Sorry, the html is not showing for the Twenty Twelve’s single event page:
article id=”post–9999″ class=”post–9999 page type-page status-draft hentry”A custom post type’s archive page should use the theme’s archive template, if it has. There is a hierarchy in using the template files in WordPress. Every page rendering defaults to index.php if there is no other specified template file for that view. So the events archive page should use the theme’s archive template file also.
You have two options (and other theme specific templates) in Events -> Settings -> Display:
1. Default Events template
2. Default page templateSo the Default page template means that I can use my theme’s DEFAULT page template. But it is not true, because this option is still a custom template with your codes everywhere.
As I have written a lot of times, there is a content filter for WordPress to add custom content: the_content
So we really need an option, where a real default page template can be set, where your extra content is just an extra content added to the content without any code and structure modification.
Twenty Twelve’s default page template is content-page.php. There you can see, that the page’s title is in h1 tags, where your default page template uses h2.
This is an event page with Twenty Twelve and your default page template:

It means your code to generate the content is not standard with WordPress. The way you insert it in a page is not good. You should fix it, because it won’t be compatible with a lot of themes and plugins.
I’m not asking you for Genesis support. I know Genesis well, I can hide all the blocks if I want to do that. I’m reporting a bug, that you should fix! I am reporting, that you are not using the WordPress standard codes, so the code is a mess! I am helping you! I have paid, but I’m doing the research and take time to report you a bug, which affects a lot of WordPress sites.
I have switched to Twenty Twelve and it is using a singular page also for your events page. So it is not an archive page, which it should be!
So the point is, that the plugin needs some fix to work fine. It is not my problem, it is not Genesis’ problem, it is your plugin’s problem. I’m not a professional WP programmer, but I could find out, that the problem is, that your “archive” page is not an archive page.
My previous problem with your “default page template” is the same: you are not using THE default page template. It seems you don’t understand how WordPress’ templates are working.
And the fact that you are using h2 for a page’s title shows, that you don’t understand SEO also. I see, that you are very good at php programming and the plugin is really great in functionality, I can say it is the best event plugin for WordPress right now.
I just don’t understand these simple facts, why don’t you want to use the WP standards. If you do so, your plugin could be compatible not only with Genesis, but with all themes for WordPress. Why don’t you want it? Please tell me, what is the benefit to mess with the codes, when there are built in tools in WP to show content.
This is just the body class replace. That does not help here, because the problem is not with the css. The problem is with the function.
It is strange, that I need to tell you what to do. It seems you don’t know WordPress and web developing.
It will be a long, long fix. I am really disappointed to use your plugin. Unfortunately I am using it in production sites and on client sites, so I can not change easily.
Wow! This is a big step forward. 🙂
If I switch to “Display post content”, than it is working fine. BUT this is not the solution, as this setting is affecting the whole websites look, I mean all the archive pages.
This is a good start for you to fix this for Genesis powered websites. This need to be fixed, as I can not use post content display option.
Even it is problem, that in this page the post-info and post-meta sections are showing. I guess this is not an archive page template. So first, you should set the events page to be an archive page for this custom post type.
If you see the html code for this page, you can see the singular class in the body tag, which means Genesis thinks this is a singular post page, which is false. This must be an archive page.
I have “solved” the event page issue, as I was added an extra to your “after event content” field, when Jonah suggested to do that. So it is fine. I’m sorry to forget this extra code there.
The events page is still broken and I have no idea what to do with it. I even don’t know how this content rendered there. So I’m waiting for a fix or help to make it working.
“I can use the Genesis base theme and don’t see any significant problems”
I’ve switched to the base theme and the problem is still there. Anyway, nobody uses the Genesis base theme, as this is a framework and it is especially for child themes.As I’ve asked Jonah more times, can you please provide me a link to a Genesis powered website, where the events page is working with the default page template?
“I’m guessing you set Events > Settings > Display to use the Default Page Template”
Yes, I have meant that option. I’m talking about this option from the beginning. What am I missing? I’m missing a really default template, where I can use my theme’s default template.For example I’m really-really missing the h1 title, because it is very important for SEO. But I’m actually missing everything and I don’t understand why do you need to mess with your custom codes (in the default template), if WordPress allows you to insert codes in the content with the the_content filter, which is the most recommended way to add extra content.
“Have you updated to our most recent releases?”
I’ve upgraded to the latest version of the plugin, but the event page is still broken. I think you don’t know WordPress, as I see your answers. Do you think my event page is a blog post? It is an event. And it is broken. Only with your default page template, so it must be with your plugin. It is one more reason, why you should use the the_content filter.“If it is still an issue for you with our most recent updates then please create a new thread…”
WHAT? I need to open one more thread??? It is really frustrating what you call support! I opened this thread one week ago, so I have to wait a week to get an answer! This is a paid support only for PRO members. I won’t open a new thread for the same bug.“…this isn’t really a problem that is specific to Genesis…”
It is true. The h1-h2 issue is not a problem, a bug, it is a question. As there is no reason to use h2 tag for a page’s title. I see, that you don’t know SEO as well. I also see, that you won’t change it. I’m really-really disappointed…“It works for me so I am unsure why it’s a problem for you…”
I have switched to Genesis base theme (anyway I was using Genesis’ official child theme before) and it is still broken. Can you please provide a link, where I can see your working events page with Genesis theme and the display option is set to default page template?You are really unhelpful and it seems you even don’t want to solve a problem. The weekly answers make this thread like a neverending story. It is disappointing and frustrating. One of the worst support I’ve ever used.
