Hi Ken,

There are probably some things our plugin is doing to not work well with the breadcrumbs plugin but you’re going to have to work it out on your own. We’ve got plans to change the way we do some of the calendar views and templating which I think will help with these types of conflicts in the future but right now the customization is too complex to help with.

However, and related to your other question about the title on specific dates, this may point you in the right direction to fix the breadcrumbs. If you are using the “Default Events Template” yes you can modify ecp-page-template.php and conditionally set the title depending on what view you are in. Here is an example:


if(tribe_is_month()) {
echo 'Calendar Grid';
} else if(tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && !is_single()) {
echo 'Event List';
} else if(tribe_is_event() && !tribe_is_day() && is_single()) {
echo 'Single Event';
} else if(tribe_is_day()) {
echo 'Single Day';
} else {
the_title();
}


You’re basically going to want to use the same thing if you are instead using the “Default Page Template” and/or for conditionally setting your breadcrumb trail.

I hope this helps,
Jonah

Hey Nicholas, categories are taxonomy terms in our plugin so you can use the WordPress get_terms function to pull all the categories like so:

$terms = get_terms("tribe_events_cat");
$count = count($terms);
if ( $count > 0 ){
echo "";
foreach ( $terms as $term ) {
echo "slug . "'>" . $term->name . "";

}
echo "";
}

That should point you in the right direction but let me know if you have any other questions on this.

Hey Nikolasa,

It looks like your theme wrappers are just not being included for the plugin. Two options:

1. Override the ecp-page-template.php (and I think you’ll want to do the same for ecp-single-template.php) by making a duplicate copy of the files found in /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views. And add your theme specific wrappers (for example: ). This will get it so you won’t need to muck with the CSS too much because those theme specific wrappers already have the necessary CSS.

2. You can also do something similar but via the Settings > The Events Calendar page by adding these wrappers into the “Add HTML before calendar” and “Add HTML after calendar” fields.

Either way, you need those wrappers there to contain everything. Hopefully this get’s you going in the right direction but let me know if you run into any other issues.

Cheers,
– Jonah

@Kristel,

Regarding the first issue of the prev/next links not displaying on specific day lists, I’m not sure about this one… I’m going to need to bring in another dev to take a look.

On the second issue, you can style the links via CSS in your theme’s style.css file or create a duplicate copy of /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/resources/events.css and place in an ‘events’ folder in your theme and make whatever changes you want to style the links differently.

@ Lynne

As I mentioned above I’m going to have another dev step in to comment on the prev/next links not showing on specific day lists.

Regards,
Jonah

Hey Jamie,

Good ideas but as far as I know there is no method in WordPress for viewing a custom field specific archive without manually creating it. I.e. there is no archive-[customfield] or single-[customfield] in WordPress but some themes may incorporate some functionality similar to this.

The only way to do that I know of would be to create manual page templates for these types of pages…

If there are features you’d like incorporated into the plugin I would suggest adding them to out Feature Request thread: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/events-calendar-pro-feature-requests/

Thanks,
Jonah

Hi Tom, I last had you update to the stable 2.0.4 so if you’re still having problems after the update, let me know here.

Thanks,

Hi Andrea,

The “by Andrea Reed” bit is added by your theme so you’ll need to figure out how to change that in the theme.

To remove the “Updated” bit just make a duplicate copy of /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/single.php and place in an ‘events’ folder in your theme. Then find lines 48-49 and remove them.

I hope that helps,
Jonah

Hi Leonard, unfortunately the customization required for this is more than we can offer up in the support forum but I’ll tell you a lot of users have asked for this functionality and it will likely make it in in a future release. For now you’ll have to either hire someone to help you or try to hack it on your own. I’d suggest you request this feature in our feature requests thread: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/events-calendar-pro-feature-requests/

Hi jo, your theme has a very general CSS styling being applied to #sidebar a elements (any a tags in the sidebar). The styling is placing a 20px left padding on those elements so that’s why you’ve got the weird spacing. You should be less general with this declaration on line 456 of style.css to prevent the padding from being applied to event links and other links where you don’t need that padding.

[Jonah]

Hey Nikolasa, got a link I can take a look at to see what I’m working with?

Hey Ben, looks like there’s a tiny bug with the calendar widget where the title option does not show up right away. Try editing the widget and clicking on Save and a title box should appear after that. We’ll get this fixed in an upcoming version but this should work for now.

Regards,
Jonah

Hey Jamie,

No, a custom field itself cannot have it’s own page listing records that use that field or contain a certain value. But, couldn’t you setup additional pages with custom queries that check for those specific custom fields? Or, couldn’t you use additional taxonomies that would function similarly to venues and categories (specific pages for those taxonomy terms)?

It might help to get some examples of exactly what you’re trying to setup because it’s hard for me envision what you want to do.

Hey Stephan, you just need to add the code to display the featured image to the list template and it’s not that difficult. First make a duplicate copy of /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/list.php and place in an ‘events’ folder in your theme. This will let you make changes to it and keep them safe from updates. Next, simply paste in the following code:


if ( function_exists('has_post_thumbnail') && has_post_thumbnail() ) {
the_post_thumbnail();
}


…wherever you want the thumbnail to display. You can wrap it in a div and style it or if you want to get really fancy run it through TimThumb for some on the fly resizing and processing.

I hope that helps!

Hi Andrea,

I’m not sure what you mean by the Author, Date Posted and Date Updated tags? Where are these appearing and where do you want to remove them from?

Thanks,
Jonah

[Jonah]

Hi Michael,

I’m seeing the same thing on my end when using your code and you must have an unclosed tag or something like that which you’ll need to figure out on your own.

Good luck,
Jonah
