Hello Collin!

You can change the am/pm settings in the same place where you update the global WordPress time settings in Settings > General under the Time Format section (screenshot).

Here’s more info in the WordPress Codex that you may find helpful in formatting the time, including localization to a particular country.

Cheers!

Hello Rachel and welcome to the forums! I’m so glad to hear you’ve been loving the plugins so far and really appreciate the kind words. 🙂

Excellent questions. First off, the button in the widget. This is a good idea and can certainly be done, though it will take a little bit lifting for you. To make this happen:

• Make a copy of the widget template. It’s located at /wp-content/plugins/events-pro/views/widgets/modules/single-event.php. Phew!
• Make a new folder in your theme directory called tribe-events
• Make a new folder in that one called pro
• Make a new folder in that one called widgets
• Make (yet one more) in that one called modules
• Drop your copied single-event.php file in that last folder

Now that the template is in your theme folder, you can modify it to suit your needs. In this case, locate where you would like to add your button, add it, then save the file. That might look something like this:

<a href="<?php echo esc_url( tribe_get_event_link() ); ?>" rel="bookmark">Check it out!</a>

2. Same page: we would like to include the location (city) in the Event Title or right after.

Similar deal here. In that same file, look for this code:

[php]
<h2 class="entry-title summary">
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( tribe_get_event_link() ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
</h2>
[/php]

…and change it to something like this to get the city after the title:

[php]
<h2 class="entry-title summary">
<a href="<?php echo esc_url( tribe_get_event_link() ); ?>" rel="bookmark"><?php the_title(); ?> in <?php echo tribe_get_city() ?></a>
</h2>
[/php]

3. Change term Organizer to Facilitator
4. Change Tickets (wootickets) to Registeration

This article should help guide you for changing these words (and any others).

I hope this helps! We are fairly limited in how much support we can provide for customizations, but please feel free to let me know if you have any follow-up questions here and I’d be happy to help as best I can. 🙂

Cheers!

Hey there, Tan!

You’ll have to forgive me: my German proficiency is very limited but I will do the best that I can to help you out. 🙂

It sounds like (using Google Translate) that you are having an issue where the Licenses tab is not displaying for you in the Events settings.

This could be for a couple of reasons:

• Are you running the same plugin versions? Please check to make sure that both The Events Calendar and The Events Calendar PRO are both at version 3.10.1 and see if that makes a difference.
• Are you running a multisite WordPress installation? If so, you will not see the Licenses tab on a subsite, but will on a parent site. Here is more information on how licenses work on multisite networks.

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

Cheers!

Hi there, Paul! Welcome back to the forums. 🙂

I just tried visiting that link and get a “Page Not Found” when I did. Is that page still live and accessible or is there perhaps another link I can check out?

To get the ball rolling in the meantime, will you please try switching to a default WordPress theme (like Twenty Fifteen) to see if the layout is broken there as well? Just want to see if perhaps the stylesheet for the current theme is taking over the widget styles and causing any issues there. If the layout is still wonky in Twenty Fifteen, then there’s something else going on for sure.

Thanks and cheers!

Hello Danielle and thanks for reaching out! I’m stoked to hear you’re giving The Events Calendar a good look. 🙂

1) Will we be able to pull events from an .ics file? Would those events then be editable through the website?

Right now, there are two ways to import events and they unfortunately do not involve an .ics file:

• Using our CSV Importer. We have more information on that here.
• Using the WordPress Importer. The same sort of deal for importing default WordPress posts under Tools > Import from the WordPress dashboard.

2) Will the listings on other pages be able to show more than 12 events at a time or offer pagination?

Sure! The feed that displays events uses the same WordPress global setting for how many posts show in your site feed under General > Reading from the WordPress dashboard. You unfortunately cannot set that one a page-by-page basis (as it sounds like you might be looking to do), but you are certainly welcome to create a new page template that makes a new query for events posts and set that number to something specific. Here’s an article that walks through the steps for creating a new events query.

Great questions! Does this help answer them? Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions here and I’d be happy to help. 🙂

Cheers!

Hi Rocky Allen,

I would suggest looking into the custom recurring event patterns that are included in The Events Calendar PRO. For example, if your event is never on the weekends, create a pattern that excludes them and recurs weekly.

Since Si Support originally opened this thread and it pertains to a different topic, it would be great if you opened a new thread if you still have any other questions here about using recurring event patterns. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

Hi there, Catherine!

Good question. Here’s a different example that shows an alternate way to query events, including by specific taxonomy. Will that help?

Sorry the documentation wasn’t very helpful for you here. Do you have some ideas how we might improve that — for example, how about splicing off deprecated functions from current ones visually?

Cheers and thanks for the feedback!

Geoff

[Geoff]

Hello nmoutia!

