Daniel,

Not much news for now. Current state is: other members of the team confirmed they could reproduce this as well, so I filed it as a bug. I have to wait for someone on the dev team to take a look and confirm it’s indeed a bug or if it’s something intentionally avoided.

I’ll keep this on my radar and let you know when I have any news about it.

Best,
Nico

Hi Martino,

Thanks for reaching out to us and welcome to our support forums! Let’s break this down:

1. Making events the main page of your site: the simplest way to achieve this is via Event Rocket plugin. Once installed go to ‘Settings > Reading’ in WP-Admin, choose a static page for the front page, select ‘Main Events Page’ for the Front Page option and hit ‘Save’.

2. Making Maps the default view: in WP-Admin go to ‘Events > Settings > Display’, enable Map View, then select it as Default View and ‘Save Changes’.

3. Custom view for the map you mean the visual style they applied to Google Maps?

Please let me know about #3 and if #1 and #2 worked as expected,
Best,
Nico

Hi Evan,

Thanks for reaching out and for considering our products for your site!

Events Calendar PRO comes with recurring events functionality, so you can create the recurring event series. While these events are part of the “recurrence series” they will share the information such as Venue or Organizer, event details, etc. What you can do is decouple the Events from the recurrence series and set a different Venue for each one. This way you can create all events at once -saving time on this task- and then edit each one individually. If you need them to be related you can do so with tags!

Do you think this might work for your case?

Please let me know
Best,
Nico

Kathryn,

Thanks for the follow up!

Adding the line should be simple, just adding a couple of lines to the css file of your theme will do the trick. It would be great if you could send me a link where I can see the site markup (posts + events in the listing) that way I can craft the CSS snippet for you. Do you think that’s possible?

Thanks,
Nico

Hi Winston,

Thanks for the follow up!

I believe your woo tickets didn’t use the Woo Commerce checkout process correct?

I think it did, but really not sure what version you where trying back then.

The reason why I am making sure is that before I could not accomplish this and I had to get a refund.

You mean you couldn’t get PayPal adaptive payments to work with the plugin? Or you couldn’t find a way to split the commission?

Rounding up, I think PayPal adaptive payments should play well with WooCommerce Tickets.

Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions about this,
Best,
Nico

Hey Jason,

Thanks for your follow up!

First of all, please bear in mind you are going down a “heavy” customization path, and it will for sure require coding on your side. Don’t expect this to be solved by adding a couple of lines on your functions file! Also note that we can help you getting there, but the work load would be on your side.

“if you can hook in Venues to the search most of the work should be done for you.”

I mean the map functionality is already there! So you won’t have to code that from scratch. Surely you’ll have to override the templates and the ajax call that returns the events -or venues- for the map.

As you say core file editing is not a good idea! I think this customization would require template and js files overrides, for other things hooks & filters may come in handy, but no core modification.

would it also be possible to add in other graphics (eg instead of the red pin that shows up on the google map) — again possible via CSS, filters/hooks / template overrides not touching the core.

Map Markers (pins) can be defined by js when adding those to the map (gmaps tutorial). You’ll need to deregister the js file that adds them (tribe-events-ajax-maps.js) and provide a customized one instead that defines the custom markers.

Hope this helps you get a more defined idea of what the customization process implies.
Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions and I’ll be happy to answer those,
Best,
Nico

Danie,

Just wanted to give you a heads-up on this: another team member confirmed he could reproduce it as well so most probably we are facing a bug. Making sure it’s a legit bug, getting it fixed and finally including the fix in an upcoming release, it’s a process that will take time.

I’ll let you know if it’s a bug indeed and if I can provide you with a quick fix for this, or if that is not a possibility. Really sorry for the inconvenience this may cause.

