What is scary about this is that after the update to 3.0.2, this event disappeared from the full calendar and the widgets in the sidebar. But the post for it still showed below the calendar. I just saw Leah’s reply above and clicked on the link for the post that I had in my report to see if maybe the double post had been fixed in the update and I got a 404 Page Not Found! So now it is very confusing. No event in the calendars, a copy of the post on the home page, the original information is still in the Events admin page, but instead of the event being double posted in the page at http://events.stcwdc.org/event/stc-wdcb-summer-vision-day-meeting/, it is completely gone. Can I get it back? It is a this Monday event.
@Robin, A few more hints have been added to the Themer’s Guide. Specifically near the top in section 2. “Locate the files you wish to edit.” Perhaps if you can find the body class for the file you want to edit, it will make the CSS change just to that element and not change everything else; I’m hoping. But, I agree, the guide needs a lot more guidance about the CSS classes and how to modify specific individual elements such as a widget or the title of a widget or view.
I have this problem too. I just updated to The Events Calendar 3.0.1. & The Events Calendar Pro 3.0.2 and POOF! the event scheduled for Monday is missing from the calendar. I checked the Events Post and it is still there but there is nothing in the calendar widget in the sidebar, nor in the Upcoming Events list widget, nor in the main calendar.
I need this back because the event is this Monday, 15 July 2013.
Unfortunately that didn’t fix it for me in Twenty Eleven using Default Page Template or any other template I’ve tried to create to get the sidebar to work properly. It appears but below the content.
I was trying to set off @Jonah’s words with [code] but somehow the [/code] got included in the link at the end. There isn’t a way to edit these posts.
@Jonah West,
It would help a lot if the details you provided above on 6 July were added to the Themer’s Guide. It isn’t much of a guide without some “how to do it” instructions. Here is the information you gave above that would be helpfup to all:
[code]Currently there is only one template option available within our plugin in the Events > Settings > Display screen. Based upon that option you will need to do some additional work to get the layout the way you want on any given page with a mixture of PHP, HTML and CSS. Fortunately, each events page contains a page specific body class which you can use to make some of your CSS styling a bit easier. For example, when on the calendar/gridview, there will be a body class of .events-gridview – on the list view there will be a body class of .events-list – this means that you can apply different CSS styling by prefixing your CSS with those classes, i.e.:.events-gridview #sidebar {
display: none;
}
.events-list #sidebar {
float: left;
width: 300px;
}You can also modify the selected template’s markup to adjust things as well. To do that first find out what template you are using in Events > Settings > Display. If you have selected the Default Events Template, the plugin will use the /wp-content/plugins/the-events-calendar/views/default-template.php template file for the display. You can override and edit this by making a copy and placing in an ‘tribe-events’ folder in your theme.
All of the other Events Template options will use one of your available theme page templates (page.php, full-width.php, etc.) which you can also edit.
Based upon what Events Template option you’ve chosen, you will need to use these conditional wrappers to help you conditionally display or not display certain markup on each corresponding events page: https://gist.github.com/jo-snips/2415009%5B/code%5D
Yes, add this statement to the Themer’s Guide:
The stylesheets you can override are:
tribe-events-full.css
tribe-events-skeleton.css
tribe-events-theme.cssand let us know what those three CSS files style. There are 18 total CSS files in this plugin.
Thanks. That snippet works for removing the 404 Not Found from the page title. Now to solve the 404s reported in the Google Webmaster tools for the empty calendar pages (as discussed above by @Neil).
Thank you. I think what would really help this document is another chart that shows the relationship between all the CSS files and which view templates they affect. I’ve found 18 different CSS files. Where does one begin?
Another thing that would help would include the “An Overview of Frontend Views” video and the illustrations you have in the New User Primers. Because version 3 is so completely different and any customization done in version 2 is no longer applicable, we are all new users as far as the types of views available. I had essentially ignored the primer because I thought I was an experienced user but that video helped a lot to show me what the various views looked like.
Some additional information. I was just successful with getting the Events Calendar to appear on my home page with the help of @neillmcshea. When I go to the home page, the page title is fine even though the calendar is empty. But if I click on the navigation above the calendar to go back to June, then I get the 404 Not Found added to the page title. If I then click on the navigation to go to July, I go to the Events Calendar page and the page title is OK.
This is reproducible.
If I then click on the tab in the theme’s navigation bar to go back to the home page (page title is OK) and then click to go back to June, the 404 Not Found reappears. Hope this helps.
Yes! Now it works! Thanks. See http://events.stcwdc.org/
Hi @Neil, I am not using the All in One SEO plugin. I did at one time a few years ago and had several problems with it–I can’t remember what now. My host at that time told me to remove it because they had banned it from their system.
It is interesting that you are getting the 404s for empty dates. Our calendar this month is currently empty of events but so is the next month. Yet when I navigate forward to August, the 404 goes away from the title. After navigating to August and then back to July, there is no 404 in the page title on the July calendar either. Only when you first come to the current calendar. Strange. Something in the plugin is acting like your All in One SEO.
