Hi Hunter,

Thank you for your reply. I tested for conflicts and the issue seems to be with the plugin “Redirection”. I searched the WP support forums and indeed, there is a history of conflict between this popular plugin and TheEvents Calendar.
The thread I found goes back 4 years…and it provided me with the answer.
https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-the-events-calendar-single-page-event-not-working

I followed the advice of user world rider who said, in the Redirection settings, he disabled a modified post group in the “Groups” tab, and the issue was solved. That’s what did it for me. I don’t yet know if there will be other issues with the Redirection functionality.

Hope this helps someone else…

regards,
Robin

Hi Cliff,
Thank you for your suggestions. I apologize for my delay in responding.

I’m afraid your solution referencing https://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Filter_Reference/template_include
is beyond my current skills. I kind of understand the idea but don’t really know how to implement it, as I don’t know php.

What’s frustrating to me is that on the 2.x version of the Events Calendar that I was using up until about 6 weeks ago, the pages displayed perfectly, as I describe in my OP. The Calendar Grid view used a full-width template page and the single event views used a default page template with a sidebar, where the event list widget appeared. And I have no recollection as to how I set it up to work that way!

The themer’s guide you reference shows me how to select and copy the plugin files into my theme, but again, not knowing php I don’t know how to modify them to suit my needs.

Any other suggestions?

thank you,

Robin

Hi Brian,

I went to the guide but can’t find the line quoted in my “single-event.php” file:

<h3 class="tribe-events-month-event-title entry-title summary"><a href="<?php echo esc_url( $link ) ?>" class="url"><?php echo $title ?></a></h3>

The guide directs us to paste some code before or after this code, but it doesn’t appear in my file. Where should the amended code go?

[Robin]

Great. Thank you Geoff!

[Robin]

Thank you all for your assistance…similar to Sylvia, the issue seems to have resolved itself on my site. I didn’t have a chance to do the troubleshooting steps, and when I looked again, the proper dates were there in the widget. So, I have no explanation, but for the time being anyway, it all is functioning properly.

best regards,

Robin

Since the OP I made a change in the view/template settings which are now, 45 minutes later, visible. It’s still not styled correctly but I can fix that (I think). But my concern is the time it takes to reflect any settings changes, if they are reflected at all.

thanks again for any insight on this issue.

@dostie and kristy, I also added my styles to my theme’s customized CSS and they do indeed overwrite the tribe styles as expected. Thanks for sharing this. FYI I wasn’t using the skeleton version and it still works fine. I don’t use sidebars in my theme so that wasn’t an issue for me.

Thanks Cynthia, I had seen those hints, apparently added sometime this afternoon. I looked for the body class, and pasted these changes into the tribe-events.css, which is in a folder named “tribe-events” in my theme folder. I wanted to just remove the filter box, and style the headline.

Here is a screenshot of “before” the changes were made. https://www.dropbox.com/s/zxpz352p32vts9x/Screen%20Shot_3.0_nostyle.png
I have “Tribe Events Styles” selected in my Basic Template Settings, btw.

This screenshot shows the “After” state:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/77tul242oizhpn0/Screen%20Shot_3.0_style.png
changes that were inexplicably made in addition to those I spec’d in the css…note the content wrapper no longer has its original styles (no max width, no padding, etc.), the date and address meta text has changed styles to bigger and bolder, and the month has lost its styling as well.

I’d like to point out the the .css file referenced, tribe-events-full.min.css, is unformatted–such that all styles appear on Line 1…very hard to decipher anything when you’re trying to pinpoint a particular style.

I just put a “tribe-events” folder in my theme folder. Inside it, I put some very simple custom CSS and titled the file “tribe-events.css”. Just to start small, I changed the line height and alignment of the .tribe-events-page-title.
Doing so removed and or changed the styling of the rest of the content. This doesn’t seem to be the way to go.
Please tell me if there is another way I’m supposed to go about changing css. thanks very much.

Thanks Leah…I appreciate the effort and the link, but not being a developer it’s pretty much Greek to me, and again, I’m looking to incorporate the whole events list on a page. I realize you all are busy but my searches turned up users’ requests for this feature going back 3 years–essentially the lifetime of this plugin. Other helpful users tried to cobble together solutions, with varying, and now outdated, results. I’d really like to see this option explained as part of the current Themer’s Guide, if it can’t be built-in, right now.

Hi Neill,
I don’t know how to post screenshots here or access pastebin, so I hope this is just as clear.
In the current event “Listings” page, I was able to get event date and times to show up this way when the start date and end date are the same:

Date: July 11, 2013
Time: 7:00 pm – 8:30 pm

I’d like to be able to show the date and times in the same format for an event in the single event page. Right now it looks like this:

Start: July 11, 2013 7:00 pm
End: July 11, 2013 8:30 pm

Occasionally I have multi-day events so I’d like to be able to retain the option to show the start date and end date separately, but most events take place on one day and this format is a bit too clunky.

Thanks for your help,

Robin

OK Barry, thanks.

I’m not confident with Javascript, and if it doesn’t allow me to make and save changes to recurring event occurrences anyway, I won’t be trying that option.

If I understand this correctly, if I want to add a bit of unique content, such as the words “Week 2” or “Week 3” etc., on an occurrence of a recurring event (in my case, a series of classes) it’s not currently possible without “breaking” the series, and I should just set up each event individually. Can you please confirm that for me?

[Robin]

Hi Barry, Yes, a few days ago.