Best,
Nico

Ryan,

Reaching out to give a heads-up on this. I tried using ngrok on windows and couldn’t get EB working but ‘almost’, I’ll describe the process as you might find it helpful for further testing:

1. Install ngrok.
2. Expose my local site running ngrok.
3. Configured my WordPress URLs to match the one provided by ngrok. You can add those to wp-config.php like this:

define('WP_HOME', 'http://xxx.ngrok.io/site_directory/' );
define('WP_SITEURL', 'http://xxx.ngrok.io/site_directory/' );

4. Logged into WP-Admin via http://xxx.ngrok.io/site_directory/wp-admin/.
5. Created a new EB App with appropriate oauth callback: http://xxx.ngrok.io/site_directory/tribe-oauth/eventbrite/.
6. Input Application and Secret Client Keys in WP-Admin.
7. Clicked ‘Get Authorization’.
8. Allow it in EB.
9. Correctly got back to my ngrok site, but authorization seemed not fail nor to complete.

My conclusion is this is far more complicated than just using an online test site. I’m not familiar with this kind of techniques so not sure why it’s not working, and also not sure if this is secure at all. Further investigation on this will be out of my support scope, but if you are really interested in this working I don’t think it’s impossible. Maybe just using a different ‘tunneling’ service gets this working, but of course not sure at all.

I hope you find this info valuable, and that you understand I cannot spend more time on this.

Please let me know how you feel about it,
Best,
Nico

Howdy Gonzalo,

Thanks for reaching out! Interesting question here, I’ll try to help you out.

When you remove the action, the first value in the array should be a string with class name and the second one point to the method in that function. Now, when you add your own action, as you are using a custom function that’s not inside the class you should just input the function name there.


remove_action( 'tribe_events_pre_get_posts', array( 'Tribe__Events__Filterbar__Filter', 'addQueryArgs' ), 10 );
add_action( 'tribe_events_pre_get_posts', 'addQueryArgsCustom', 10 );

function addQueryArgsCustom( $query ) {
//your code
}


Please give this a try and let me know how it goes,
Best,
Nico

Hey Phil,

Glad to be helping you out on this too!

First parameter of tribe_get_start_date sets the event from which to extract the date. If this is set to NULL, it will use global $post (current post ID), so that’s why you are getting an unexpected result.

Can you try to hook in the event ID there?

return tribe_get_start_date($your_event_ID, false, 'F j, Y - g:i a')


Maybe for testing this out you can manually set that value to see if this is working fine.

Please let me know if this helps you getting around the issue,
Best,
Nico

NP Phil, Thanks for letting me know!

Hi Winston,

Thanks for reaching out to us! I’ll try to help you out on this.

From what I’m seeing at WooCommerce: PayPal Adaptive Payments, this is a checkout option. Most probably it will work fine as what our product does is simply link the WooCommerce ticket to the Event. The checkout process is controlled by WooCommerce so I see no possible conflicts there.

Does this makes sense to you?

Thanks,
Nico

Hi nthomas,

Glad to help you out with this one also.

Can you describe the steps to reproduce this? Maybe it’s a bug that EB 3.10.1 hasn’t fixed yet, but not sure. I would appreciate step by step instructions to recreate this, so that way I can be sure we are doing the same thing and in case it’s a bug I can quickly pass it on to the dev team.

Also in the other thread I’m helping you out with, you mentioned you updated Core and PRO to versions 3.10.1, wich ones are you using here?

Thanks so much,
Nico

Hi anandala,

Thanks for reaching out, and sorry to hear you are experiencing this issue. I’ll try to help you out!

Were events working fine before this happened? Have you installed a new plugin

I found an example of an event not working in your site,but I can access it via ‘ugly’ URL http://www.anandala.org/?tribe_events=learn-to-meditate-intensive-3 but it fails with ‘nice’ URLs http://www.anandala.org/event/learn-to-meditate-intensive-3/. So it seems to be a permalink issue.

Can you please go to ‘WP-Admin > Settings > Permalinks’ and click ‘Save Changes’ to regenerate permalinks? Is there anything else you think could be affecting permalinks? Any cache plugin?

Please let me know,
Best,
Nico

[Nico]

Hi nthomas,

It should work fine for 3.10.1 as well 🙂

Good luck with that, and please let me know how it goes,
Thanks,
Nico
