Hi! I’ve downloaded the update, but it won’t add to my Calendar – it just wants to save or open the file. I think I’m missing something?

predstitans3797: YOU ARE A SAINT! I have had this same problem with 4 sites that use this plugin. Thank you!!!

Hi Barry & Esmi,

I just had a look at AMGill’s site, and I was able to move ahead and backwards in the months in Calendar view – could this be a caching issue?

Also, unfortunately, I am having the same issue on a site I’m helping a friend with: https://www.teamvango.ca/events/ – oddly, if I click March for example, nothing happens – but if I refresh the page, March appears. Any ideas? Much appreciated!

I had a friend of mine look at it yesterday and apparently there’s a conflict in the javascript between thickbox (used by nextgen) and this plugin. After trying everything I could think of, I’ve switched to Event Calendar 3 and everything works with no problems. If you don’t need the big calendar, I would try that instead. (I know it doesn’t solve this problem, but banging my head against the wall didn’t either)

Just trying again, as I’d like to be able to start letting my client use the site with this plugin.

The calendar widget shows the tool-tip for the date if there is an event, but the date itself doesn’t take the user to the event post. If I use the event list instead, the link to the post works.

I’ve tried looking at the code, but the list and calendar are quite different. Is there a solution here that has been done already? I’ve tried turning off all other plugins so it’s not a jquery conflict (not sure if it would be or not).

Many thanks in advance…

It’s back to not working – the tooltip shows up, but clicking on the date no longer goes to the Event Post. Help please! ??

Ahh, thanks Doc – unfortunately I need to make this as simple as possible for others who use the site so I think different authors would confuse them. I’ll keep looking.

Hi Doc! I will try that right now! Thanks for the code, and if it solves the problem I will let you know! I agree that the documentation is a bit vague for this plugin. Everything else about it works wonderfully, so why not provide a few more examples for the beginner/intermediates who want to use it? Thank you again!

Hi Roblagatta: I have tried, but I think I’m not proficient enough in wordpress functions to understand what I need to do? I posted elsewhere in the forums with the code:

<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php query_posts( array('post_type' => 'tribe_events', 'post_name' => 'my-events-category-name'));?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

However, someone has also just replied with the following code:
‘<?php $my_query = new WP_Query(array (‘post_type’ => array( ‘Your Category Name Here’, ‘tribe_events’ ) ) );
while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post();
$do_not_duplicate[] = $post->ID ?>’

Which I will try now and if it works I’ll post again to let others know ??

Hmm, Safari also crashes. I don’t think I have the right taxonomy name maybe? Maybe post_name is wrong?

Anything I can do to keep a fellow wordpresser from doing the ole head-desk. ?? The screen options work on posts pages too, so always check because that might save you a lot of time!

how are you trying to add pictures? Featured Images or in the editor?

Hi Sparky,
If you are using WordPress 3+
Go to your menu Screen Options, and there should be a “Show Advanced Menu properties”. Once you click that, go back to your menu item (once you’ve added it) and click the little drop down. There is now a dropdown to specify new window or tab. Hope that helps!

Hi, I just tried this out and it returns an “unresponsive script error” when I put it in the loop.

<?php the_content(); ?>
<?php query_posts( array('post_type' => 'tribe_events', 'post_name' => 'my-events-category-name'));?>
<?php endwhile; ?>

Any ideas?

I think this has been updated in a new version of The Events Calendar because the-events-calendar.class.php no longer references the code above. It’s too bad too because I’ve been looking for a solution for this very problem for almost 2 hours now. Any thoughts? Is there any way to assign a category template to an event category? I’ve tried the normal wordpress way but no luck. Please help ??
