No problem! Best of luck with your project 🙂

Hey Preben,

Just to be clear, in your initial post you mention that get_sidebar() does actually work in getting the sidebars to show up, as Geoff mentioned in your original forum post.

If you read through his directions in the original topic, do the sidebars show up fine, but just not in the exact column you want them in?

If so, please share the modified version of the single-event.php file in your theme’s /tribe-events directory – past your whole, un-edited version of the file into a Gist at http://gist.github.com and share a link to that Gist.

Thanks,
George

Thanks John! Best of luck with your project 🙂

Hi Joe,

Do you have another version of that “MAN’S Breakfast” post in your “Trash”? You can find this in the admin.

If so, does “Permanently Deleting” that trashed version and then heading to Settings > Permalinks in your admin and then clicking “Save Changes” (without actually making any changes*) make any difference for that event?

Let us know – thanks for your patience with us as we work on this issue, it’s some odd behavior so we’re trying to nail down the source and extent of the problem.

Thanks!

*This little “Save Changes” trick on the Permalinks settings page, without making any actual changes, still just causes the permalinks on your site to refresh, which may be helpful here. It’s a little “hack” or “trick” that often fixes many URL-related issues.

Hey Mason,

While there is not a shortcode for displaying events for an organizer or trainer beneath their page, you can do this by using the tribe_get_events() function – read more about that here if you’re not familiar with it → https://theeventscalendar.com/function/tribe_get_events/

As for changing the Organizer labels, check out our knowledgebase article here on how to do this → https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/relabeling-the-venue-organizer-sections-in-event-meta/

Best of luck with all your customizations Mason!

No problem Andrew! Hope it helps.

Best of luck with your project, cheers!

Hey TK,

When I went to that page, it said “No saved venue exists.” → https://cloudup.com/cmPtV8T8jfH

So, have you added venues on your site yet? And specific Tribe Events Calendar venues, of the Venues post type?

If not, they will not show up there and will have to be manually entered.

However, if venues are added on the site already, then when a user gets to this page, they will show up from a searchable dropdown menu in the same field where on your site it says “No saved venue exists.” See an example of this on the Community Submission page for our demo site, WP Shindig → https://cloudup.com/cxAjX3nex6f

A user can search for their venue there to see if it’s already added before typing their entire venue data.

If this functionality is not sufficient for your needs, or you’re looking to modify this functionality or hook up the saved venues to some data other than the built-in Venues post type, you will unfortunately have to take the reins on those customizations.

Let me know if I’m addressing your questions accurately here or if I’m still missing something – if I am, I’m sorry!

Thanks,
George

Hey Seth,

Hm, this actually appears to be the result of a semi-“broken” layout because of the added HTML you’ve added before the Tribe Events content. You can see the way things look by default by temporarily adding the following CSS to the bottom of your theme’s style.css file:

.tribe-events-before-html {
    display: inline-block;
    clear: both;
    width: 100%;
}

That looks like this, for example → https://cloudup.com/cVNM1TQR5rI

So, what I mean about things being semi-“broken” is that the title being brought up on the right side is not the result of targeted styling – it’s the result of the black bar with categories you’ve added not taking up 100% of the page width, and the title being sucked up into that right-side gap to try and fill the space.

Do you know what I mean here? The implications of all this are that I tried to style your title accordingly, and bring up to the right side with some proper targeted CSS, and it’s quite difficult (for me to do quickly, anyways).

The closest I was able to get was to have things look like this → https://cloudup.com/cel3UbE_SCr

To do that, I used the following CSS – try adding it at the bottom of your theme’s style.css file:

.single-tribe_events h2.tribe-events-single-event-title {
    margin: -2em 0 0;
    padding: 0 0 0 72%;
}

Not too bad 🙂 But probably not 100% what you want here, and I haven’t tested it with longer event titles, etc.

Even though this isn’t perfect, I think it would be a great starting point for you to take the reins from here, and to play around with the styles a bit. I’d recommend using a tool like Firebug if you use FireFox, or the Developer Tools for either Safari or Chrome to help your customization process – they’re all free and come with an awesome “Inspector” tool that lets you zoom right to the specific code you’d need to tweak for a specific element on the page. Very helpful.

I hope this all helps Seth! Let us know.

Cheers,
George

Alright, thanks for specific that Max. I started working on this a bit but it’s actually a bit more complex than it might seem – there are numerous ways to go about setting up restrictions like this, but the most straightforward way I can think of would be to extend the jQuery UI Datepicker’s API on the Community Events submission page, and then watch for when the date is set for either field – run a callback function when this change happens.

Then you can just basically make this function check for the range between the selected dates, and either reset the dates so that it’s valid or print an error to the user so that they know about the limit.

You can learn about the jQuery UI Datepicker API here → http://api.jqueryui.com/datepicker/

I hope this information, though not code-specific, helps Max. If you’re interested in hiring a developer to help you out, you can email us at [email protected] for a list of developers we often recommend to folks.

Cheers,

Hey @handdrawnpixels,

How are you generating your custom class? Can you paste your modified version of the /views/pro/widgets/modules/single-event.php file into a Gist at http://gist.github.com and share a link back to that Gist here?

We can’t support custom code like this, but I’ll try to at least take a quick look and see if anything is obviously wrong. You should basically be looking for the category of the specific event, and generating a different class for each category. Are you doing this?

[George]

Thanks for that link @Photodb – I’m not quite sure why your site would need this sort of change so often, but if it helps, I’m glad that there’s at least a temporary solution like this.

Best of luck with your site!

Hey Kavi,

Sorry to disappoint you about the seating chart features! Definitely make your voice heard and share your feature ideas about this on our official UserVoice page here → http://tribe.uservoice.com/forums/195723-feature-ideas

Other folks can vote that idea up if they like it and want it too, and if a feature idea gets enough votes or just a lot of attention in general, we often roll some of these features into the codebase.

Cheers!
George

Hey Luciane,

I’m not 100% certain what you mean by your question, but I’ll do my best to address your concerns here:

If you want users to be able to log in to your website at the /wp-admin URL, and from within your admin be able to go to the “Events” tab on the left side and add new events from within your admin, then they need to be full WordPress users with at least “Author” permissions.

If you’re curious about user permissions, this article has a wonderful breakdown of the default user roles → https://en.support.wordpress.com/user-roles/

Users created this way will be able to edit their own passwords and such.

If you do not want this, and only want users to submit events from the front-end, then one option is to have users register on your site but set them at the lowest admin role, “Subscriber”. This will give them an account on your site and the ability to edit their own password and such, but not let them submit events anywhere other than the /events/community/add page on the front-end of your site.

Does that information help? I hope so – if so, check out the information on creating users like this in my post above your most recent one, for more information on how to get users to actually register on their own at a URL like {your-site-name.com}/wp-login.php?action=register

Cheers,
George

Hey Iago,

I’m sorry you feel our support isn’t very broad. We simply do not have the resources to write out custom features and code for each user, but hopefully the information I shared with you can help you get started, or help you find a developer or something and speed up the process of having your customizations made.

As for your questions about icons: are you using a plugin to add the social share icons? Or custom code? If a plugin, can you share a link to this plugin online?

If custom code, can you copy it all, unedited, into Gists at http://gist.github.com and share links to those Gists?

We’ll take a look at your specific social share icons setup and see what’s going on.

Thanks,
George
