Hi Gary, can you create a new thread? Then you will be in a better position to share URLs confidentially (at the point of opening the thread) – plus that sounds like a quite different problem and really should be kept separate.
Thanks!
Hi!
A) Is this possible to do by modifying the widgets that come with Event Calendar Pro?
Yes, absolutely it is or you could even code your own widget to do this.
B) Is there any repository or location where people are sharing modified widgets so that I might be able to find something close to what I need.
All I can suggest is searching the usual places, such as the plugin repo at wordpress.org, GitHub and Sourceforge.
C) Are there any easy ways to have the event calendar entries synced with a Google Calendar?
It depends on what you mean by easy. Google does make APIs available for this sort of thing, so if you are comfortable working with those you will probably be able to achieve pretty much whatever you want here 🙂
Great question.
If tribe_is_month() is called too early in the request (specifically, before the parse_query hook runs) then it will result in a boolean false result regardless of what is actually about to be displayed. Looking at Widget Logic, it makes it’s assessment earlier in the request, hence the problem.
So alternative approaches here could be to create a different sidebar to be used only on event pages or else you might do something basically similar to Widget Logic, but adapted to work its magic later in the lifetime of the request.
Hi Steph,
I’m not sure – it really depends on how your theme is putting the menu together. With Twenty Twelve for instance this doesn’t seem to be a problem so far as I can see.
Perhaps it is doing something non-standard here?
Can you clarify what you are referring to when you say the full width function? It would definitely be possible to resize and reposition the map, if you wanted to do that. Have you checked out the new Themer’s Guide?
https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/events-calendar-themers-guide/
Also, I can’t seem to find release notes anywhere for the new release.
I’m not sure that we do, but between resources such as the updated themer’s guide (above), the updated new user primers and of course our blog content you can get a pretty good and detailed sense of what has changed.
We have a fix in the works for this so if you can stay tuned we’ll hopefully have this resolved fairly quickly.
Some users have worked around it by creating a “convenience category” called something like All Events – and then link to that category view instead of the main calendar, which could be a possible workaround for you here, at least until a definitive fix is released.
Hi asilverton,
It works for me (in 2.0.11). Have you tried our standard troubleshooting steps here?
* If you disable all other plugins, except for those by Modern Tribe – which if they are not up-to-date should certainly be in synch (ie, do not mix and match The Events Calendar 2.0.11 with Events Calendar PRO 3.0)
* Switch to a default, unmodified theme such as Twenty Twelve
* Now test and see if the problem is still present
What you’re describing sounds like expected behaviour – similarly, the calendar’s own upcoming (or “list”) view will also show events where the start date has passed but the end date is in the future.
Hi artifaktcom, if you open an event in the event editor and navigate directly to it (view event) can you see the individual events?
In other words, does this problem only exist on the ‘main calendar page’? If so, do you happen to have a static front page setup via the Settings > Reading options screen?
Hi Bryan,
I don’t have a copy of widget logic to hand but that isn’t what I find when I do my own testing. Besides your use of the conditional in widget logic, where else are you applying this (such as in your example)?
Using it too early, or too late, could possibly return an erroneous result.
Hi Victoria!
Sorry to hear that you’ve had something of a rough ride here – and thank you Sean for pitching in with support and advice here 🙂
3.0 was indeed a major update and so much has changed. Through our blog and newsletters we did try to emphasize that so that users could take precautions and even budget for additional time and resources (or hold off from updating, even). If we failed to communicate that satisfactorily in your case though then please accept our apologies.
As Sean covered, the tribe-events directory is something you would need to create in your theme, and you would place your own custom templates in there.
We’ve updated our Themer’s Guide so that should be your first port of call to see what has changed.
For any more specific questions definitely feel free to create new threads as needed.
Definitely possible, yes, but not something our plugins will facilitate “out of the box” – you’d primarily need knowledge of developing with WooCommerce to build this sort of customization (or else work with someone who is already au fait with its workings).
Not a massive effort, I wouldn’t think, but it’s not something we would really be able to help too much with, either.
You’re right – I’m going to file a bug report and hopefully this will be transformed into a translatable string in a maintenance release.
Sorry for the inconvenience – and thank you for reporting!
Hi mrboy31,
Yes your widget seems to have ballooned in size, for some reason! First thing to do (if you haven’t already) is read up on our Themer’s Guide – link over in Useful Resources on the right.
Your theme (“Hustle”) specifies some padding for table cells which is partly responsible for this (see the main theme stylesheet, lines 505-511) and we can possibly mitigate this by adding some CSS of our own.
For instance, you could add these rules to your tribe-events.css override:
table.tribe-mini-calendar td,
table.tribe-mini-calendar th {
padding: 0.34em 0.6em;
}That file should be placed in a subdirectory of your theme, itself called tribe-events, so that you have:
wp-content/themes/YOUR_THEME/tribe-events/tribe-events.css
Does that help?
