    Where in the Event Calendar plugin directory do I insert the following code so primary menu will display above calendar pages:

    <div id=”nav”>
    <div class=”transparent”>
    <ul id=”menu-other-menu” class=”menu genesis-nav-menu menu-primary”>
    <li id=”menu-item-350″ class=”menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-350″>Announcements
    <li id=”menu-item-156″ class=”menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-156″>My d. Univeristy
    <li id=”menu-item-168″ class=”menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-168″>Training Request

    <li id=”menu-item-167″ class=”menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-167″>The Events Calendar
    <li class=”right search”>

    It worked!!! I put this code in the child theme functions.php file:
    //* Below is the code to modify the read more link when using the Content Limit on the Content Archives section on the Genesis Settings page:

    add_filter( ‘get_the_content_more_link’, ‘sp_read_more_link’ );
    function sp_read_more_link() {
    return ‘… Read More‘;
    }

    Thank you so much!

    I added this code to the child theme functions.php file, but nothing change. I don’t get it. Perplexed?

    add_filter( ‘the_content_more_link’, ‘modify_read_more_link’ );
    function modify_read_more_link() {
    return ‘Your Read More Link Text‘;
    }

    I am using the following child theme from StudioPress:
    http://my.studiopress.com/setup/more-themes/previous-versions/education-theme/

    When editing a WordPress Page from the StudioPress Child Theme, the choices for Templates as a Page Attributes are only three: 1) Default Template, 2) Archive, and 3) Blog.

    Currently, the default page layout includes top banner, the body, and two right side bars.

    I suppose I could change the global Genisis Page Layout to be a full page and, if possible, individully change the each Event Page to have both side bars. But currently, the Templates as a Page Attributes do not include the additional layout options.

    So how do I set the Single Event URLs to include the two right side bars by using the “Default (WP Theme) Page Template.” At the same time set the Multiple Events URL uses the “Default (Modern Tribe) Events Template.”

    In short, I would like the multiple event month to not have sidebars, and the single event to have the two right sidebars.

    It turns out that I prefer the Event Template set to target the Default (Modern Tribe) Events Template to view the month. The Default (WP Theme) Page Template on my site includes a primary and secondary right sidebar so it’s too crowded to fit the month in the page body. Very tight!

    Next question I will post in the forum is “How do I set the single event URL to use the Default (WP Theme) Page Template while the while the multiple events URL use the Default (Modern Tribe) Events Template?”

    Currently the Event Template is set to the Default (Modern Tribe) Events Template to view the month. This works!

    What does not work is setting the Default (WP Theme) Page Template to view the month.

    Yes, I am saying that the month view is not displaying when anyone visits the page even though it is set to default. This occurs across all browsers, from my home and work. I clear the local browser cache and I clear the WordPress cache with the plugin WP Super Cache.

    Can you try clearing the cache in your browser and try in another browser and see if it works in any of them.

    I’ve made some changes to the following problem pages since my initial correspondence:
    http://ddotsites.com/ddotuniversity/events/

    As an alternative, I’ve selected the Default *Events* Template which displayed a transparent calendar. I took some time to identify the CSS class and file names. I found them! I added a background: #f9f9f9 layer behind the calendar. The transparency is gone at the top of the page. The blue band no longer is visible through the calendar table cells. Consequently, I answered my second question. I figured out how to put a white layer (wrapper) behind the calendar so that the blue background does not show through? That is what you are currently seeing.

    However, If I select the Default *Page* Template (i.e., the template that controls the appearance of the calendar content) as the Event Template, then the main page body will not display month calendar inside the page.
