Hi Dinos and welcome to the forums! I hope you’ve been enjoying PRO so far and appreciate your support. 🙂

Interesting question! I honestly haven’t seen a good example where multiple categories are displayed in a comparative fashion on the same page. I think the closest we have to a “built-in” solution for this is our Filter Bar add-on, which allows visitors to filter events by multiple categories and see them on the same page. Maybe that’s worth checking out?

Otherwise, I think you’d be looking at a fairly hefty customization, judging by the sounds of it. There’s also the possibility of posting an idea to our feature request forum so we can see review it for something to be considered as a future feature enhancement.

Sorry I don’t have more of a concrete solution for you, but does this at least help answer your question? Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions here and I’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi platformband welcome to the forums! Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the trouble here with the ticket editing process.

That’s really odd! In fact, I also noticed that the price of the event does not appear at the top of the single-event view as well. For example, the cost of the ticket should display next beneath the event title on this one.

I do see a couple of JS errors in the console that should be removed for sure:

jQuery is not defined: jquery.easing.1.3.js:39
jQuery is not defined: jquery.bxslider.js:1315

I’d start by cleaning those up just in case that is throwing anything off.

Secondly, have you made any customizations to the calendar? You can check by opening your theme directory and looking for a folder called tribe_events. If that’s in there, try removing it to see if that makes a difference.

Lastly, do you use any custom functions in your theme’s functions.php file that might affect the calendar? Just want to make sure since we recently deprecated some functions and I’m hoping those aren’t the cause.

Let’s start there and see what we find.

Cheers!

Hi Glenn,

It looks like the Community Events is using the single page footer in this case–at least that that’s I see on the body class when I view the page source.

Removing the footer from there might be as easy as wrapping a conditional statement around the get_footer() function in the template using tribe_is_community_edit_event_page() as the conditional test.

I wish there was a shortcode for the form–that’s actually a really interesting idea and I’m surprised we haven’t heard that requested more often. In fact, it has been suggested on our feature request forum and could use some more votes, if you wouldn’t mind adding yours to the mix.

In the meantime, I think contacting the theme author is the best route–and, of course, please let me know of there is something we can do on our end to make the integration easier and I’d be happy to check that out.

Thanks,
Geoff

Hi Soren and welcome to the forums!

Good question. I know it looks like there is one marker when there are two events at the same location in the same Map View, but there are actually multiple pins stacked on top of one another. So, where you see one, there could theoretically be an infinite number.

Unfortunately, I don’t have a workaround for this–but it would be great if you could add this to our feature request forum so we can check it out. I can see how that could get annoying and having a built-in enhancement would help.

Sorry I don’t have a concrete solution for you here, but does this at least help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers,

Hi David! Thanks for getting in touch. 🙂

Sounds like you might be looking at a theme conflict. For example, does the same thing happen when you switch to a default WordPress theme, like Twenty Fifteen?

If you’re having problems there and you haven’t purchased a premium license, I would suggest heading over to our WordPress.org forum so we can help you out. However, if we’re looking at a theme conflict, the best route might be to go directly to the theme author.

Cheers!
Geoff

Nice work finding the conflict!

I wonder if the IssueM plugin isn’t recognizing custom post types, which is what events posts are. If the plugin author is able to provide a method for including the tribe_events post type, then I bet that would help resolve things.

Let me know if there’s something we can do on our end to help make the integration any smoother and I’d be happy to look into it for you!

Sure! That file is in your site’s plugin directory–meaning you will need access to the files. This post in the WordPress Codex dives into how to do that a little deeper.

Once you are able to access your site’s files, you can navigate to the template using this path from the main folder:

/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/widgets/list-view.php

Then you can follow the rest of the directions from there. 🙂

Hey Giles and welcome to the forums! Thanks for reaching out and sorry for the trouble here.

It looks like the calendar is triggering a 404 error (Page Not Found). We have a tutorial that helps troubleshoot 404 errors on the calendar. Will you please give the steps outlined in there a shot and let me know if you see a difference?

Let’s start there and see what we find. 🙂

Thanks!

Hi Abha and welcome to the forums! I hope you’ve been enjoying The Events Calendar PRO so far–thanks a ton for your support. 🙂

Sorry for the trouble here. I just tried accessing a tags archive and creating a tag cloud on my local test site (using Twenty Fifteen as the theme) and Events and Posts seem to be properly feeding to both places together.

I see you had tried this:

Deactivated all other plugins? Yes
Switched to a default theme? Yes

Did you happen to notice any difference when you were also working in those default conditions? How about when deactivating all other plugins and switching to a default theme (like Twenty Fifteen) at the same time? Do you notice a difference then?

The reason I ask is just to make sure there isn’t a conflict with your current theme or one of the other installed plugins, which seems likely to be the case if the Events and Posts are feeding together on my test site but not yours.

Let’s start there and see what we find.

Cheers!

Hey Katie and welcome to the forums! I hope you’ve been enjoying The Events Calendar + EDD Tickets so far. Thanks for your support. 🙂

Good questions. Let’s see if we can hit these one at a time.

I would like to be able to have a button on the sidebar widget that takes you to the calendar itself in addition to the listings which take you to their event page.

I think the best way to do this would be a template override. You can find more on this in our Themer’s Guide, but it basically boils down to this:

• Make a copy of the list-widget.php template. It is located at /plugins/the-events-calendar/views/widgets/list-widget.php.
• Make a new folder in your theme directory called tribe-events.
• Make a new folder in that one called widgets.
• Drop the copied list-widget.php file in that last folder.

Now that the template is in your theme, it can be modified to suit your needs. In this case, add the button to wherever you would like it to appear in the template and target it to link to the calendar slug (/events).

Also, as we have it, there is a lot of unused space within the event listing.

This can certainly happen when there are conflicts with the theme styles. Using the same sort of technique in the last question, go ahead and create a new CSS file called tribe-events.css and drop it in the tribe-events folder you created previously.

You can add this to that file to remove some of that extra spacing:

.tribe-mini-calendar-list-wrapper .location {
margin: 0;
padding-top: 0;
}

And finally, is there a way to change the colors on the calendar itself and within the widget? Other than the categories of course.

Absolutely. You can use the same CSS file we just created in the last step to change an elements you would like in the calendar. I’d suggest heading over to this tutorial for an overview of how to use DevTools to located the styles you want to modify and then use those in the CSS file.

Does this help get you started? Please let me know. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi Glenn and welcome to the forums!

Sorry for the trouble here. That’s certainly an odd issue and I see what you mean.

I see you noted having tried:

Deactivated all other plugins? Yes
Switched to a default theme? Yes

Did you notice any difference in those conditions? How about when you deactivated all other plugins and switched to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Fifteen) at the same time? Do you see any difference there?

I honestly haven’t seen this sort of issue come up in the past and am suspicious that we’re looking at either a theme or plugin conflict. Let’s start here and see what we find.

Thanks,
Geoff
