CONTENTS shortcode in main content also overwrites text in banners

    I’ve got PageLines, and I’ve posted that issue in their forum too – PageLines support assumes the issue can only be resolved by the Events Mangager side of the party.

    So it goes: I’ve added the CONTENTS shortcode to a page with text above and below, no problem. The list is displayed as expected. Below the main content there is a PageLines banners section. The banners appear, with photo and banner title, but the banner text is overwritten by the Events Manager plugin with the events list.

    Here’s a screenshot.

    Some quotes from PageLines support:

    they might be able to provide an additional line of code you can add which will stop it overriding the banner.

    sounds like their code is mimicking something which is included in the core banner code. Keep us posted let us know what the developer says.

    Thank you!

  • Hiya,

    It’d help if you could provide a link to your site so we can see this in action.

    However, what I will say is that EM expects to be able to override that entire page.

    What I’d suggest is that you add something like the following to your functions.php;

    function my_em_add_events_custom_content( $content ) {
	if ( page('events') ){
		$pre = "<p>Add this before the events</p>";
		$post = "<p>Add this after the events</p>";
		$content = $pre . $content . $post;
	}

	return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_em_add_events_custom_content' );

    That will, on your main events page, add the “pre” text before the events and the “post” text after the events.

    You can remove either as per your preference. In your case, you’d probably want something like this;

    function my_em_add_events_custom_content( $content ) {
	if ( page('events') ){
		$pagelines = "pagelines code here";
		$content = $content . $pagelines;
	}

	return $content;
}
add_filter( 'the_content', 'my_em_add_events_custom_content' );

    That should do it.

    Of course, it’s possible this is more of a HTML/CSS issue in which case a look at your site will help with figuring that out.

    Cheers,
    Phil
