Hey Rob, Ok I worked it out. The code in the most recent release of The Event Calendar uses the fix in the other forum post ($date = $wp_query->query_vars[‘eventDate’] . “-01”; ). I actually had to revert the file back to its original code ($date = $wp_query->query_vars[‘eventDate’];) and it worked.

So not sure why or how, but things are working as they should

Hi Rob..after the last update the fix for this issues found below looks to be implemented however it does not work.

https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/date-selector-on-grid-calendar-view-is-off-by-a-month/#post-14833

If I read the fix right, it adds an offset to the dropdown where the original code had none. I’ve played with the offset, even removed it but nothing changes. Is there a permanent fix for this?
need a fix for this

Hi guys,
Thanks for the great article…as you know I’m mostly a noob when it comes to code so this article was actually really insightful. Needless to say though I still couldn’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. That aside, the reason I’m trying so hard to cleanup that CE login page is b/c

A. Having Comments appear on a register page looks really sloppy. Using the standard formatting of the register page, the Register hyperlink blends into the page and doesn’t stand out with a comment panel right below it. Based on the other thread you guys are working on removing this, but in the meantime I was hoping for something to make the Register link pop.

B. I would have thought that instead of sending users to the CE login page http://sustainableelements.ca/events/community/add/
you would have opted to redirect them to this one
http://sustainableelements.ca/wp-login.php
which is where unregistered users who click on the ‘Register’ hyperlink end up anyway to register. Also by directing users to wp-login automatically it takes one page out of the navigation and site developers can make use of customization plugins for enabling social logins and styling customizations with relative ease.

If you can tell me how to direct CE to the wp-login page instead of the default CE login page that would be fantastic. I tried using a few different plugins to force a user to be logged in (ones that direct to wp-login) before viewing the CE page but they wouldn’t trump CEs code.

Thanks!

no luck with the above code…assuming I put it in the right place..in my case either the CE .CSS file or in my custom css Thesis file. It could be because I use DISQUS as a comment system instead of the default wordpress. I do know that DISQUS will disappear on my other pages/posts if I toggle comments in the page/posts options, but obviously that does not appear to be active with CE.

I found a few entries in the .CSS file for the plugin for #loginform. However if I add CSS to any of these to change the color of the text or some other font change, nothing appears to happen. Really at the least I just need to make the register hyperlink larger onthe login page as its barely noticeable. any additional direction would be really appreciated.
Cheers,
C

Hey Jonah has this been addressed in the latest release of the community events addon?

[Carlos]

good fix Steve! thxs!

[Carlos]

Any headway on this….getting some very confused emails from my users

[Carlos]

Scratch that. Went to do a demo fo the site, and it turns out the code above completely trashed the event calendar page replacing it with the home page. I have a feeling it may be because I did not properly define the ECP post type. Any suggestions how to get new events to show up on the home page feed? http://sustainableelements.ca/
Thanks a bunch guys!

[Carlos]

Hey Rob…not sure if it was just me but I could have sworn that ECP posts were being added to my blog feed previously (again it could just be me). Resaved permalinks, but no go. Found this nice piece of code to manually add custom post types to the blog feed. Works great so I’m happy.

function my_get_posts( $query ) {
if ( ( is_home() && $query->is_main_query() ) || is_feed() )
$query->set( ‘post_type’, array( ‘post’, ‘tribe_events’ ) );
return $query;
}
add_filter( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘my_get_posts’ );

PS here’s the site if you want to take a look. A tad more cleanup to do and it shoudl be good to launch next week. http://sustainableelements.ca/

[Carlos]

Thanks guys for all the help!

I’ve had Eureka moment..mind you it meant trashing my entire wordpress installation and doing a completely fresh install.

ECP 2.05 and Thesis 1.83 work perfectly together. When it doubt start from scratch!

[Carlos]

Things I’d like to see:
– social media buttons for venues and organizers viewable in the single event page

-“I’m attending” sidebar widget with gravitar integration

– dropdown filter widget for event categories, venue, organize, and city

-and I’d second the google map with all events! add it alongside the Event List & Calendar buttons.

[Carlos]

Thanks Jonah & tri.be, totally understand and appreciate all the help..if the code you gave me is solid, and my site is just being stupid, than I’ll have to take it from there.

One question though…is there any way to download a copy of EC and ECP 2.04? (I made a stupid mistake I wont go into) That way I can throw the old version back up and continue playing with 2.05 on the development side. If it isn’t publicly available, I’d really appreciate it if you guys could email it my way [email protected] .
thanks again!

[Carlos]

Thanks Jonah! Sounds good…I’ll tinker around…thought I’d ask in case it was something easily executed through the standard ECP coding/interface. I’ll add it to the feature request forum.

[Carlos]

Hey Jonah thanks for the code! The new conditional code is great. I tried implementing it as you had it posted with no luck, so I spent a couple hours playing around with it but I am totally stumped…unfortunately it seems the new code only partly works 😐
Results
gridview (works) – http://sustainableelements.ca/events/
venue (works) – http://sustainableelements.ca/venue/unnamed-venue-4/
single (sidebars still showing?) – http://sustainableelements.ca/event/new-event-test/
gridview categories (sidebars still showing?) – http://sustainableelements.ca/events/category/conference-networking/

The results you see above are without the second piece of code we worked on which conditionally restored sidebars to specific ECP views. I’ve tried everything I can think of: tinkering with the code, replacing the custom single.php and events.css files in the thesis folder, creating new post, playing with the ECP template selector combinations, emptying cache, switching off plugins, but nothing seems to change.

I’ve sent you new login info for the site if you are able to tinker around. I think if we can figure out why the code you have isnt working for all the views I can figure out how to reinstate specific sidebars where I want using the conditional code.
thanks a ton guys!
