Hey Carlos: thanks for the follow-up here. I can see the value in what you’re seeking, definitely. My guess is that a sidebar option would be best, too, but I can see – if we structured it right – something below the event listing but above the comments.
Marie: that is awesome to hear…I was not aware, but maybe that means we can find a way to eventually work it into our Eventbrite Tickets add-on (currently in the works, hopefully out this week). It wouldn’t be in the first release but my guess it’d be quicker to integrate there than into PRO directly, at least at first.
Either way, thanks to both of you for the suggestions. This has been logged as a proposed feature in our projects system; no guarantees it’ll make the cut or when, but it is up for discussion as we finish finalizing 2.1 and I’m going to make the case based on what’s in this thread. Cheers!
Hey Dan. Thanks for the heads up here; sorry to hear that you’re having issues. This is a weird one and I’m unable to recreate this on my 2.0.5 install so it sounds like something else is at play. Here’s what I would suggest right off the bat:
Here are a few suggestions for this particular problem that I can think of right off the bat:
* It could be a permalinks-related issue. Resave your permalinks page (Settings -> Permalinks) to reset them.
* Similar to the note above, do the same – re-save without changing – your Reading page (Settings -> Reading).
* Make sure you’re running the latest version of the plugin (2.0.5) for both free & PRO — these need to be in sync or it won’t function properly.
* Check that there aren’t any earlier versions of The Events Calendar or Events Calendar PRO active anywhere on the site. If they’re present, deactivate them.
* Make sure you’re running the latest version of WordPress.
* Try to identify whether this is a conflict with another plugin. You can do so easily by deactivating any other plugins you’ve got active and checking whether the issue persists.
* If it isn’t a plugin conflict, it may be a theme one. If after deactivating all other plugins the issue persists, please revert to the default 2011 theme and test whether it’s an issue there.All that to say….if the issue still persists, particularly after the last two steps, let me know and we’ll do what we can to assist. Apologies for the inconvenience in the interim.
Ah, thanks for confirming. That’s definitely not the norm, no – events that are passed should be pushed off the list view at /events, and from the widget as well. Any chance you’ve got a link to a site where I can check this out? Are you running the 2.0.5 code for both The Events Calendar and PRO?
Robert: have you modified this code at all? If so, want to share what you’ve got? We can try to take a look from there.
Henry, any thoughts on why Robert may be having issues with the code?
Hey Melanie! At this point, the only officially-supported frontend submission option is the Community Events add-on (https://theeventscalendar.com/shop/wordpress-community-events/), which should be out over the next month or so.
You definitely have the option to toggle back and forth between a list and grid view. Users on the frontend can view either, and you can set the default of what lives at /events as either list or grid view, too.
Hope that helps! Let me know if I can elaborate at all.
Hi there Andrei. Thanks for the note here. Would you want the “XXX” to automatically change from month-to-month, or are you envisioning something static there that remains at all times? Let me know that clarification point and I’ll do what I can to point you in the right direction from there. Thanks!
Hey Andrei. For the broader events list, past events are automatically kicked onto a “Past Events” page. It can still be accessed on the frontend but isn’t what your readers see by default when they visit the calendar. Are you saying you want to remove the “Past Events” link entirely?
The widget should be pushing past events out by default; once an event has finished, it will be removed from the widget. What are you seeing different? Got a link I can check out to see these issues in action? I’ll try to diagnose best I can from there.
Hey Jean-Philippe. Thanks for the heads up here. I checked this out with our dev team, and they were wondering whether it’s possible that you deleted the “Editor” role from your site?
In the current 2.0.5 release, there is an issue where that message will be generated if a user has deleted the Editor role from their list of capabilities. We’ll change that for the next release but let me know if that could be the cause of your issue here. In the interim the best way to fix it would be to either re-add the Editor role, or comment out the Editor capabilities block from lines 698-711.
Hope that helps and sorry I couldn’t offer up more. We’ll have a stable fix here included in 2.0.6.
Hey Maikel. Thanks for the note here. I understand what you’re saying here – yes, on the backend, the events do default to having the furthest out events at the top of the page. The reason being that if you had events appearing with the oldest first, you would gradually start to have a list of more and more events that had already passed. If you had 100 events, by the time the first 50 had passed you’d need to scroll through those first 50 just to get to #51, the first actually-future event (Since we don’t have a “Past Events” section, like the “Draft”/”Published”/”Scheduled” tabs atop the page, they all still live on the main page there).
That being said we have had a few requests for what you’re noting here over the past couple weeks. So I suspect there’s enough demand that we’ll add such a feature into a future release. Hope this helps and sorry I couldn’t offer up more. Let me know what else I can do.
Ah, I see what you’re saying. Thanks for the follow-up Carlos. So you just want to add these as additional venue/organizer data that appears on the frontend.
That’s an interesting request. Offhand, I’m not sure how to do it or if it’s even doable in the current release. But Jonah may have an idea – let me get him to see what he can share, if he does.
That’s a solid idea. I haven’t heard of anyone doing this yet (community members may prove me wrong there), but I would suggest checking the Showcase thread to see if it shows you what you need: https://theeventscalendar.com/support/forums/topic/showcase-2-0/.
Out of curiosity, how would this work? Someone would visit it and hit the “RSVP” button, and their Facebook picture or Gravatar would show as an attendee? Let me know what you’re thinking or if you’ve got an example so I can share this with the team.
Hey Andrew. Thanks for reaching out here. If I’m understanding the issue here, it sounds like what you’re requesting may already be baked into the Advanced Post Manager (which is automatically integrated into the plugin here). That plugin’s standalone version is right here: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/advanced-post-manager/. Does the documentation file provided in there give you what you need to create a new column accordingly?
Hi there Joan. So long as you’ve got a single/personal license (which it sounds like you have, if I’m readin the note correctly) you should be fine there. We will have MU pricing for broader networks coming down the road but if you’re using on one site with sub-sites at the moment a single license will be fine. As the license isn’t actually required to run the plugin (it is just needed for updates & support), you won’t lose any functionality without it.
Hope that helps. Let me know if not. If you’re a non-profit yourselves, let me know and we can work out getting you the appropriate license for the right price 🙂
