Did you check the option in the widget to show the location? http://cl.ly/252r0I262M1C2U0q1y2w

Hey Nathan, glad to hear you figured it out. Let us know if there’s anything else we can help out with.

Hi Dawn, we’ve got examples of a bunch of different custom queries, including querying event categories, right here: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/documentation/the-events-calendar-template-tags-general-functions/#functiontribe_get_events

What your wanting to do is going to require more customization than we can help you out with in the forum but to give you some idea, I think what you’ll want to do is either pass taxonomy (the plugin uses taxonomy terms for categories) arguments to the URL query and refresh the page or create custom pages with queries for these categories that you are taken to when clicking on the links in the sidebar.

I hope that helps,
Jonah

Hey Andrea, who are you hosting with? That would be the first thing I’d take a look at. I know from experience that GoDaddy is usually super slow. So if you’ve got them you might want to consider switching web hosts. Another thing you should take a look at is how much memory is allocated for your site. You can check with your web host to find out and/or just try increasing it yourself: http://www.dailyblogging.org/wordpress/increase-wordpress-memory-limit/

Other things to take a look at are:

1. Other plugins.
2. Your theme and how clean/optimized the code is.
3. Consider using a caching plugin to help boost performance overall – I almost exclusively use this one: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/w3-total-cache/
4. This article goes over a few other things you can look at: http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Optimization

I doubt it’s anything with the plugin itself because it’s really gone through the wringer to make sure it’s optimized for speed and scalability.

I hope this helps and I hope you get the speed issues worked out.

Hey Carlos,

It’s possible but I don’t know of any certified solution for this. What I would try is using the Feed WordPress plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedwordpress/ – it let’s you specify as many feeds as you want to import and gives you control over what happens with the posts that are imported. Thats probably your best bet.

Hey Dylan, have you tried disabling other plugins to see if this helps? Often times if too many plugins are also registering menu items, some might end up being hidden… Or, are you registering any other custom post types? This can bring up the same problem.

Let me know if that helps and I’ll try to offer up some suggestions of what to do from there to avoid this conflict.

[Jonah]

Hey Jeff,

It would help to see some samples of code you’re working with trying to modify these things. http://pastebin.com is a good place to paste code and share a link here.

[Jonah]

Glad you figured it out Wes, let us know if there’s anything else we can do.

Hey Nathan,

That’s a strange problem indeed and not one that I’ve encountered with the plugin. Can you email me WP admin access to jonah [at] tri [dot] be so I can take a look? Please reference this thread so I know what it’s for. Is it ok if I test it out a bit too? I’ll delete whatever I create.

[Jonah]

Hey Ben, you could actually accomplish this right now by using some sort of custom field setup and overriding the default calendar/list view to conditionally detect your custom field link and if it exists, use that link instead of the event detail (single view) link.

I hope that helps,
Jonah

[Jonah]

Glad to hear it!

[Jonah]

Hey Leonard, do you have a link we can take a look at?

[Jonah]

Hi Sheila,

Glad to hear the update sorted this out for you!

[Jonah]

Hey Michael,

Sounds like an issue with your setup. You should be able to empty your trash and until you do WordPress will automatically append incremental digits to posts that have the same slug. There might be a plugin that is preventing you from emptying your trash or maybe even a theme conflict. I would suggest deactivating plugins and/or switching themes first to see if this addresses your issue.

I hope that helps,
Jonah

Hey Michael,

First off I just wanted to point out that you probably don’t want to use is_post_type anymore. It’s deprecated – see: http://codex.wordpress.org/Conditional_Tags#A_Post_Type

Now, to address the issue at hand… This does appear to be a problem – I’m seeing the same thing with my recurring events, the links are all linking to the one event. I’m not sure if this is by design or if it’s an issue…

I’m going to need to have another dev jump in and take a look. We’ll be in touch.

Regards,
Jonah
