Hi Stefan:

Can you confirm you are asking about the Community Events : Add Page? Where users can add their own events to a site. Is this correct?

All the styling for the form is based of your website’s theme. I would suggest looking into your Theme’s stylesheet and see how input elements are treated. To show a border you will need to have :

border: 1px solid #ccc;

or similar.

Thank you,

– Matthew

Hi Stefan:

In this case you want to modify the single-event.php  file in the first location.

/wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/single-event.php

The second file you specified is the template for how events are displayed when you are using the list view for the Calendar.

Please let me know if you have any other issues modifying the before content.

– Matthew

[matthewdenton]

Yes, please contact your theme developer they should be able to review your site and identify which changes need to be made. If needed you or your theme developer can reference our Themer’s Guide for more details on our plugin.

Hi Stefan!

The “Additional Fields” functionality was designed as a way for site owners to modify Events with custom fields that would be displayed without the need to modify templates. It was an attempt on our end to minimize users having to perform coding changes to add custom properties.

I could see the potential for these fields to drive the Event Filters and I would highly suggest you speak up in our User Voice for this feature. We actively review features requested and as possible pull them into our release plans.

Please let me know if you have further questions on “Additional Fields” or other functionality.

Thanks again,

– Matthew

Hi, Thanks for reaching out to us with your question!

The before and after content is rendered onto the page from the use of the template functions tribe_events_before_html and tribe_events_after_html. These functions get called as part of the template /views/default-template.php.

To change where the content is rendered you will have to update the templates and move the tribe_events_before_html function call into the /views/single-event.php template.

We have a Themer’s Guide that walks through how to customize templates and other functionality that should be of use to you. Please let me know if this helps you make the changes you are looking for.

Hi Marc:

I’m working with the team to see if we can reproduce the behavior you are experiencing. As an immediate next step I would suggest upgrading from version 3.5 to version 3.6.1 as there are several bugs resolved out in the update. To update you can download new versions by accessing the Account Central > Downloads menu item found at the top of the site.

Thanks for your patience

Hi Rob:

Sorry the above didn’t help with your issue. To confirm the issue you are facing is that when you are editing a Page/Post the visual editor no longer is working? Is this correct? Can you send me  a screenshot of your issue just to confirm we are on the same page?

If the Visual Editor is not working than it does look like a plugin conflict. That is why I outlined above to switch your site to the TwentyTwelve or a default WP theme and deactivate plugins. If the issue doesn’t appear in this state that means that WordPress is functioning as expected. If however you are still experiencing the issue you might have to re-install version 3.9 via the update page in the admin.

If the visual editor is working again at this point you should re-activate themes and plugins one at a time and check after each if the issue re-appears. If it does re-appear than you will know if it is the theme or a plug-in that is causing the issue.

I would also suggest that you update to the latest 3.6.1 versions of our plugins.

Please let me know if the above helps to identify the culprit.

Hi René:

Thanks for your patience. I went back to the code base and you are correct the tribe_get_start_date template tag does not read the date display settings. This is an oversight on our part and I’ve logged a ticket to our system to see about adding it. In the mean time you can modify the template to  pass a date format to the function to have it display as you desire.

echo tribe_get_start_date( $event, true, 'j, F Y');

I hope this resolves out your issue and sorry for our oversight with the display settings.

Hi!

Thanks for taking the time to inquire about our plugins! I’m more than happy to answer any and all questions you have. Before going into your questions I just want to mention that you can see a demo of The Events Calendar  and you can download the free version at :http://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar<span style=”text-decoration: underline;”>/</span>. Pro version and other add-ons enable new functionality but the majority of functionality you discussed is available in the free version. Please feel free to download and experiment.

1 – does your plugin use templates or shortcodes or both. I ask this as I need to add events to the home page of my site like here http://27.131.66.24/~larrakia/ (scroll down) and shortcodes would be handy for that.

The Events Calendar uses templates for display. You can use them to display events throughout your site. We have put together some tutorials outlining various customizations and setup that could come in handy for what you are looking to do.

2 – I’d like to have my events page look similar to this – a list view I guess, is this possible (image on the left, info on the right) If so can you show me an example of the type of page layout?

We do support a list view of events and you can customize the template to meet your display needs. You can see a sample on the demo site here. You can see other views by using the View As feature above the event listing.

3 – Can I have a single events page with a featured image at the top similar in dimensions to this page. Images are really important for this site. If so can you show me an example of the type of page layout?

Each Event has it’s own page and you can do featured images, inline images, galleries or modify the content to fit your needs just like any other post/page in WordPress. If you click on a event in the demo site you can see what a standard event page looks like.

4 – do you have recurring events

Yes as part of Events Calendar Pro. The free version does not support recurring events.

Please let me know if the above answered your questions or if you need any additional information.

Thanks again,

– Matthew

Hi!

I’d be more than happy to help with questions you have on The Events Calendar. First I’d suggest that before purchasing Events Calendar Pro that you install our free version of the plugin from : http://wordpress.org/plugins/the-events-calendar/. I suggest you take a look at the plugin first as we don’t modify standard posts. Instead the plugin defines it’s own taxonomies and you create Event instances. These events can be displayed within an overall calendar view as well as integrated throughout your site’s content.

Our site contains a brief overview of what The Events Calendar can do as well as a demo site. Please have a look and if you have specific questions on if our plugin supports certain functionality I would be more than happy to help.

Hi:

Thanks for taking the time to reach out to us here on the Forums. I took a quick look at your website and you are correct that the headers and info are displaying with no bleed and on the left edge of the page. Every site has it’s own look and we don’t expect our default styling to match everyone’s site. For this purpose we put together a Themer’s Guide that outlines how to make changes to the display of The Events Calendar.

Please take a look through the guide and it should help outline how you can make changes to the styles as well as the different pre-built options.

Thanks again for reachout out to us and Let me know if the guide helps you.

– Matthew
