[Plugin: Dynamic Widgets] Unable to Disable Widgets with Events Plugin

Without looking to the Events plugin (yet), I guess the events plugin creates a special page which probably is not recognized by DW. When DW does not recognize a page, it falls back into failsave by not following any rules. It would probably need an extension to recognize it.

That’s the weird thing that’s happening is that it’s not using the failsafe where it posts up the basic stuff, but another set of widget rules.

It does recognize “The Events” plugin as custom post times. However it still does not exclude the widget I need excluded from that custom post type page.

I guess you’re talking about the main events page. Did you use the Custom Post Type Archives settings in DW for that?

Yes I did. In fact that was the first thing I tried. It does recognize the Event plugin as it’s own menu system. I can disable widgets for that plugin but only on the individual event page but not on the calendar page.

I’m playing around with every possible configuration and nothing working on the main calendar page.

And it’s an all or non sort of a deal. On the Events menu within dynamic widget if I click on “Show Widget on Events” as yes, then click the individual event that says “Except for: [EVENT NAME]” it doesn’t work. I have to click on “No” to exclude the widget. All or none.

I will see about creating a screencast to show you what I mean.

Maybe putting DW to use the OLD method is the solution in this.
At the DW overview page, click Advanced at the bottom. Tick the checkbox next to “Use OLD method”.
