Howdy Marcus,
I wish we did have something like that. We have talked about the idea quite a bit. And recently accepted a feature request to gauge how much demand there is for this. Please vote on it if this is something you would like to see us build: http://tribe.uservoice.com/forums/195723-feature-ideas/suggestions/6610185-standalone-version-of-the-events-calendar-not-reli
It is also possible to run a WP install separate from your current site, and embed just the calendar portion of it in your site as an iframe. But of course this is a pretty big workaround, and might not fill your needs.
Does that answer your question?
Cheers!

Howdy Jberg,
I’d be happy to help you gets some updated info. Thanks for sharing your research to date.
There are two ways to hide it: CSS or by modifying a template. CSS is super easy but only hides it rather than preventing it from showing up in the code. This rule would hide it:
.saved_organizer {display:none;}If you wish to do more than hide it, and truly remove it from the HTML, then you would want to modify this template by following our Themer’s Guide /the-events-calendar-community-events/src/views/community/modules/organizer.php. You will notice on line ~41 it calls Tribe__Events__Admin__Organizer_Chooser_Meta_Box to output the saved organizers and the other fields all in one chunk. The easiest way to modify its ouput and only output the new organizer fields would be to copy and rename that class (located: /the-events-calendar/src/Tribe/Admin/Organizer_Chooser_Meta_Box.php) and remove the saved organizer portion. Then in the organizer.php file I mentioned first, change it to use your new renamed class.
Does that all make sense? Will that work for you? Please let me know!
Cheers!

Howdy Chris,
For sure! I would love to help. Applying this CSS to your site will change the background color to not be the same:
body .events-single.single-tribe_events .tribe-events-back a { background-color: transparent; }Just in case you did not have a chance to see it yet, our terms of service outline what types of support we can and can’t provide (click here). As you can see, technically we do not usually provide exact code like the above. But, sometimes I can get away with slipping some in here and there. I only mention this because I see you are a new user and wanted you to be aware of our scope of support early. If you have any feedback on these policies, or they do not sound like they will provide all what you expected, please let me know! We do have a 30 day refund period if you aren’t satisfied.
Does that answer your question?
Cheers!

Howdy Kevin,
I would love to have a look at your site and see what is different. I did try clicking the link your provided to your staging area, but it prompts for a username/password. In order to be able to help at all, I would definitely need to see what is different between your theme and the default.
I do wish to set your expectations early though. Our widget is designed to inherit some of the styles from your theme. We happily assist people with customizing it away from this default where it uses your theme’s colors and styles. However, this usually will require some knowledge on your part in terms of being able to write your own CSS and apply it to your site, thus following our advice.
Cheers!

Howdy Jeff,
Thanks for taking the time to reach out and report a suspected conflict. I just tried reproducing this issue.
I am unable to get similar results using my ics file, the Twenty Fourteen theme, and the plugin GT3 activated. Would it be possible for you to post a private reply here sharing the .ics file you are trying to import? Perhaps it is also related to the file you are trying to import.
Cheers!

Howdy Olivia,
Thanks for your patience. I did find a solution for your theme. The setting “Events template” in WP-Admin > Events > Settings > Display can be changed to a different template to fix this. I tested out a few templates. Default Events Template, and the Blank – Container series all worked. However the Default Page Template, and the Layout series all use excerpts instead of outputting the full content of the page.
If you need to use one of these styles, you will need to modify to use the_content() instead of the_excerpt(), which will require a decent measure of theming knowledge to accomplish. This would be the only two solutions, use a Template that works or modify your theme’s template to work. There is no other work around.
Does that help you Randy? I would think that the Default Events Template should work on any theme, including yours. If you need further assistance would you mind opening a new topic? We would love to help, but preferably in a different topic so it doesn’t distract from Olivia’s issue.
Does that all make sense? Cheers!

Howdy Tyler,
That’s a good question, I did not realize this myself until 2 seconds ago when I investigated. Buried in our code there is actually a shortcode argument called “operand”. If you wish to do AND instead of the default OR, specify it like so:
[tribe_events_list operand="AND"]Does that do the trick?
Cheers!

I appreciate the feedback, I do. We are constantly reevaluating our methods, which is how we chose the current one (years of testing what works best). I strongly disagree that this thread proves our methods don’t make sense. As was brought out you guys actually had different problems in the end, and so it would not have made sense to address them in the same thread anyways. But regardless I will keep your feedback in mind, and if we suddenly started getting more of the same we can go from there.
All the best,
BrookExcellent! You are very welcome. Let me know if you have any questions along the way while using that tutorial. Cheers!

Howdy Tommy,
Man i’m sick of you guys closing threads like it’s going out of fashion… Can you tell your MT support to stop doing that? freakin hell… whats the rush to close every damn thread so fast especially when it’s NOT resolved? I’ve noticed this several times…
We used to not close inactive threads. But we found many issues with this, and eventually changed policy. There were many problems that solved. Among them was people try to hijack the original poster’s topic with their own issue, that usually proves to be distinct from the original one. This caused a lot of user frustration. The original poster would have to read through sometimes lengthy exchanges that were irrelevant to them to get their answer. The hijacker would frequently not share a good description of their problem because they mistakenly believed it was related to the topic, which delays them getting proper help… The list goes on and on when it comes to the frustrations this caused. Hence our current policy.
Thank you for sharing the solutions Tommy and Carl. I am happy it is workign as needed now. If you guys have any more feedback or questions do let me know.
Cheers!

Sorry Olivia. I did not get that file straight away. But our email folks just sent it over last night after I had logged off. I will start researching this now.
My hope is that I can find a universal solution here Randy. I will get back to you as well with what I find.

Howdy Terresa,
That would certainly be possible. We even have a tutorial that walks you through adding those images to the widgets (click here). Is that what you are looking for?

Howdy guys,
I definitely understand that need. I wish we had a good solution, but we do not at this time. There are a variety of JavaScript issues with embedding the entire list view into another page that require a large bit of work for us to find solutions to before we can make the entire view embeddable.
That said you can modify the list widget/shortcode’s template to include event descriptions beneath the titles. This will modify the list widget everywhere, including the sidebar. Which is a huge part of the reason why I saw we do not have a “good solution”. If you are interested in this route though, first you will need to be familiar with WP Theming and our Themer’s Guide if you are not already. From there, you would want to modify /events-calendar-pro/src/views/pro/widgets/modules/single-event.php to add and style the description.
I wish I had better news. We are working on a solution, and currently it is set to be ready in version 4.2 of the plugin. But, in the interest of not setting expectations too high, keep in mind that in reality a lot can change between now and version 4.2. There is a possibility that it will not be quite ready by the time 4.2 ships, and will thus come after that.
Please let me know if you have any more questions. Cheers!
