Hi Sky,

Thanks for the recommendations. I did all the above actions on both events. Both events had the boxes for “Show on Google Maps” and “Show on Google Maps Link”. I opened the venues and clicked the show lat/long box for both. The fields didn’t populate, so I unclicked, saved, reclicked, and neither populated. But I updated the venues anyway, and now they show on the map listing!

So… problem solved, but reasons are unclear why, since the lat/long boxes aren’t filled in.

Is there any way to make all my venues have the lat/long clicked, to ensure there aren’t other community submitted events that aren’t being shown in the map view?

OK, thanks Barry — much appreciated.

OK, Barry — thanks for this response. However, I’m no developer, just an ‘advanced user’/designer, so some of this pure jargonese to my limited understanding. 😀 A more-experienced associate of mine named Jarrod said it was helpful and attempted to assist in getting this operational, but so far we’re not getting filtered results yet with Organizer being our first effort to add as a custom filter.

While digging around further for more help from Modern Tribe, I went over (once again) all of the features/functions of TEC more thoroughly within the admin area of WordPress. When I saw: Events » Events Add-Ons » Filter Bar . . . it appears to be very much like what Cy (the client) is seeking. Is that correct? And if so, should he go ahead and purchase/download it? And also, if so, why wasn’t it suggested initially in this support request thread?

Thanks in advance for sticking with me on this issue, and I look forward to some news that gets us a search/filter that adds 3 custom criteria!

OK, here is what is & was in place between a buddy of mine and myself looking this over last week — I’ve not changed anything:

add_filter( ‘tribe-events-bar-filters’, ‘arh_setup_my_field_in_bar’, 1, 1 );
function arh_setup_my_field_in_bar( $filters ) {
$filters[‘organizer’] = array(
‘name’ => ‘tribe-bar-organizer’,
‘caption’ => ‘Organizer’,
‘html’ => ‘<input type=”text” name=”tribe-bar-organizer” id=”tribe-bar-organizer” placeholder=”Organizer Name”>’
);

return $filters;
}

add_filter( ‘tribe_events_pre_get_posts’, ‘arh_setup_my_bar_field_in_query’, 10, 1 );
function arh_setup_my_bar_field_in_query( $query ){
if ( !empty( $_REQUEST[‘tribe-bar-organizer’] ) ) {
$query->set(‘tribe_is_event_organizer’, $_REQUEST[‘tribe-bar-organizer’]);
}

return $query;
}

So the additional code you suggested from that Help doc seems to be in order… or no?

Thanks for sticking with us on this!

Hey, I know you! 😀

I’ll take a look and see if this is the ticket… thanks Trisha!

Back in a bit,

Hi Barry,

Thanks man, that helps a lot. I feel embarrassed the fix was that easy… I should have found it myself

[cyrilsack]

sure thing. Take a look at this event: https://adventureracehub.com/race/bend-ar-30-hour-adventure-race/
the individual event displays on the Google Map widget, but when you look at the overall calendar in Map view, it’s nowhere to be found. Instead, you’ve got to switch to list or month view to find it: https://adventureracehub.com/adventureracescalendar/

[cyrilsack]

alright, I took a shot at it through the existing database manager in my cPanel. If I did it correctly (big IF), it’s saying there are 0 results, which clearly isn’t the case as we know there are events not populating on the map. Can you take a look at the attached file and see if you spot anything wrong?

What’s weird is this location (Bend, OR), has shown on the map before, and I’ve even gone so far to include a specific street address and Lat/Long to make sure the map knows precisely where it is.

Hi Barry, thanks for the suggestion. I’m moderately familiar with SQL, so the query you’ve provided above isn’t strange to me. However, I’m totally ignorant as how to query against Events Calendar. Can you provide any guidance on how to setup the necessary framework to even do the query? Are you using SQL workbench or something similar to run the query? How do you setup access to the database?

[cyrilsack]

thanks Geoff! I’ve got the single-event.php file in the tribe-events subfolder, but it still doesn’t seem to change the display on site.

[cyrilsack]

I eliminated that plugin, and have slowly started re-activiating all other plugins on the site, but I’m still getting the same issue, and others are reporting the same thing. When they click on “next events” at the bottom of the page, it doesn’t take to the next events, just back to the top of the page. On top of that, the map stays gray. Any other ideas why this is happening?

[cyrilsack]

yeah, that’s the solution I’ve got in place now. Have you heard of anything more hands-off-the-wheel, using an extractor plugin and an API to publish regularly to the database?

thanks, but any idea why my Google Map still isn’t displaying correctly? I double checked the options in General and Display settings, and the Map option is checked.