Good question. Try using the tribe_get_single_ical_link() function in the template you’re working on. If you echo the function, it will output the link for the queried event.

Nice idea to add that to the email! I’d love to see that added to our feature request forum as well, if you have a moment. I can see how that would be super useful for others as well. 🙂

Cheers!
Geoff

Excellent question, Tess!

Right now, Community Events submits events to the same calendar as The Events Calendar–the difference is that visitors can submit events to the calendar without having to log into the back end of your site. Kinda like bringing the back end event publishing form to the front end of the site. 🙂

The calendar itself is a single calendar so all events will display in the same place. However, at the same time, the calendar generates unique URLs for things such as Categories. So, for example, you could theoretically categorize specific events and link directly to that category to display just those events, rather than all events.

Does that make sense and does that help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers!
Geoff

Nice work testing for conflicts! So glad that was a help and it looks like you did indeed uncover the conflict. 🙂

It looks like the Ultimate Social Icons and Share Plugin is trying to embed the social media icons in there. It probably is designed to look for any instance where there is a post excerpt and place social icons right after it. In this case, however, it seems that its code is conflicting with the calendar’s code in the particular instance.

The social icons plugin author is going to be the best to help here since they directly support that codebase and can isolate it from the calendar’s Month View. Please feel free to have them reach out to us if there’s anything we can do to help to make it easier.

In the meantime, there are other ways to add social media sharing that is more compatible with The Events Calendar and we cover those here in this article.

Sorry I don’t have a more concrete solution for you here, but I do hope that the social icons plugin author will be able to shed more light on what’s happening.

Thanks so much!

Hi Salina,

There is definitely something fishy happening here, but I can’t quite put my finger on it.

For example, here is how the Cart page looks on my test site in default conditions. Notice that it tells me the Cart is empty and gives me the option to Return to Shop.

And here is how it appears on your test site. Notice that it behaves more like a regular page, where Comments are enabled and the content area is blank.

The fact that we are seeing different things in default conditions makes me think that one of two things is happening:

• Our WooCommerce settings are different
• Our WooCommerce installations are different

Let’s check a few more things:

• Do you have any snippets in your test site’s functions.php file (or somewhere similar) that customize WooCommerce or WooCommerce Tickets? If so, please remove them and try again.
• Do you have a folder in your test site’s theme directory called woocommerce or tribe-events? If so, please remove them and try again.

If those don’t do the trick, then it would be great if you could do the following on your test site:

• Install a fresh copy of WooCommerce, downloaded from WordPress
• Install a fresh copy of WooCommerce Tickets 3.10, downloaded from this site (My Account > Downloads)
• Install a fresh copy of The Events Calendar 3.10.1, downloaded from WordPress

Sorry for the extra lifting here, but I just want to make sure that the plugins are all fully installed in the event that something didn’t fully upload or take the first time around.

Thanks again for all your help!

Geoff

My pleasure! Feel free to hit us up with a new thread if any other questions pop up and we’d be happy to help. 🙂

[Geoff]

Thanks for doing that!

Are you able to set up a test site? Maybe that would help us figure out where the conflict is coming from without disrupting your existing site. Some hosts allow you to install a fresh version of WordPress in a subdirectory of your current domain–if yours does that same, that would make it nice and easy.

Here are some tips if you are able to set that up:

• Don’t install anything except The Events Calendar WooCommerce and WooCommerce Tickets
• Please also stick to a default theme (like Twenty Fifteen)–again, there’s no need to install anything else just yet!
• Confirm that the formatting issue is gone

If the issue is there, please stop and send me a link so I can see it.

If the issue is gone in those conditions, then go ahead and install your X Theme Renew. Does the issue pop up? If so, stop right there and send me the link so I can see it from there.

If the issue is still gone, then repeat that same process, except for each plugin that is installed and active on the live site.

I’m hoping that this will help us identify exactly where the conflict is coming from. I’m not totally sure I can provide a solution from there, but it will at least point us in the direction for next steps.

Thanks for your help!

Hi there, SI Support!

Good question. Right now, events that span multiple days will indeed appear on each individual day rather than visually spanning those days. We’ve actually seen this idea come into our feature request forum, but it looks like it could use some more votes and it would be great if you added to it. 🙂

In the meantime, I’m afraid spanning multiple days visually is unavailable right out of the box. Sorry about that!

Does this help answer your question? Please let me know.

Cheers!
Geoff

[Geoff]

Awesome! I was hoping that would give us the calendar page. 🙂

Now I see what you mean with the formatting. It could be a conflict with the theme, or perhaps another installed plugin. Will you please follow these troubleshooting steps? That will help us find a conflict, if there is one.

Thanks and definitely keep me posted!

Geoff
