 'tribe_events';It’s important to understand that, because of the way in which WordPress works, the data for an event (this also applies to venues tribe_venue and organizers tribe_organizer) is primarily split across two different tables – the posts table and the postmeta table. This is a one-to-many relationship – there are typically multiple postmeta entries that relate to any single post entry.
A single delete query like the one I provided above only affects one of those tables and would leave you with a number of “orphans” in the post meta table. That probably isn’t a problem in itself other than being untidy and consuming space that could be better spent on valid entries. If you’re good with SQL you may be able to devise a way around this, or else you might alternatively be interested in removing events programmatically with a pre-existing WordPress API function like wp_delete_post() which can take care of cleaning up any meta data at the same time.
One other quite different approach would be to use Tools > Export to export everything but event-related posts, then delete everything from the posts and posts meta tables – and re-import.
Last but not least, do not forget about The Events Calendar’s options data: you can locate these entries with a query something like:
SELECT * FROM db.name.wp_options WHERE option_name LIKE '%tribe%';
