Looks like we cross posted. I kept thinking maybe it was a category but couldn’t find it there either. Thanks for the explanation. Good to know.

Good News! I went over to the Cobalt Apps forum and started searching around. I found some CSS to fix the problem!

.tribe-filter-live #ez-feature-top-container-wrap {
display: none;
} 

One person there said, “The Events Calendar is most likely using front-page.php to render the page. See if there is a way to create a version of a single.php for the event calendar.” Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

Anyway, I’m happy the CSS worked!

Thanks for heading me in the right direction.

Oh man, I am having to think way too hard 🙂 But there has to be some sort of logic here.

You are correct that it is a Catalyst (Cobalt Apps) theme builder. I’m going to contact them and see if they can give any insight to it. The EZ Feature top widget is an integral part of the theme builder. The Feature Top can be set with one, two, or three widgets in it. I’m fairly sure about those numbers, but it can definitely have more than one. I just have it set for one so I can have a full-screen slider in it.

I’m also wondering what it is that the Events Calendar goes on. Seems like it is a page, but not in my list of pages. Since the problem is only happening on the page where the Events Calendar is it makes me wonder what exactly it is. Hope that made sense.

Thanks so much for helping me with this! Much appreciated.

Just noticed and maybe I didn’t realize it before. But I just left a response and it doesn’t show up here. Maybe you have to approve it or something. But I want to make sure you got it. So this is kind of testing that too 🙂

No problem with the questions. They can only help!

I don’t think it is really a “preferred” plugin although I did find out about it from a forum post there. The theme does not require that particular slider…in fact I’ve used other type sliders there (on different sites).

Yes, it is a “sidebar widget” that becomes available. But now I just discovered something I should have noticed before. My shortcode is NOT in the slider sidebar widget but in the EZ Feature Top widget. The same parameters apply though about when it is activated.

Now, this is a little interesting. I tried the Widget Logic plugin and put is_home() as the widget logic. Now the slider still shows up only on the home page but now an empty EZ Feature Top #1 widget shows up on the events page. http://21a.a0a.myftpupload.com/events/ I left it that way so you can see it.

So sorry about being mistaken about where I put the darn code!

Well, here’s the thing with that. In 2014 it doesn’t show up on the events page. But, in 2014 I don’t know how I would set the slider to show up on the home page. I’m using a shortcode in a widget for the homepage slider now.

I’m using the Dynamik theme for this site. There is a setting there to include the slider on the home page and when activated a widget becomes available for it to place any code.

Thanks Barry. The plugin is not part of the theme. It is the Meta Slider Pro https://www.metaslider.com/ I’ve used the slider a few times but never combined with the Events Calendar.
