Howdy Andrew,
It’s nice to meet you, and welcome to our forums. I am happy to dive into this in detail. Your theme is replacing the PHP $index value of our google maps ID with one of it’s own, which is causing the Google Maps JavaScript to not run. Would you mind sharing a copy of your theme with me? From there I would like to see what is necessary to get this working, and I can wlak you through those steps.
If you don’t mind sharing your theme, please email a .zip copy of it along with a link to this thread to support @ this website. Would that work for you?
Cheers!

Howdy Jeff,
I was not able to reproduce this problem with your .ics file and GT3 active. The only other thing we can try is using your theme as well. Perhaps it requires all three in place to reproduce this issue? If you are willing to share a zipped up copy of your theme, please email it so support at this website and include a link to this thread. From there I can try downloading the copy of your theme and seeing if I can reproduce the problem locally. If I can reproduce it might be possible to craft a solution or open a dialogue with the folks at GT3 if necessary.
Cheers!

Excellent! I just added the new license to your account. Your My Account link is in the upper right hand corner of this website. If you go to My Account > Licenses you will see the new license key. My Account > Downloads is where you will download the plugin.
Please let me know if you have any issues along the way with getting it activated. Cheers!

Howdy awakening,
Good call on adding that to your child theme’s CSS. That is a great spot.
You can certainly adjust that CSS to only display for some devices or screen size using media queries. Even the first example in that link would probably be ideally suited to limiting that CSS to phones:
@media (max-width: 600px) { body .tribe-events-calendar .tribe-events-tooltip { visibility:hidden; } }You could replace the code you already pasted in to the child theme with that. That do what you wanted?
Cheers!

Thanks for leaving that up, Stacey. I just tried downloading it from my Android and it worked great. I got the iCal file, actually both from the original and the test links. I did however get a bunch of strange JS popups on the site when I visited that page on Android with Google Chrome (the default browser). They looked like the contained diagnostic information. But ignoring those I got a valid iCal file and was able to import it into my calendar.
It is extremely strange that I can not reproduce, since I am using the same browser and OS as the gentleman from AppPresser. It’s possible you fixed this. Upon further research errors like that are often because of a misconfigured server that is trying to send everything as text/html, which doesn’t work for files that aren’t HTML such as iCal files. However, a conflicting plugin or theme could also misconfigure the server for you, and disabling it will fix.
Did you do something in the meantime that would have fixed it? Is it working for you as well now?
Cheers!

For sure! I am happy to help. Definitely agree that it feels like cheating. One huge benefit in this case is that the CSS way is such a small modification it is even less likely to maintenance as we continually release plugin updates. Probably the way to go here.
Thanks for getting back. let us know if you ever need anything else. Cheers!

My mistake, Tyler. I should have tested that first. There is one missing element to getting this to work. Inside of this file /events-calendar-pro/src/Tribe/Shortcodes/Events_List.php on line 48 there is a variable called $default_args. It needs the following line added to it:
'operand' => 'AND',In my tests that added the operand to the shortcode, and should make your above shortcode work. It working for you as well?

Excellent! I am happy the fix was just a setting change. Thanks again for sharing your theme and your patience while I investigated it specifically. Happy calendaring!

Howdy Awakening,
Thank you for sharing the usability feedback. We do frequent usability tests with folks who have not touched the calendar before to find areas we can improve. We had not seen that yet.
The easiest way to hide all tooltips would be to add this CSS to one of your theme’s CSS files:
body .tribe-events-calendar .tribe-events-tooltip { visibility:hidden; }If you wish to selectively hide it from some views, like Month, but not others, like Week, then you can do that by modifying Month View’s template file (/the-events-calendar/src/views/month/content.php) on line 55 you will see a call to tribe_get_template_part( ‘month/tooltip’ ); Just delete that and the tooltip is gone. The best way to modify these files is by following our Themer’s Guide.
Does that all make sense? Would the CSS method work easiest for you?

Howdy Stacey,
You are not wrong. Somehow portions of that were encoded when I pasted it. The WP Text editor some times does this. Hopefully the second time is a charm! Try this:
Edit: Nope it did it again. Try this pastebin link instead: http://pastebin.com/TYC5Rrd1

Howdy Kevin,
Thanks for taking the time to research this, and share what you’ve found thus far. I’ll gladly pickup where you are.
What have you tried for adding a slider or image above the calendar? There are numerous ways to do it. If your slider has a shortcode for instance just copy/paste the shortcode into the setting box “Add HTML before event content” found in WP-Admin > Events > Settings > Display. If you prefer an image instead, then just click the Add Media button in that same box. You could even use this as hacky work around to push the calendar down if you preferred instead, just press enter a couple times to create a few empty paragraphs above the calendar, pushing it down a line or two.
If you want full control over how this looks though, and have some WP Theming experience, checkout our themer’s guide. This would allow you to fully style the content above the calendar, show different content on different pages, and so forth. Using this you could modify your theme’s CSS to push the calendar down. Insert a PHP slider. Or manually put in an HTML image.
Do any of those options work for your situation? If I misunderstood or something please let me know.
Cheers!

Howdy Rachel,
Good question. The new version is due out in the middle of next month, so about a month away. We are expecting to release the ticket meta collector alongside 4.0. Both of these will have free betas starting soon (click here to signup).
I hope that info helps, and regardless of your choice it fills your needs. Please let me know if you have further questions.
Cheers!

Howdy inkmouse2,
Thank you for detailing the problem, and reporting back. I don’t like having to jump between two support teams, so I appreciate your patience here.
This is possibly related to the fact that those Export links are generated by JS. This is a weakness in our calendar, and one we have a ticket out to improve. It does currently work with compatible themes, but we could broaden compatibility by removing the reliance on JS here.
We could probably test this out easy enough. Try adding the following HTML to the content body of one of your events pages:
<a class="tribe-events-button" href="http://www.whoknewytown.com/event/coolspring-corn-maze/2015-10-02/?appp=1&ical=1&tribe_display=" title="Download .ics file">+ iCal Export Test</a>`Now visit that page and click this new test button in Android. Does it download?
Cheers!

Howdy Awakeninghearts,
I would love to help you with that. There is not a setting for that feature. To be upfront, we have not seen enough users want to do this in order to justify building a setting.
Our mantra here is to build popular requests into settings, and for everything else make it trivially easy to modify via code. That way we can avoid becoming a big bloat plugin with a million settings no one really uses, and thus get all the complaints associated with bloat such as slowness and hard to learn.
Does that answer your question?
Cheers!
