Placing Ticket Reservation Widget on top right

Hi @gerdski,

Thanks for getting in touch! Absolutely–we’ve built The Events Calendar from the ground up with customization in mind, so users can apply template customizations and functional tweaks as needed to make our products work just how they’d like them. Our Themer’s Guide would be the place to look for information on how to modify templates for different plugin views. Feel free to take a look, and let me know if you should have any other questions as you get started!

I hope that helps! Happy customizing! ??

Thank you very much.

I have read the Themer’s Guide before I’ve asked my question here, and could not find an answer there, so…Yes…I still have a question…it’s the same one:

—
I wonder if it’s possible to place the Ticket Reservation Widget (the one with the big tickes_process button) on top of the sidebar widgets list in Single Events View.
At the moment it’s being placed at the bottom…but nobody will see it there ??

Thanks!

You sure can! To punctuate Caroline’s point, that does require a template override like the ones covered in the theme’s guide. That looks something like this:

• Make a copy of the single-event.php template. It is located in /plugins/the-events-calendar/src/views/single-event.php
• Make a new folder in your theme (or child theme) directory called tribe-events
• Place the copied single-event.php template in that folder

Now that the template is in your theme, you can modify it to suit your needs. In this case, add the widget (and a sidebar) where you would like it to appear and the changes will be reflected in the layout.

Cheers!

Thank you very much.

I have done this already…placing a single-event.php in the template folder.

But this file does not appear to have anything to do with sidebar widgets..it ends at the content footer. The placement and the sorting order of the right sidebar widgets obviously takes place somewhere else.

Can you tell me where this is?

Cheers and thanks!

The default calendar template does not include a sidebar, but you can add one with the template override:

<?php get_sidebar( 'sidebar-name' ); ?>

Cheers!

Hi,

why do I see a sidebar with 4 calendar widgets then?

Cheers,
Gerd

Hey Gerdski

If you alrady see widgets on the single event view, then that might come from your theme. Check in Appearance > Widgets in your Dashboard if you can add it there.

Cheers

My theme is called Avada, and…yes…I can add many widgets in the Widget admin page. But these don’t show up in the event view.

I would like to move a widget, not to add another one.

I see 4 widgets on the right side(bar):

Details
Venue
Organizer (with Google Map)
Tickets (big blue button)

I want to move the Tickets widget from the bottom to the top. How can I do this?

Cheers,
Gerdski

Hi again,

This is driven by the Avada theme totally, so you would need to look into the Avada template files and create an override of the file that creates the sidebar area for the single event view.

Maybe the Avada documentation has something on this. You could check with the theme creators.

Hope this helps. Cheers,
Andras
