Sweet, let us know if there’s anything else we can help with.

Cheers,

Hi Torben,

Try looking in your Screen Options panel in the upper right corner when adding/editing an event and make sure “Featured Image” is checked. That or try adding this to your functions.php file:

add_theme_support( 'post-thumbnails', array( 'tribe_events' ) );

Let me know whether or not that helps.

Hi Sandro,

Your best bet is to just hide things with CSS in the admin. You can do that with one of these snippets:
http://css-tricks.com/snippets/wordpress/apply-custom-css-to-admin-area/ or http://wp-snippets.com/custom-admin-css/ – then just find the elements you want to hide and use display: none to hide them. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/ might also help in hiding the actual menu items.

I hope that helps!

Hi Neil,

Thanks for your thoughts and suggestions. If you have Gravity Forms you should be able to accomplish this pretty easily using this addon for GF: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/gravity-forms-custom-post-types/ – that will enable you to populate a form drop down with a custom post type.

Does that help?

Hi Bess,

Did you try changing the Events Template in Events > Settings > Template?

– Jonah

Hi Neil, sorry for not being specific enough.

1. The ‘events’ folder goes in your active theme directory.
2. No. Only if you create another page template within your theme. Read more here: http://codex.wordpress.org/Pages#Page_Templates
3. Hmmm, I would suggest taking a look at http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/ – it’s a very powerful custom fields plugin for WordPress that let’s you setup some very cool custom field inputs for events, pages, posts, etc. in a number of different ways. I’m not exactly sure what you need to do for each event but would a simple text input be enough so a link could be pasted in when adding an event that would be the link to the Event Registration page?

Hi Star,

Sure, one way you could do this is to modify the query in a category so that x amount of posts are shown per page (or all posts on one page). To do this you would just add this bit
of code to your theme’s functions.php file:

//show all events on the events list pages when viewing an event category
add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'show_all_events' );
function show_all_events( $query ) {
if ( $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'upcoming' || $query->query_vars['eventDisplay'] == 'past' && $query->query_vars['post_type'] == TribeEvents::POSTTYPE && !is_tax(TribeEvents::TAXONOMY) && empty( $query->query_vars['suppress_filters'] ) ) {
$query->set('posts_per_page', -1);
}
return $query;
}

Does that help?

Hi Michael,

No, I’m not sure but your the only one I’ve seen ask for this so far and it seems fairly low priority with everything else we’ve got going on. Plus if we changed it there’s likely going to be some people who like it ordered by date instead of by name.

Hi Catherine,

Try going into Events > Settings and unchecking the Google Maps option, saving, rechecking it and saving again. Then, go into the event you want the map to show on and make sure the “Show Google Map” option is checked.

Hi Mathew,

What sub menus are you talking about? Can you provide an example of what should be where?

Thanks,
Jonah

Hi Jason,

You could change the back link in single.php to a simple javascript back link so it goes back whatever the previous page was instead of back to the list. To do this you would make a copy of /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/list.php and place in an ‘events’ folder in your theme. Then find the back link on line 12 and modify the link with one of the following options: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/javascript/go-back-button/

I hope that helps!

Hi Michael,

Thanks for the feedback. I’ve logged #1 as a bug and we’ll get it fixed in a future release. For #2 you could easily change this by adding something like this to your theme’s functions.php file: https://gist.github.com/3542941 – you’ll just need to change the post_type to “tribe_venues” and change the query arguments.

I hope that helps!

Hi Krysia,

I would suggest deactivating all other plugins and try reverting your theme to Twenty Eleven to see if it’s something with your theme that’s overriding this setting. If it is in your theme you’ll need to dig through and figure out what it is. Good luck and let us know what you find!

Hi Neil,

You could simply add a PayPal or custom button linking to PayPal to your single event pages… The single event template is in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/single.php – just make a copy and place in an ‘events’ folder to make changes. You could dynamically set the cost with echo tribe_get_cost();

Does that help?

Hi Michael,

The easiest way to do this is to use something like http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/admin-menu-editor/ or http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/ to hide the menu item. Does that help?

Cheers,
