My pleasure!

Yes, that is indeed something that has been suggested in our feature request forum and that we’ve moved to under review now that iCal Importer has been released–that just came out in the last month, so now we can start considering new features for it. 🙂

Thanks again for reaching out! I’ll go ahead and close this thread but do please feel free to hit us back up if any other questions pop up and we’d be happy to help. And, of course, please don’t hesitate to email us back with your receipt for a refund within 30 days if the plugin doesn’t work out for some reason 🙂

Cheers!

Quick question: if you publish a normal WordPress post to your site, does it display on the front page?

If not, then I think we’re looking at a global setting in WordPress rather than something directly in The Events Calendar and testing this will help us narrow that down.

Thanks!

Hi Jeff,

No worries at all–I actually really appreciate your effort for full clarity and apologize if I haven’t been fully clear to this point!

iCal Importer was not designed for calendar applications to pull events into on a sync, automated basis. However, it is a happy by-product for this calendar applications that do recurring checks since there is an iCal URL handy to draw from.

In other words, the site will not push events, but its is possible for applications to request it.

I would suggest trying it out. If it doesn’t support the functionality your looking for fully, we’ll give you no hassle for returning it.

Cheers!

My apologies there! This should work instead:

 <div class="list-date">
<span class="list-dayname"><?php echo apply_filters( 'tribe-mini_helper_tribe_events_ajax_list_dayname', tribe_get_start_date( $id, false, 'D', false ), $mini_cal_event_atts['class'] ); ?></span>
<span class="list-daynumber"><?php echo apply_filters( 'tribe-mini_helper_tribe_events_ajax_list_daynumber', tribe_get_start_date( $id, false, 'd', false ), $mini_cal_event_atts['class'] ); ?></span>
</div>

Sorry for the confusion! I just used this on my own test site and got the correct start date for current events that start on an earlier date. 🙂

Cheers!

Thanks for following up, Audrey and sorry for the continued trouble!

Would it be possible to paste your system information here as a private reply? You can find this under Settings > Help at the bottom of the screen. I just want to make sure there isn’t something I can spot right of the bat that would be a red flag.

Thanks!
Geoff

Hey @explorer–nice to see you again and hope all is well. 🙂

Yes, it should be possible to show the start date of the event rather than the current date for ongoing events that are currently taking place.

There is this code in the pro/widgets/modules/single-event.php file:

<div class="list-date">
<span class="list-dayname"><?php echo apply_filters( 'tribe-mini_helper_tribe_events_ajax_list_dayname', date_i18n( 'D', $postDate ), $postDate, $mini_cal_event_atts['class'] ); ?></span>
<span class="list-daynumber"><?php echo apply_filters( 'tribe-mini_helper_tribe_events_ajax_list_daynumber', date_i18n( 'd', $postDate ), $postDate, $mini_cal_event_atts['class'] ); ?></span>
</div>

You override that template (more on that in our Themer’s Guide) and change the $postDate variables to $start_date and that should give you the date you’re looking for.

Let me know if that helps do the trick!

There is no trial version, but we do offer a full refund on all purchases within 30 days of receipt. That would definitely give you a good amount of time to test drive and see if that feature will fit the bill. Sorry, I totally should have mentioned that at the front of this thread because you would totally benefit from it. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi @palomaraudubon,

Oh geez, my apologies for the mixup here! We definitely try to send a reminder notice for renewals via email but it looks like our wires got crossed in this case. I’m really sorry about that.

You can renew the license right here on this site by logging and heading to My Account > Licenses. I’ll send you a coupon in a separate reply to make it easier. 🙂

My apologies again!

Geoff

Hey Audrey!

Yes, @Merijn is absolutely right–if you have multiple copies of jQuery enqueued, then there will be a conflict since the navigation buttons rely on javascript.

Please do give his suggestion a shot and let us know if that does the trick.

Cheers!
Geoff

[Geoff]

Yes, as long as the application reading the iCal feed URL supports constant checking–otherwise, the URL itself wouldn’t be pushing that information along but will happily provide it if requested.

[Geoff]

Thanks for following up, Massimo!

It looks like the map is displaying in the current conditions (Twenty Thirteen theme):

http://deco.graph-iq.co.uk/concerts/another-concert/

Do you see the same thing?

If so, that’s a great start because it tells us that we’re looking at a theme conflict and can start narrowing it from there.

Thanks for hanging in here with me while we work on this together. 🙂

Geoff

[Geoff]

My pleasure and thanks a ton for your patience while we looked at this together–it was certainly a head scratcher!

[Geoff]

Thanks for following up, @Tracey!

Do you have the option to display events on the homepage enabled in Events > Settings (screenshot)?

Also, is your homepage set up to show posts? The reason I ask is that there is a “Home” menu item in the navigation that points here instead:

http://www.kingdomvision.co.uk/contents/

…but is called “Home” in the page title. I wonder if there might be some conflict there. It would be worth heading to Settings > Reading from the WordPress dashboard and checking that your front page is set to display your latest posts (screenshot).

Thanks!
Geoff

I think I found something!

Here’s the source code for the map on the venue page:

<div id="tribe-events-gmap-<span class=&quot;dms_upd&quot;>An error occurred while updating %1$s: <strong>%2$s</strong></span>" style="height: 200px; width: 100%"></div>

Notice that span class within the ID? It seems as though DMS is injecting that in there, which breaks the HTML structure for the map.

I’m honestly not sure how DMS is doing it, but I’m afraid that would be best answered by them. Of course, we’d be happy to help if they have any questions for us on our end, but I think this is about as far as we can take it from here.

Sorry I don’t have a solid solution for you, but I do hope this helps shed light on the issue and what’s happening.

Thanks,
Geoff
